Microdermabrasion
Works like a vacuum cleaner for your skin… sucks out debris and impurities revealing brighter skin.
How it works
Microdermabrasion is designed to achieve deep exfoliating and tone-improving results on all skin types. This minimally-invasive resurfacing treatment is used to renew overall skin tone.Â
Microdermabrasion is essentially a vacuum cleaner and diamond exfoliant in one sweep. The exfoliator loosens dead skin cells and sloths off debris sitting on the surface of the skin, whilst the vacuum suction pulls out impurities trapped in pores. Once the old is removed, it reveals brighter skin instantly.Â
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin treatment that works wonders on blackheads, whiteheads, congestion and dry skin build up. Micro can be enjoyed alone or mixed in with other treatments or modalities to prepare the skin to absorb ingredients better. See below for our best options.

FAQ
How much downtime is there?
There is no downtime for this treatment. You may experience slight redness after the treatment but this usually subsides within 24 hours.
We recommend the Yellow LED Light Therapy after this treatment to help reduce the redness and provide anti-ageing benefits. Light mineral makeup can be applied directly after the treatment.
Why should I have this treatment?
This procedure can be used to treat a number of skin conditions and complaints and results can be seen following just one treatment. As further treatments are undertaken, results become even clearer to see and feel. The action of Microdermabrasion promotes skin rejuvenation, producing new collagen. It does this by providing a superior exfoliation and aids lymphatic processes deep within the skin. This is much more powerful than a standalone cosmetic product application.
What areas of the body can Microdermabrasion be used on?
Microdermabrasion can be used on nearly all areas of the body. The most common treatment areas include the face, décolletage and neck, upper arms and upper back.
How many Microdermabrasion treatments are recommended for optimal results?
The number of microdermabrasion sessions you require will depend on your skin and your goals. Normally, several sessions will be beneficial over a selected period to keep the skin glowing and youthful in appearance. Every session lasts around twenty minutes and can be performed every two to three weeks. The number of sessions ranges typically from six to twelve. A professional from Dr Saras & Co will be able to discuss this with you in more detail at your Consultation.
Does it hurt?
Rest assured, our Microdermabrasion treatment doesn't hurt. You will feel some slight suction and a polishing sensation which is not unpleasant – in fact, many clients find it quite relaxing!
Is this treatment suitable during pregnancy?
Yes. This treatment is safe to receive whilst pregnant. However, please provide any relevant information regarding your pregnancy to your local clinic upon booking in case this treatment coincides with other services which use contraindicated topicals.
