Microdermabrasion is one of the most natural ways to exfoliate the skin without the use of harsh chemicals. The process works by using very fine microcrystals (or diamond tips) to remove the upper layer of the skin. We use microdermabrasion to exfoliate your dead skin cells, which helps the production/turnover rate of new skin, resulting in firmer, more youthful-looking skin.
We are committed to bringing results, unlike any others. We provide options for all skin types and treatment plans based on your skin needs and goals. Book a free consultation with our aesthetic doctors to make your first move to your ideal skin.

Improve skin tones and skin texture. Give a radiant look to your skin.
Hyperpigmentation. By treating hyperpigmentation, microdermabrasion can brighten and rejuvenate tired skin.
Though mostly used to treat the facial area, microdermabrasion can also be performed on other parts of the body such as the chest or the back.
Types of Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion with Crystals: Our sodium bicarbonate crystals use compressors to vacuum particles to suction up dead skin. Crystal microdermabrasion ablates the skin tissue by combining heat and friction.
Microdermabrasion with a Diamond Tip Wand: The microdermabrasion with diamonds is more popular currently. The process is similar to crystal microdermabrasion but can be more accurate. The fine diamonds adhere to the end of the microdermabrasion wand to scrape across small sections of the skin and remove dead, damaged skin tissue. Once the skin has been exfoliated, a vacuum tool will be used to suction away dead cells.

Microdermabrasion is pain-free and is very safe as it is not using any chemicals or laser resurfacing, which often calls for downtime. Microdermabrasion ablates the skin gently to address wrinkles, skin discoloration and skin texture by removing the top layer of skin. Unlike dermabrasion, microdermabrasion only treats the top layers of the epidermis so there is hardly any discomfort involved. At Lazaderm, we use only diamond tips or sodium bicarbonate crystals. It doesn’t require numbing cream for the treatment.
There is no downtime associated with microdermabrasion. You can go about your daily activities and apply makeup post-treatment.
The peeling of dry, dead flaky skin can happen within a week of procedure and can be relieved or resolved by using moisturizer. You might also notice that your skin gets a little red but this will resolve very quickly. To maximize the benefits of the procedure, use a cold compress, anti-inflammatory cream, gentle cleanser and serum to keep your skin elastic and hydrated. Stay away from exfoliating products, acne skin care and harsh chemicals such as benzoyl peroxide, alpha hydroxy acid, beta hydroxy acid, retinol for one or two days. Avoid rubbing, scratching or picking the flaky skin. We would recommend you use sunblock immediately after the treatment to avoid sunburn and limit sun exposure. Sunbathing or tanning products should be avoided for at least seven days for the healing process.
Healthy patients who are concerned with aging signs, light lines and wrinkles, uneven texture, sun-damaged skin, and acne might be good candidates for microdermabrasion.
Microdermabrasion might not be right for:
For those seeking treatment for deep scars or wrinkles, birthmarks, or tattoos, microdermabrasion might not achieve your desired results. Chemical peel or light/laser treatments might be a better option for more intensive treatment. Therefore, depending on your skin concern and treatment areas, our skin care expert might recommend more effective alternatives to ensure your aesthetic goal.
Rosacea sufferer. People with rosacea have red and sensitive skin so they should avoid using any kind of exfoliation or facial scrub.
Those with skin infections or other skin irritation need to consult doctors before going ahead with the procedure.
Acne sufferers taking Accutane should seek for doctor’s approval first.
Pregnant women
Those who have had recent procedures that left their skin too sensitive including filler injection, Botox, laser treatment or medical conditions.
It takes approximately half an hour for a microdermabrasion procedure, with additional time needed for additional areas.
Yes. Microdermabrasion can also be a great treatment for the hands, neck and décolleté areas.
Yes, you can get both treatments on the same day, but the microdermabrasion must be performed first. The combination of procedures will likely give you better and longer-lasting results.
At-home microdermabrasion might offer a cheaper option to address uneven skin color. However, the microdermabrasion machine for home use doesn’t contain as strong suction power as those used at cosmetic centers.
Therefore, if you are looking for improvement in the appearance of skin discoloration, sun damage, age spots, acne, etc., DIY microdermabrasion will not get you the desired result.

Dr.B is the best! She really knows what she is doing. I came to her after struggling with other dermatologists who would only put me on an antibiotic. and a cream and send me on my way. Dr. B walked me through options I had, provided me with a great skin care product line, and overall cared about the appearance of my skin. I would 10/10 recommend Dr.B and Lazaderm to anyone who has been struggling with acne and other skin issues !!

This was my first time doing anything like this and I was a nervous wreck!!! I have pretty high anxiety anyway so as you can imagine my stress/anxiety levels were through the roof. Dr. B was nothing short of amazing!!!! I did my part the best I could letting her know I was nervous. I kinda shut down a bit when the anxiety hits, but she was super attentive to my needs. She talked me through every step and acknowledged what I was feeling and allowed me the room to not only feel it but get through the anxiety the best way body and mind knew how. I was allowed to be a nervous wreck and that was also a first. She took great care of me and as a result I walked out of her office feeling way more confident, in my looks and in myself, than when I had walked in. Ive lived my entire life without an upper lip, well up until today that is. She does incredible work and I cannot thank her enough!
