Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a noninvasive procedure to help renew overall skin tone and texture. Oxford Medical Aesthetics & Laser uses the patented DiamondTome™ Resurfacing System that is clinically proven to provide superior skincare results. There is no downtime, making it the perfect choice for people with a social schedule who can’t allow for any time off.
What is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion gently exfoliates the topmost layer of dead cells of skin called the epidermis. Removing some of this outer layer leaves a smoother texture and reveals a glow and reflectivity of the cells beneath the surface. It also stimulates the dermis, which is deeper and is responsible for collagen production. The DiamondTome™ Skin Resurfacing System has natural diamond chips in the tip of the wands. There are four tips to treat different skin types. The adjoining tube then vacuums the exfoliated skin cells in a controlled manner into a filter. Some microdermabrasion machines use crystals to “sandblast” the skin. Our Diamond Tome system is crystal-free and does not allow exfoliated debris to be aerosolized, so the patient and provider are protected from inhaling it.

EXPERIENCE MATTERS
Dr. Naegele is a top ranked aesthetic injector. In fact, she has been recognized as a Platinum Plus injector by the manufacturers of Botox and Juvederm.
What can a Microdermabrasion treatment be used for?
It is so versatile, just look at some of the ways we use it:
- A popular treatment for brides and mothers-of-the bride/groom the week of the wedding because there is no downtime and reveals a nice glow.
- If done in a series of 4-6 treatments spaced 2-3 weeks apart, results like the ones above are intensified. Often, Dr. Naegele will dermaplane the skin afterward to help gently remove some cells that are still adhering to the surface giving the treatment an added boost.
- Acne patients ask for this treatment because it is fast, painless, suctions pores, and can be alternated with a Forever Clear BBL treatment.
- Patients who enjoy the Blue Peel Radiance chemical peel may have microdermabrasion first or alternate the treatments for more impactful results.
- So many options! Don’t worry; we’ll help you decide what is best for your unique skin.
What is special about DiamondTome?
DiamondTome was the original crystal free microderm device on the market. One of the advantages of this system is that unlike microdermabrasion systems that use crystals, the patented diamond tipped wand doesn’t cause heat or inflammation on the skin.

What is the aftercare for a Microdermabrasion treatment?
The skin may become red after the microdermabrasion treatment, but this will subside after a few minutes. Patients who receive microdermabrasion can resume normal activities after the procedure. We generally apply a moisturizer or hydrator and sunscreen after the treatment.
Are there side effects?
Though side effects are extremely rare, possible side effects to microdermabrasion include redness, dry skin, increased sun sensitivity, bruising, slight abrasions, hyperpigmentation, activation of cold sores, and bleeding.

Will I experience any pain with Microdermabrasion?
This procedure is pain-free, takes 15 – 30 minutes, and requires no downtime from daily activity. It feels a bit like sandpaper gliding over the skin, with a mild suction sensation. Most patients find it to be quite relaxing.
