Taking the health and beauty of your skin to new heights with microdermabrasion as an add-on service
If you have dry and lacklustre skin, age spots and large pores, fine lines and wrinkles, or depressed areas such as light scarring, microdermabrasion may do what all the creams and store-bought kits only promised to do — actually treat these conditions. Individuals in the greater Oshawa, Newcastle, and Courtice, Ontario areas are in luck, because The Facial House in Whitby offers powerful microdermabrasion treatment options and combinations to achieve even more dramatic results in your appearance than microdermabrasion can achieve on its own.
What is microdermabrasion?
This aesthetic service involves using a special device to exfoliate the skin. Our professional products, technologies, and skills make a world of difference, as we can support safety, comfort, and optimal results.
How does microdermabrasion work?
The microdermabrasion process involves applying tiny, exfoliating crystals to the skin’s surface. These crystals are gently streamed over the treatment area via a handpiece. As these exfoliating crystals are removed, the dead, damaged skin cells go with them. Over time, these cells tend to build upon the skin’s surface. This is due to changes in how quickly the cells turn over, or are renewed. When it takes longer for new cells to replace old ones, your complexion can look dry, dull, tired, mottled, and lined. With microdermabrasion, we encourage and reveal fresh, new skin cells. So, your skin looks and feels healthier, smoother, and more evenly-toned.

How do you combine microdermabrasion with other treatments?
The microdermabrasion procedure is gentle enough to be safely combined with other types of treatment. At The Facial House, we offer microdermabrasion as an “add-on” treatment with our professional facial services. You may add microdermabrasion to any of these services, as long as the appointment is longer than 40 minutes. When combined with other treatments, we may be able to support faster results and certainly better results. After all, two complementary treatments are generally better than one!
How many treatments will I need?
Again, this depends on your specific treatment plan, including any procedures that are paired with microdermabrasion. Other factors that can affect the total number of treatment sessions required to reach your goals include the type of aesthetic concern and the severity of that concern. It’s also important to follow any post-treatment or after-care instructions provided by our Whitby, Ontario team. Good skincare in general supports sustained and optimal results. As a gentle, non-invasive procedure, clients like that the process is associated with few side effects and risks, and little to no downtime. This step in your appointment can also be completed in just 20 minutes and is a good value ($25 as an add-on).
