Traditional Microdermabrasion
Classic crystal or diamond-tip microdermabrasion removes the outer layer of dead skin cells (stratum corneum, 10-15 microns) for immediate skin polishing and radiance. Perfect for maintenance and gentle skin improvement.
MicroLaser Peel by Dr. Moody
Our signature treatment combines the benefits of microdermabrasion with precise laser technology. The MicroLaser Peel removes 20-50 microns of skin, making it the perfect step between traditional microdermabrasion and deeper peels.
Combination Treatments
Dr. Moody may recommend combining microdermabrasion with other treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy for enhanced results tailored to your specific skin concerns.
Series Treatments
For optimal results, most patients benefit from a series of microdermabrasion treatments spaced 2-4 weeks apart, with maintenance treatments every 3-6 months.
Microdermabrasion effectively treats fine lines, rough texture, enlarged pores, sun spots, superficial acne scars, and dull complexion. It’s also excellent for regular skin maintenance, pre-event preparation, and enhancing the effectiveness of your skincare products by improving product penetration.
Microdermabrasion is generally comfortable, with most patients describing a mild scratching or vibrating sensation. The treatment is well-tolerated and requires no anesthesia.
Most microdermabrasion treatments take 30-45 minutes, making it an ideal lunchtime procedure. You can return to work or normal activities immediately afterward.
While you'll see immediate improvement after one treatment, most patients achieve optimal results with a series of 4-6 treatments spaced 2-4 weeks apart, followed by maintenance treatments.
Traditional microdermabrasion removes 10-15 microns of skin, while Dr. Moody's MicroLaser Peel can remove 20-50 microns for deeper resurfacing. The MicroLaser Peel provides more dramatic results for patients needing deeper skin renewal.
