MICRODERMABRASION
FACIAL IN PLAINVIEW, NEW YORK
Microdermabrasion for smoother, refreshed, rejuvenated, and younger skin.
Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive procedure to renew overall skin tone and texture.
This dermatological procedure gently removes the top layer of the skin to reduce hyperpigmentation, treat clogged pores, and improve the appearance of skin affected by acne, sun exposure, and signs of aging, including fine lines and wrinkles.
Microdermabrasion is a much less invasive facial treatment than dermabrasion, which is technically regarded as a surgical procedure used on more severe skin problems.
This procedure uses a special applicator with an abrasive surface to sand away the thick outer layer of the skin. The key result of this activity is rejuvenated and refreshed, younger-looking skin.
BENEFITS OF MICRODERMABRASION
Rediscover Your Best Skin Yet
Microdermabrasion in Long Island is a more gentle way to treat various skin concerns. It is an excellent option for those with sensitive skin or not ready to undergo more invasive procedures like lasers, injections, and peels.
Microdermabrasion helps remove pore-clogging and complexion-dulling dead skin cells, revealing fresher, smoother skin. This ultimately improves the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne.
In addition, the treatment can also help stimulate the production of collagen, which tightens and strengthens the skin, giving it a more youthful and radiant look.
Other benefits of microdermabrasion include improving:
- Acne scars
- Stretch marks
- Age spots
- Hyperpigmentation
- Sun damage
- Light scars
- Uneven skin texture
- Enlarged pores

HOW DOES MICRODERMABRASION WORK?
Transform Your Skin in Just a Few Simple Treatments
Microdermabrasion is an in-office procedure that takes less than an hour. This is a minimally invasive procedure that does not require the use of anesthesia.
There are a few different ways that microdermabrasion works. The most popular methods are:
Diamond-tip handpiece
A diamond-tip handpiece gently exfoliates dead cells on your skin while immediately suctioning them off.
The depth of the abrasion generally depends on the pressure applied by your caregiver, who sets it prior to the procedure, depending on your unique needs.
Crystal microdermabrasion
This treatment uses a crystal-emitting handpiece to gently spray fine crystals on the treatment area to rub away the outer layer of the skin.
In this procedure, dead skin cells are also suctioned off immediately, just like with the diamond-tip wand.
Hydradermabrasion
This newer technique involves crystal-free exfoliation and infusion of certain products into the skin.
One of the primary results of this procedure is the stimulation of collagen production.

Microdermabrasion facial in Long Island at the Nordic MedSpa is a quick and convenient procedure that only takes about 30 minutes.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Your medical aesthetician will first cleanse your face before the procedure.
This involves removing makeup and all the dirt on the surface of the skin. You will lie on a reclining chair or bed for the procedure, which should be done within 30 minutes.
You can expect to see noticeable results immediately after the procedure.
RECOVERY PROCESS
There is little to no downtime after microdermabrasion. You should be able to return to your daily routine immediately after treatment.
Your caregiver will take you through post-treatment care instructions to enable you to protect your new image. For instance, you may have to avoid topical medication for at least the first 24 hours.
Depending on the severity of your skin concerns and goals, you may require additional sessions to enable you to achieve your desired results.
