Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Microdermabrasion.

Microdermabrasion is safe for most skin types, including oily and combination skin. Sensitive or rosacea-prone skin may require a gentler approach or alternative treatments. Our estheticians assess your skin and customize intensity to ensure safety, comfort, and optimal results.

At Sculptress, our microdermabrasion facials run 60–75 minutes. That includes consultation, cleansing, the exfoliation treatment, targeted serums, and a soothing mask. We finish with personalized aftercare guidance to protect and maintain results.

Many clients notice smoother texture and brighter tone within days. Collagen stimulation and cumulative improvements appear over several weeks with repeated sessions. Your esthetician will recommend a treatment plan and timeline based on skin concerns and desired results for optimal outcomes.

Temporary redness, mild sensitivity, and light flaking are common and typically resolve within a few days. We provide soothing products and aftercare instructions to accelerate recovery. Contact us if you experience prolonged irritation, severe discomfort, or signs of infection.

Microdermabrasion helps improve mild acne scarring and surface discoloration by resurfacing the skin. Deeper scars or significant pigmentation may require combined therapies like chemical peels, microneedling, or laser. We’ll assess your concerns and recommend a customized plan for best results.

Avoid direct sun exposure, wear broad-spectrum SPF, and use gentle, hydrating products for several days. Skip active exfoliants and retinoids until skin calms. Follow the esthetician’s tailored aftercare routine and contact us if you have concerns or unusual reactions.
