Then the doctor will provide specific guidelines about eating, drinking, smoking, and medication before the treatment.

How is microdermabrasion treatment performed?
Microdermabrasion treatment does not require anesthesia and should be done by a licensed professional. There are different types of instruments used and depending on it, procedures for microdermabrasion treatment differ.
In the first method, a diamond tip handpiece is used. This device gently moves across your face and exfoliates the skin thoroughly. The dead skin cells are suctioned off right away. This device can be used on the sensitive areas of the face such as under the eyes etc.
The second type of procedure is called a crystal microdermabrasion. In this procedure, a hand-held device sprays tiny crystals on the skin, these crystals scrub the dead skin cells, and an attached vacuum suctions these dead skin cell off.
A third and newer method of microdermabrasion treatment is called hydra dermabrasion. It combines crystal-free exfoliation with the dermal infusion of products. It boosts collagen production along with improving the texture of the skin.
What are the risks associated with microdermabrasion?
You may experience redness, swelling, and tenderness post-treatment. That will subside after a few hours. Sometimes there is a chance that bruising may occur. The skin may feel dehydrated and dry after the treatment. However, dermatologists will recommend appropriate products and ways of taking care of skin post-treatment.
What to expect from the microdermabrasion treatment?
You will see immediate results after the treatment. As your skin is thoroughly exfoliated and treated, you will see the new, fresh, and younger-looking skin. You will see noticeable results in your skin from the very first session and these results will last for a long time.
