🌿 What is Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive, mechanical exfoliation technique that removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells. At Lore Beauty, we use a gentle diamond-tip microdermabrasion wand, which buffs away dead skin while suctioning debris and stimulating circulation.

The result? Instantly smoother, brighter skin and a refreshed, polished glow.

💫 What is Microdermabrasion Good For?

Microdermabrasion helps address a variety of common skin concerns, including:

Dull or uneven skin tone
Dry or rough texture
Fine lines and early signs of ageing
Mild acne scarring or pigmentation
Clogged pores or congestion
Sun damage and superficial pigmentation

It’s also ideal before a special event when you want your skin to look and feel ultra-smooth and makeup-ready.

✨ What to Expect: The Sweet Smoothing Facial

At Lore Beauty, our Sweet Smoothing Facial is designed to be more than just a treatment—it’s a sensory experience combining results with relaxation.

Here’s what you can expect during your appointment:

Consultation & Skin Analysis
We begin with a brief consultation to assess your skin type and discuss any concerns or contraindications.
Deep Cleanse
Your skin will be double-cleansed using gentle, natural-based products to prep it for treatment.
Microdermabrasion
Using our diamond-tip wand, we exfoliate the surface of the skin while the vacuum suction helps remove dead cells and boost circulation.
Soothing Mask & Massage
After exfoliation, we apply a calming mask tailored to your skin needs and treat you to a relaxing scalp massage.
Hydration & Protection
Your facial is finished with nourishing serums, moisturiser, and SPF to protect your fresh new skin.

🛁 Aftercare Tips

After your facial, your skin may feel a little sensitive—this is completely normal. Here’s how to care for it:

Avoid sun exposure for 48 hours and wear SPF daily.
Skip retinol or exfoliating acids (AHAs/BHAs) for 3–5 days.
Use gentle, hydrating skincare—think soothing serums and barrier-repair moisturisers.
Avoid hot showers, saunas, or sweating for 24 hours post-treatment.
Don’t pick or scratch at your skin—it’s freshly exfoliated and needs time to settle.

⚠️ Who Should Avoid Microdermabrasion?

While microdermabrasion is generally safe for most skin types, there are a few conditions that may prevent treatment:

Active acne or open lesions
Rosacea or extremely sensitive skin
Eczema, psoriasis, or dermatitis flare-ups
Recent facial surgery, injectables, or chemical peels (within 7–14 days)
Certain medications like isotretinoin (Accutane)
Active cold sores or skin infections

If you're unsure whether you’re suitable for microdermabrasion, we’re happy to chat with you before booking.

✅ Who is Microdermabrasion For?

You’re a great candidate if you:

Have dull, tired, or congested skin
Are concerned with mild pigmentation or fine lines
Want a non-invasive glow-up without downtime
Are prepping for a special event and want smoother makeup application
