Overview
If you run your hands over your face, does your skin feel soft and smooth or rough like sandpaper? If rough, the top layer of your skin may be packed with dead skin cells that are making your complexion dull and uneven. At ZO Skin Centre® in Newport Beach, CA, we offer cosmetic services, like noninvasive skin exfoliation with microdermabrasion. Fast and effective, microdermabrasion treatments remove the outer layer of damaged skin so your complexion is brighter and healthier. This procedure can be used alone or with another cosmetic treatment, like a dermal filler or chemical peel, for more dramatic improvements. During your consultation, a ZO® skin care professional will create a unique treatment plan for your specific skin concerns and cosmetic goals.

Best Candidates
Microdermabrasion treatments can improve the appearance of surface skin blemishes, including uneven texture, fine lines, dull skin tone, scars, sun damage, and clogged pores. It is safe for people of all skin tones and types that want healthier, clearer skin. These treatments are most often performed on the face, but it can also benefit your chest, neck, and hands. This procedure should not be performed on skin that has an open wound or if you have a chronic condition, like acne or rosacea.
What to Expect
By appointment, microdermabrasion treatments are performed in our ZO Skin Centre® in Newport Beach after a thorough consultation to determine what services will provide your best results. We will invite you to relax in a comfortable chair as your skin is cleaned and prepared for the treatment. Then, your ZO® skin care professional will pass the microdermabrasion handpiece over your skin as the tool both polishes and vacuums off the debris. While the treatment may feel odd, it should not be painful so you would not need a numbing cream or local anesthesia. We will make sure to treat your skin evenly and gently in sensitive areas (like the thin skin near your eyes). Once the treatment is complete, the skin will be lightly cleansed to remove any residue before a moisturizer, selected for your skin type with sun protection, is applied.
After a microdermabrasion treatment, you can resume your normal activities as long as you wear sunscreen or another form of sun protection since your skin will be sensitive. Your face should feel smoother and your tone should be brighter and even. To maintain your results, we recommend getting these procedures every 4 – 6 weeks. Many ZO Skin Centre® in Newport Beach patients notice that after microdermabrasion treatments, their home skin care products (especially lotions and creams) absorb more easily into their skin for better results.
Brighter Days for Your Skin
Get your healthiest, brightest complexion with nonsurgical microdermabrasion treatments at ZO Skin Centre® in Newport Beach. Since microdermabrasion is a surface skin treatment, you may consider combining it with other procedures. Many patients combine microdermabrasion with a facial or an injectable wrinkle relaxer treatment, like BOTOX®. We would be happy to help you select the right services for your skin. We encourage you to ask questions about your skin and your aesthetic problems during your consultation so your technician can create a treatment plan that meets your needs.
