The Alphadermis Deluxe Microdermabrasion is a multi-step microdermabrasion that uses diamond tip coupled with suction, gently buffs loose and dead skin cells and clears blocked pores resulting in a smoother, fresher and brighter looking complexion.
The procedure uses a special applicator with an abrasive surface to gently sand away the dead skin cells on the upper layer of the epidermis (the top layer of our skin) and suction them off the skin.
You will not have downtime or a recovery period. Some patients’ skin turns pink or red. The skin can swell a bit. This should subside within a few hours post treatment. We suggest strictly following the aftercare.
Although it is uncommon, there is a chance for your skin to have some flakiness or a new breakout post treatment. This is completely normal due to the dermabrasion bringing impurities to the surface. As long as you do not pick or pop your skin, this will be the natural healing process after the microdermabrasion. It is a minimally invasive skin procedure that improves the health of the skin. To minimise dryness and flaky skin, use moisturiser consistently after the treatment.
Microdermabrasion is a very comfortable, non-invasive skin treatment. Most clients feel very little to no pain during their treatment. The sensation when having a microdermabrasion treatment can be compared to that of an exfoliating scrub, vacuuming the skin combined with the feeling of a light facial massage.
Do not use topical agents that may increase the sensitivity of your skin such as retinoids, exfoliants, topical antibiotics or acids 5-7 days prior to your treatment.
Avoid being in the sun for at least 24 hours prior to your treatment.
Avoid sun exposure – You should avoid direct sunlight for atleast 24 hour after the treatment. No sun beds/solariums.

Don’t use skin products containing ‘ACTIVE INGREDIENTS’ – It is advised that any active ingredients aren’t used on the treated skin for 3 days post treatment. – e.g Retinol. Hydrating and reparative products are strongly advised.

Avoid activities or situations that make you sweat – it is not advised to exercise or do any hard activities for 24 hours post treatment. Saunas and gym environments can be harmful and may cause adverse reactions, due to open pores and bacteria. Swimming is also not advised within the first 24 hours of your treatment.
