What is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a safe, painless skincare treatment that uses a diamond-tipped wand to gently exfoliate the outer layer of your skin. By removing built-up dead skin cells, it unclogs pores, smooths texture, and improves the appearance of fine lines, uneven tone, and mild acne scars. At Refine Skin Kare, Karen’s precise technique ensures a comfortable experience suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Benefits of Microdermabrasion

  • Smoother Texture: Refines rough or uneven skin.
  • Youthful Glow: Minimizes fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Clearer Pores: Reduces enlarged or clogged pores.
  • Fades Scars: Diminishes mild acne scars and dark spots.
  • Radiant Skin: Boosts brightness and luminosity.
  • Better Absorption: Enhances skincare product efficacy.
  • No Downtime: Resume your day immediately.

What Makes Microdermabrasion Different?

Unlike chemical peels or at-home scrubs, microdermabrasion uses mechanical exfoliation for a controlled, physical polish without harsh chemicals. It’s ideal for reviving dull, congested skin and enhancing the absorption of your skincare products post-treatment.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

At our Franklin Park studio, Karen starts with a thorough skin cleanse and assessment. Using a professional-grade diamond-tipped wand, she gently exfoliates your skin with precise, controlled strokes. You may feel mild scratching or suction, but the process is comfortable and relaxing, lasting 30–45 minutes. Karen finishes with calming serums and SPF to protect your fresh, glowing skin.

Aftercare & Results

Microdermabrasion requires no downtime, though slight redness or sensitivity may occur, fading within hours. Protect your skin with SPF and avoid sun exposure to maintain results. You’ll notice a brighter, smoother complexion immediately, with optimal results from regular treatments.
