Dr. Kipervas Laser and Cosmetic Center

Microdermabrasion is a skin rejuvenation treatment for fine lines, altered pigmentation, sun damaged skin, stretch marks, acne scarring, clogged pores, and much much more.

It is a painless, 20-30 minute treament performed with a jet of fine mineral crystals. These crystals are vacuumed across the surface of the skin to remove dead and sun damaged skin. The process stimulates collagen beneath the skin surface. During the treatment a tingling sensation is felt and a pink, smooth glow is seen upon completion.

There is no down time after the procedure, you may return to work immediately following a treatment.

The goal of microdermabrasion is to improve the condition of your skin. In order to achieve the best possible results, multiple treaments may be required. The final results may not be apparent until after completing the treatment plan.

1. Do not use GLYCOLIC ACID, RETIN A, or CELLEX C products for 24 hours before and after the procedure.

3. Remove make-up before treatment.

5. If there are open wounds on areas to be treated, please notify the doctor.
