Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Microdermabrasion (Class Pass).

Microdermabrasion mechanically exfoliates the outer skin layer, smoothing texture and stimulating cell turnover. Multiple treatments spaced weeks apart progressively reduce roughness and unevenness, revealing softer, more refined skin with improved tone and clarity.

Yes—when performed by trained technicians, microdermabrasion is generally safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin. We assess skin type first and may adjust intensity or recommend alternatives if active acne, rosacea flares, or open lesions are present.

Most clients experience mild redness and sensitivity for 24–48 hours after treatment. Apply soothing moisturizers, avoid heavy makeup for a day, and use SPF. Rarely, temporary bruising or increased sensitivity can occur; contact us if concerns persist.

Typically, a series of 4–6 sessions spaced two to four weeks apart yields optimal improvement. Maintenance treatments every 1–3 months help preserve results. Frequency depends on skin goals, severity of damage, and individual response.

Before treatment, avoid aggressive exfoliants, retinoids, and prolonged sun exposure for several days. Afterward, hydrate skin, use gentle cleansers, avoid direct sun, and apply broad-spectrum SPF daily to protect new skin.

Some clients notice smoother skin immediately, with more significant fading of discoloration and scarring after several sessions. Collagen remodeling continues for weeks, and cumulative treatments produce the most noticeable, longer-lasting improvements.
