Smooth, Soft, & Radiant Skin
Microdermabrasion treatment at The Retreat Restorative & Aesthetics is a professional exfoliation that removes the damaged cells from the outer layer of the skin. The treatment gives your skin a smooth, soft texture and renewed radiance.
About
Microdermabrasion is a popular, non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that gently exfoliates the outermost layer of dead skin cells.
At The Retreat Restorative & Aesthetics, we use microdermabrasion to brighten dull complexions, smooth skin texture, and improve the appearance of fine lines, sun damage, and mild acne scarring. This treatment promotes collagen production and cell turnover, resulting in a fresh, more youthful glow.
Using a specialized handpiece, microdermabrasion removes the top layer of skin to allow for better absorption of skincare products and reveal a softer, smoother complexion. It’s a quick and effective treatment with no downtime, making it an excellent option for busy individuals looking to enhance their skin’s appearance.
Benefits
Microdermabrasion benefits include the reduction of common skin concerns, such as:
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Sun damage
- Melasma
- Mild scars, such as those caused by acne
- Dark spots and age spots
Candidates
A microdermabrasion facial is safe for most skin types. Pregnant women and those who are breastfeeding can have microdermabrasion when they are not ideal candidates for chemical peels and other procedures.

Corresponding & Complementary Procedures
Microdermabrasion works beautifully on its own, but when combined with other treatments, it can take your skincare results to the next level. Consider pairing it with these options for even greater benefits:
- Facials: A hydrating facial after microdermabrasion can soothe and replenish your skin, leaving it soft and refreshed.
- Chemical peels: For those looking for deeper exfoliation, microdermabrasion can be combined with light chemical peels to amplify results.
- Microneedling: If you want to target deeper skin concerns like acne scars or more pronounced wrinkles, microneedling can work in conjunction with microdermabrasion for comprehensive skin rejuvenation.
- IPL Photofacial: To address pigmentation and sun damage, combining microdermabrasion with an IPL Photofacial can deliver smoother, brighter skin.

Microdermabrasion FAQs
Microdermabrasion uses tiny crystals or a diamond tip to gently exfoliate the top layer of dead skin cells. A vacuum system simultaneously removes the debris, leaving behind fresh, healthy skin.
