Microdermabrasion

Are you frustrated with the overall quality of your skin?

Are visible signs of aging such as wrinkles or sun spots becoming more prevalent with time? Could your complexion benefit from reduced pore size, acne scars, or unwanted blackheads?

If so, you may want to think about getting regular minimally-invasive microdermabrasion treatments at Manhattan Aesthetics.

How Does Microdermabrasion Work?

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive, painless procedure that will remove the upper layers of dead skin, revealing a vibrant and softer complexion. By stripping away the top layer of skin (called the stratum corneum), our doctors can help you achieve a clear, beautiful complexion. The procedure increases rapid cellular turnover and gives the skin a much-needed boost in collagen production.

Our office uses a sophisticated diamond-tipped (crystal-free) handpiece to perform your treatment, as it is a natural mineral and will not irritate your skin. Microdermabrasion is often performed prior to facials, peels, and laser treatments helping yield the best possible results for these procedures.

Am I A Good Candidate for Microdermabrasion?

You may be a good fit for microdermabrasion if you’d like to combat mild-to-moderate aging or sun damage. The procedure is less invasive than traditional dermabrasion techniques and is safe for all skin types and tones. By gently exfoliating the topmost layers of skin, patients can take advantage of total facial rejuvenation with minimal downtime.

Microdermabrasion is an amazing treatment that yields many benefits including;

Minimizing enlarged pores
Softening fine lines and wrinkles by smoothing the skin
Reducing and evening out blemishes
Exfoliating the skin to reveal a healthy glow
Concealing dark spots and blackheads

If you are searching for a microdermabrasion provider, finding practitioners with experience and excellent technique should be your highest priority. Not all microdermabrasion treatments are equal, and in the wrong hands, the results of your treatment can be catastrophic. All our microdermabrasion providers at Manhattan Aesthetics have received the highest level of training possible to ensure a safe and effective treatment.

How Long Does a Typical Treatment Take?

When you receive a microdermabrasion treatment, our doctors will begin by performing a comprehensive skin evaluation. We will then clean and tone your skin, and hot steam will be applied to open up your pores. A diamond-tipped wand is used to polish your skin, removing bacteria, debris, and dead skin cells, all of which are sucked back into the handpiece. Microdermabrasion treatments require 30-60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.

PATIENT TESTIMONIALS

"Yesterday I tried Thermiaesthetic which is ThermiSmooth Skin Tightening. I ran over on my lunch break and LoLa who was the Esthetician couldn’t have been nicer! She rubbed a ton of gel on my lower face and neck with my clothes covered with towels then came the funny device. I was nervous as she said I might be a little red after, but I wasn’t at all! The treatment itself was pleasant and I almost fell asleep I was so relaxed! Then the gel was cleaned off about 25 minutes later and then I was good to go! I went back to the office and they were none the wiser! My skin already looks tighter although she recommended another couple of treatments. Which at the price point is affordable. If you need a little lift with no down time I can’t recommend it enough! Plus everyone at Manhattan Aesthetics was delightful!"*

"My experience getting SculpSure at Manhattan Aesthetics was top of the line. The people there are incredibly friendly and the office is spotless and gorgeous. The process of SculpSure is much more efficient than Cool Sculpting, it is less painful and takes less time. I was targeting my abs and as mentioned, the first 5 minutes is challenging but once I was acclimated to the heating and cooling sensations (plus my tech did massage my legs during) it was easy and I was done in 25 minutes. Afterward there was no pain or redness so I decided to do more applicators on my lower back (love handles). The follow up is to simply massage the area twice a day and drink lots of water. It is non-invasive and though I just had it done yesterday, I literally have NO after pain and I am excited to see the results! Five stars for a great experience at Manhattan Aesthetics."*

"I had coolsculpting last year and never got much of a result so decided to try sculpsure at Manhattan Aesthetics. I did 8 applicators targeting my abdomen and love handles. Layla my technician warned me the first 4 minutes would be uncomfortable so she distracted me by keeping me company and massaging my leg. After this it was it was easy, painless and actually kind of fun. I have to say the procedure was dramatically faster and less painful than coolsculpting and saw an incredible result. The best part was no downtime whatsoever-the next day I did feel sore like I did an intense ab workout. Definitely better than liposuction-sculpsure 5 stars Layla 5 stars Manhattan Aesthetics 5 stars"*

"I am totally addicted to Manhattan Aesthetics! Chelsea and Craig are so pleasant, kind and helpful. It’s always so nice to see them. The space is gorgeous. Both Lola and Natalie are great!! I couldn’t be happier with the first procedure I have received from Lola. Results were visible weeks before the suggested 6 week mark. I am currently undergoing the ThermiSmooth and will have to wait out the results but I will come back to update. I want to try the microneedling and photofacial next. I am addicted to Manhattan Aesthetics and the wonderful staff here. I came in through a groupon offer and I have no intentions of straying."*

"I am absolutely happy with the service I received at Manhattan Aesthetics. Everyone there is super nice, very friendly. Their office is pretty nice and clean. They have these candles at the front desk that smell fantastic and the melody makes you feel relaxed. I definitely recommend this place to anyone."*

"My experience was nothing short of amazing! the entire staff, specifically Craig, Chelsey and Natalie could not have been more informative, helpful and caring! I learned the hard way that body contouring does in fact work after a long painful expensive bout with coolsculpting at skinney medspa. I then purchased the 4 applicator special at Manhattan Aesthetics for the sculpSURE laser. After 3-4 weeks my flanks were dramatically less bulky with a very noticeable definition. I have since treated my inner thighs and outer thighs. Everything about my experience and the procedure has been phenomenal!"*

"Manhattan Aesthetics is 5 stars the knowledge of the staff is second to none and I could not be happier with my results. I was referred by a friend and have done both sculpsure and trusculpt and am extremely pleased with the result. Natalie was unbelievable in recommending the best possible treatment to ensure I not only lost my stomach but tightened the skin as well. Chelsea is amazing and went above and beyond to accommodate my schedule and make sure I was seen without a wait."*

What Results Will I See?*

After microdermabrasion treatments, patients can expect stretch marks, acne scars, and enlarged pores to be less obvious. Increased collagen levels will reduce the appearance of sun-damaged skin and even out overall skin tone. Fine lines and wrinkles will gradually fade as cellular turnover occurs.

One treatment may be enough to address mild complexion issues. However, the majority of men and women need approximately 3-6 sessions spaced 1-week apart to get the initial results they want. Once you’ve met your skincare goals, we recommend maintenance treatments on a monthly basis.

Is There Any Downtime?

No downtime is needed to heal or recover from microdermabrasion treatments. There are very few side effects associated with the procedure but some patients experience slight redness for several hours following treatment. Mild peeling can occur for deeper treatments. Sunblock is encouraged for up to 48-hours post-treatment. Otherwise, you can get back to your normal routine immediately.
