Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion at the institute is a mechanical exfoliation treatment that removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells, instantly smoothing texture, brightening tone, and improving the absorption of subsequently applied serums and masks. It is offered for face + neck (250 Kč) or face + décolleté (440 Kč), and is frequently combined with the institute's cream and sheet masks, ultrasonic skin-scrubber deep cleansing, or laser biostimulation for a complete facial-renewal visit at a very accessible price point.

Microdermabrasion is one of the most popular entry-level skin-resurfacing treatments: a controlled, progressive mechanical exfoliation of the stratum corneum — the outermost layer of dead skin cells — performed without chemicals, needles, or downtime. **How it works:** A precision abrasive head (or crystal stream, depending on device) is passed systematically across the skin under light vacuum, lifting away dead cells and surface debris. Removing this dulling outer layer immediately reveals fresher skin beneath, while the mild mechanical stimulus encourages cell turnover and microcirculation in the days that follow. **What it improves:** - Dull, rough, or flaky skin texture - Uneven tone and mild surface pigmentation - Clogged pores and comedone-prone skin - Fine surface lines - Absorption of serums and masks applied afterwards (a key reason it is usually paired with a treatment mask) **The session:** Skin is cleansed, the microdermabrasion pass is performed over the agreed area (face + neck, or extended to the décolleté), and the skin is finished with a soothing serum or mask chosen for the skin type. A typical session takes 30–45 minutes depending on add-ons. **Frequency:** Because the exfoliation is superficial and gentle, microdermabrasion can be repeated every 2–4 weeks. A short series gives a cumulative smoothing and brightening effect, and it pairs well with the institute's Renophase peels in alternating sessions. **Aftercare:** Skin may be slightly pink for a few hours. Avoid strong sun and use SPF for several days; skip retinoids and strong acids for 2–3 days around the treatment.
