Contact UsWhat is Microdermabrasion?
When you run your hands over your face, does your skin feel soft and smooth or rough? If rough, the outer layer of your skin may be clogged with damaged skin cells that can make your complexion dull and uneven. At Oak Hills Med Spa & Wellness Center in Tyler, TX, Dr. Hope Short offers medical spa services, like nonsurgical skin resurfacing using microdermabrasion. Fast and effective, microdermabrasion removes the outer layer of dead and damaged skin so your face is brighter and healthier. This procedure may be used independently or with another skin treatment, such as a chemical peel or dermal filler, for greater results. At your consultation, Dr. Short will create a unique treatment plan based on your specific skin concerns and goals.

Our Tyler, TX patients enjoy multiple benefits from their microdermabrasion treatments, often returning for more. Some of the benefits this facial yields include:
- Balances and evens out the skin tone
- Smooths out rough or uneven skin texture
- Removes damaged and dead skin cells that remain on your skin's surface
- Provides you with a bright, glowing complexion
Who is a Candidate for Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a safe and effective treatment for most skin types and concerns. It can be beneficial for those with:
- Sun damage
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Acne scars
- Age spots or hyperpigmentation
Microdermabrasion is usually performed on the face, although it may also be great for your chest, neck, and hands. However, if you have active acne, open wounds, or a skin condition like rosacea, microdermabrasion may not be suitable for your needs. Dr. Short will thoroughly evaluate your skin during a consultation to determine if microdermabrasion is the right treatment option. We want to ensure your safety and satisfaction with your results.
How Is Microdermabrasion Performed?
Microdermabrasion is performed in our office after a thorough consultation to decide what procedures will provide the best results. For the treatment, you will relax in a comfortable chair as your skin is prepared. The handpiece will pass over your skin as the tool both polishes and vacuums the crystals and dead skin. Although the process may feel a little rough, it should not be uncomfortable so you shouldn't need a local anesthetic or numbing cream. The microdermabrasion will be applied evenly in the needed areas with more caution around the eyes. Once the treatment is complete, the skin will be cleaned to get rid of any residue before a moisturizer with sunscreen, selected for your skin's needs, is applied.

Microdermabrasion FAQs
How much does microdermabrasion cost?
Your microdermabrasion cost can be discussed during your first appointment with a skincare professional. Once you talk about your goals and they examine your skin, your personal treatment plan can be created. Oak Hills Med Spa & Wellness Center often has specials on skin treatments like microdermabrasion as well as discounted packages if you buy several sessions.
Should I get microdermabrasion, dermabrasion, or a chemical peel?
Based on your concerns and goals, a skin care professional will help you determine if microdermabrasion, dermabrasion, or a chemical peel is right for you. Microdermabrasion clears away the outer layer of damaged and dead skin cells to make your complexion look smoother and healthier. You can get these same results from a light chemical peel. Dermabrasion or a stronger chemical peel can help if your issues are in the deeper layers. The time you spend in recovery might also influence which treatment you want since microdermabrasion requires little to no downtime.
How often should I get microdermabrasion treatments?
To start, you may need 5 – 12 microdermabrasion treatments about 2 – 4 weeks apart to rejuvenate your complexion. After that, you may move to treatments every 1 – 2 months to maintain your skin's health. In your initial consultation, your technician will create a plan with recommendations for your goals that detail how often you should schedule appointments.
