Microdermabrasion for the face reduces signs of premature ageing and saving both your complexion and the time spent searching for that miracle cream. You may be running out of time in your average day to care for your skin but you shouldn’t have to run out of options. We explore whether the DIY home kit or Microdermabrasion treatments is a wiser investment in giving you long term radiant skin so you can look and feel your best all year round!
What is Microdermabrasion?
Minimally invasive, Microdermabrasion treatments focus on exfoliating the skin by
- Encouraging cell turnover
- Reduce acne scarring
- Repairs and restores youthful skin
- Evening out skin tone
How does Microdermabrasion work?
Using a diamond tipped wand, we gently exfoliate the skin’s topmost layer, removing dead skin cells and microscopic debri through a gentle vacuuming process. This clears congested pores, dull dehydrated skin, blackheads, textured skin as well as promotes cell turnover.
Is Microdermabrasion the right treatment for me?
We tailor treatment programs according to your skin priorities. For sessions shorter than a lunch break, there’s the Micro Express and Micro combined with LED Light Therapy.
We get it – everyday life catches up to us as fast as dull, lacklustre skin does. With a range of treatment programs, there’s a program that’ll suit your lifestyle. With quick start and maximum results, the program is valid for a year allowing you to treat yourself (quite literally) when you want!

At-home microdermabrasion kits seem to provide a cheaper cost per treatment in comparison to Microdermabrasion treatments at Results Laser Clinic. However, there are several factors that you need to consider before clicking “Add to shopping cart!”
- The grade and purity of the diamonds used in the microdermabrasion wand
- Experience of the person performing the microdermabrasion treatment
- Whether aftercare support is provided
Incorrect use or substandard equipment can leave you with irritated skin which can leave you prone to breakouts.
Unlike at home DIY kits, Microdermabrasion Treatments are performed by a qualified clinical therapist using a diamond tipped wand, to ensure that your exfoliation journey is as smooth as your skin to-be.

From start to finish: Soothe, Protect and Nourish
Aftercare is just as important as the actual treatment process itself. Post treatment to soothe any redness or sensitivity, we recommend Results Active Recovery Gel as a soothing gel. To further nourish and protect your skin, Results Active Protect SPF50+ is essential in your skincare routine. Lightweight and moisturising, it can be used by itself long past your treatment as it’s specifically formulated to be used in conjunction with skin treatments but able to be used by itself – we LOVE it!.
