About the treatment

About Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion at Elume Medspa in Fairfax, Virginia is a non-invasive exfoliating resurfacing treatment performed by our licensed clinical team.

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment designed to exfoliate and rejuvenate your skin, leaving it smoother, brighter, and more youthful. By gently removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells, microdermabrasion stimulates cell renewal and improves the effectiveness of your skincare routine.

The treatment

How Does Microdermabrasion Work?

Microdermabrasion devices spray fine crystals (or uses a diamond-tip applicator) to remove the outer layer of dead skin cells, while a vacuum system gently suctions away debris, revealing smoother, healthier skin.

This process stimulates blood flow, encourages collagen production, and promotes skin renewal, resulting in a brighter and more youthful appearance.

Pre-Treatment Preparation

On the day of your appointment, your skin will be thoroughly cleansed to remove all traces of makeup, oil, and impurities, ensuring a clean and sterile treatment area.

If needed, your provider will apply a gentle exfoliating solution to prepare the outer layer of your skin for the microdermabrasion process. Before starting, your provider will confirm your treatment plan, explain each step, and ensure you are comfortable and relaxed.

Exfoliation Treatment

During the treatment, your provider will use a handheld microdermabrasion device to exfoliate your skin, removing the outer layer of dead cells with fine crystals or a diamond-tip applicator. A vacuum system simultaneously clears debris and boosts circulation.

The procedure is non-invasive and painless, with a mild scratching or suction sensation as the device moves across your skin. Your provider will focus on areas of concern, such as fine lines or scars, ensuring an even treatment in 30–45 minutes.

Hydration & Protection

Once the exfoliation is complete, your provider will apply a soothing serum or hydrating mask to calm your skin and replenish moisture. This step is critical for restoring balance and enhancing the overall results of the treatment.

A broad-spectrum sunscreen will also be applied to protect your freshly exfoliated skin from sun damage. Your provider will discuss any immediate post-treatment sensations you may experience, such as slight redness or sensitivity, and explain how to care for your skin to optimize healing and results.
