Through preparing your skin with a Starter Facial and our cosmeceutical products, your skin will not only tolerate our Advanced Treatments, but achieve the skin you have always wished for.
Microdermabrasion In Melbourne
What is the difference between young skin and older skin? For many people, the image of a young person is one that includes a radiant, fresh glow from their skin, while that of an older person is typically less resplendent and a little more dulled.
The reason for this difference is fairly obvious, of course. Young skin has experienced less exposure to the sun and pollutants while older skin bears its years in wrinkles, scars, spots and lines. Fortunately, microdermabrasion in Melbourne gives residents the chance to rekindle the glow in their skin and prepare your skin for the next steps in your skin journey.
Superior Microdermabrasion Treatments in Melbourne
Here at The Aesthetic Lounge, we are specialists in delivering medical-grade microdermabrasion treatments, unlike any microdermabrasion treatment you have had in the past. When performed correctly this simple and highly effective treatment has the potential to rejuvenate and brighten the skin. By removing the top layers of damaged and dull skin we eliminate impurities and dead skin cells in the process. The net results is a brighter glow and skin that is much clearer and highly receptive to skincare products and further skin treatments.
Our therapists have over 15 years’ of experience each delivering such treatments from our boutique Bayside skin clinic. We have seen the incredible effect that this non-invasive treatment can have and we have invested in the best of technology and learning to afford you a professional experience unlike any you have experienced before.
What Else Does Microdermabrasion Achieve?
With your skin looking and feeling healthier as a result of all the dead cells and impurities having been removed, this enhances the ability of your skin cells to absorb the skincare products that you opt to use, or that are prescribed for you by our team of experts.
We only ever recommend products that are active prescriptive cosmeceutical grade rather than cosmetics, so the combined effect of your treatment and the follow-up regime is sure to deliver the best results possible. Clinical trials have been completed for all skincare products as well as treatments, so you can feel confident in our recommendations.
If your skin is prone to enlarged open pores, this may be as a result of acne and congestion. Once the pores become clogged, they enlarge leading to uneven skin texture and most likely prompts you to reach for makeup to conceal it and unknowingly make your skin condition worse. However, undertaking the best microdermabrasion treatment available in Melbourne can help you reduce the size of the pores and improve blood circulation in the skin, which results in instantly healthy, radiant and even skin tone.
Microdermabrasion is not just for those that have dulled skin but is a highly effective treatment for anyone with acne, acne scarring, hyperpigmentation and wrinkles, or people looking for acne scar removal in Melbourne. It is a very safe procedure and the recovery time is relatively short when compared to alternatives such as laser treatments or some chemical peels.

What Is Microdermabrasion?
Our two Microdermabrasion modalities, diamond tip and crystal, both remove dry, dull, dead skin cells from the outer surface through a physical buffing of the skin combined with suction, however both are very different treatments.
Our diamond tip micro, stimulates your skin’s lymphatic system, circulation, oxygen and nutrients to the surface for an instant healthy glow. A great, yet gentle, treatment for all skin types and skin colours including; dry, dehydrated, sensitive and lacklustre skins.
Our crystal micro intensely exfoliates thickened, sun damaged and ageing skin to resurface fine lines, open pores and pigmentation, revealing a resurfaced, firm and toned youthful complexion.
