Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive exfoliation treatment designed to improve the texture, tone, and clarity of your skin. This gentle yet effective procedure can address a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, sun damage, acne scars, and dullness, revealing a brighter, smoother, and more youthful complexion. Located in Carmel and Greenwood, Hamilton Facial Plastic Surgery, led by double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Mark M. Hamilton, M.D., F.A.C.S., offers microdermabrasion treatments for men and women in and around Indianapolis, Indiana.

What is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a skin resurfacing procedure that removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells to promote the growth of fresh, healthy skin. Using a device equipped with fine crystals or a diamond-tip applicator, the treatment gently buffs away imperfections while simultaneously vacuuming away debris. This process stimulates circulation and encourages collagen production, enhancing the skin’s natural rejuvenation process.

How Much Does Microdermabrasion Cost in Indianapolis, Indiana?

Microdermabrasion is an affordable way to rejuvenate your skin and requires no downtime. The cost of your treatment will depend on your specific needs and the number of sessions recommended. While many patients notice improvements after just one treatment, a series of five to six sessions spaced a few weeks apart is typically recommended for the best results. We accept cash, checks, and major credit cards.

What are the Benefits of Microdermabrasion?

  • Smooths Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Encourages collagen production to soften signs of aging.
  • Improves Skin Texture: Buffs away roughness for a velvety-smooth finish.
  • Brightens Dull Complexions: Removes dead skin cells to restore a healthy glow.
  • Reduces Pore Size: Helps unclog and minimize the appearance of enlarged pores.
  • Fades Sun Damage and Age Spots: Gently resurfaces skin for a more even tone.
  • Improves Acne Scars and Blemishes: Reduces the visibility of scars and promotes clear skin.
  • Enhances Skincare Absorption: Prepares the skin to better absorb serums and moisturizers.

What is the Microdermabrasion Treatment Like?

During your microdermabrasion session, your skin will be cleansed to remove makeup, oil, and impurities. Depending on your skin’s needs, a fine-crystal device or a diamond-tip applicator will be used to gently exfoliate the outer layer of skin. Simultaneously, a vacuum suction system will whisk away dead skin cells and debris. The treatment is typically painless and takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

How Long is Microdermabrasion Recovery?

Microdermabrasion requires little to no downtime, making it a convenient option for busy schedules. You may experience slight redness or a mild tingling sensation immediately after the procedure, which usually subsides within a few hours. Detailed post-care instructions will be provided to ensure optimal results. For the first 24 hours, it’s recommended to:

  • Avoid heavy makeup,
  • Refrain from direct sun exposure and apply sunscreen, and
  • Use gentle, hydrating skincare products.

By the next day, most patients can resume their normal routines, enjoying smoother and brighter skin.

Who is a Good Candidate for Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is safe for all skin types and ideal for individuals looking to improve mild skin imperfections without invasive treatments. It’s particularly effective for those dealing with:

  • Fine lines and early signs of aging
  • Sun damage and pigmentation issues
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Mild acne scars

However, patients with active acne, rosacea, or other inflammatory skin conditions may require an alternative treatment. A consultation with our licensed aesthetician will help determine if microdermabrasion is right for you.

Is Microdermabrasion Painful?

Microdermabrasion is a comfortable treatment, often described as feeling like a light massage or gentle scratching sensation. The treatment is non-invasive and requires no numbing agents.

Will I Need Multiple Treatments?

While noticeable results are often visible after just one session, a series of five to six treatments spaced 2–4 weeks apart is recommended for optimal and long-lasting improvements. Regular maintenance sessions can also help sustain your results and keep your skin glowing year-round.
