How Does Microdermabrasion Work?
The microdermabrasion procedure gently exfoliates the skin using fine abrasive crystals delivered through a negative-pressure system. These crystals are propelled onto the skin, buffing away dead surface layers to reveal fresh, vibrant skin beneath. At the same time, a vacuum suction removes excess crystals while stimulating blood circulation, boosting collagen production, and enhancing overall skin tone and texture. This quick, non-invasive treatment requires no downtime, making it ideal for those with busy lifestyles.

What to do after a Microdermabrasion Treatment
After a microdermabrasion treatment, avoid direct sun exposure and solariums for 5-10 days, using an SPF of 30 for protection. Refrain from waxing, hair removal, and facial treatments for 7-14 days. Avoid strenuous activity, including exercise and saunas, for 24 hours. Don’t use exfoliating products for 3-5 days or as directed. If scabbing occurs, don’t pick at it and consult your clinician for guidance on proper post-peel care and product use.
What our Clients are Saying
Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive procedure that helps to rejuvenate overall skin tone and texture, and can help with a variety of skin concerns, such as improving the appearance of skin affected by acne, wrinkles and sun damage.
The procedure is fast and efficient, and involves gently sanding away the outer layer of the skin with a special applicator that uses an abrasive surface.
Microdermabrasion deeply exfoliates by removing the thick, outer layer of the skin (stratum corneum) to reveal the fresher skin underneath, unclogs and cleans out pores to reduce their appearance, stimulates collagen and elastin production by stimulating blood circulation, and improves skin appearance by helping to fade acne scares, fine lines and wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation caused by sun damage.
Microdermabrasion is an effective skin treatment procedure for addressing a variety of skin concerns, such as:
- Acne, blemishes and congestion
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Age spots, brown spots and hyperpigmentation
- Enlarged pores and blackheads
- Dull skin complexion
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Stretch marks
Microdermabrasion and HydraFacial are both skin treatments that exfoliate the skin to treat skin concerns such as acne, dullness, and the visible signs of ageing.
However, they differ in approach – microdermabrasion uses a physical, diamond-tipped exfoliation tool while HydraFacial uses liquids and suction to exfoliate and infuse serums.
While microdermabrasion treatments provide more effective deep resurfacing, HydraFacial treatments may be more suitable for hydration, as well as treating sensitive skin. The best way to determine the right skin treatment for your skin type and specific skin concerns is to book a Visia Skin Consultation.
Yes, microdermabrasion is generally safe for most skin types. However, people with sensitive skin, active acne, or certain skin conditions like eczema or rosacea should consult a professional to ensure it’s appropriate for their needs.
Microdermabrasion is generally pain-free. Some people might experience a mild tingling or a sensation of light scraping during the procedure, but it isn’t uncomfortable or painful.
Results are often visible immediately after a microdermabrasion treatment, with smoother, brighter skin. For long-term improvements, such as reduced fine lines or pigmentation, a series of treatments is recommended.
The frequency of microdermabrasion treatments depends on your individual skin needs and goals. Many clients opt for monthly sessions to maintain optimal skin health and appearance. It's best to consult with the professionals at Vitality Laser & Skin to determine a personalised treatment plan.
The cost of a microdermabrasion treatment at our Geelong laser and skin clinic is $145.
