Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion at our Providence, Rhode Island practice is a non-invasive but thorough exfoliation treatment that can help improve the overall appearance of the skin. The procedure only removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells to reveal the fresher, younger cells beneath.
To learn more about microdermabrasion from Providence skin care specialist Dr. Lori Polacek, request a consultation at the Polacek Center for Plastic Surgery. Or phone us at (401) 331-0202 and we will discuss the best approach to address your specific needs.

Microdermabrasion Treatment
Microdermabrasion treatments combined with our skin care products are a safe, comprehensive approach to skin care. Microdermabrasion treatments help to repair the skin by mechanically – as opposed to chemically or thermally - removing the top layers of damaged skin.
Years of exposure to the sun's harmful UV rays can wreak havoc on your skin. With our microdermabrasion system, you'll get a facial procedure that will help you heal those years of abuse after just a few treatments. To increase the removal of acne scars and damaged skin, and see greater results, several microdermabrasion treatments using our system will be helpful. This facial procedure surpasses over the counter chemical peels that only offer short-term benefit and reduced visibility of acne scars. The procedure takes just about 30 minutes, and the results are immediate and with minimal discomfort.
During your consultation our trained skin care providers will review your treatment options, including pros and cons of microdermabrasion treatments, potential risks and complications, recovery course, pre and post treatment instructions, and aesthetic outcomes.
