Microdermabrasion in Vancouver

What Is Microdermabrasion?

The Diamond Peel™ medical-grade Microdermabrasion system we provide at Pure Light Laser Vancouver removes the topmost layer of the skin revealing a fresh and vibrant layer. Our skin technicians use the Diamond Wand™ to remove this layer by gently exfoliating with natural diamond chips, while at the same time vacuuming the dead skin cells and debris from your skin and pores. You will experience anti-aging results with softer, smoother and cleaner skin after just the first treatment.

Benefits of Microdermabrasion as a Skin Treatment

Rejuvenate your appearance with Microdermabrasion - a popular cosmetic skin treatment. Vancouver BC, Pure Light Laser Clinic offers microdermabrasion to minimize sun damage, age spots, pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars and reduce pore sizes.

Our medical-grade Diamond Peel™ system uses a diamond-tipped wand to gently exfoliate the skin. Whereas traditional approaches use abrasive particles that leaves a sandy residue on your skin.

You will experience softer, smoother and cleaner skin after just the first treatment.

For the best results

We recommend an initial series of 3 or more skin treatments.

Although it is a painless procedure that requires no aesthetic, your face may look slightly flushed afterwards. You will see results after your first treatment but we recommend an initial series of 3 or more for the best outcome.

Does it work?  The research is clear

1. A study completed by Karimipour DJ, Karimipour G, Orringer JS concluded that it will "result in improvement in skin contour irregularities."
2. Another study indicated that microdermabrasion will help with overall skin beauty when the skin ages.  This simple and safe method of skin care will help with photo aging.
