Arm Microdermabrasion is safe for most skin types after a professional assessment. We tailor technique for sensitivity, perform consultations, and may recommend a patch test or alternative options for active inflammation or specific conditions.

A typical Arm Microdermabrasion session lasts about 30 to 45 minutes, including consultation and brief post-treatment care. Exact timing depends on area size and whether add-on serums or soothing masks are applied.

Most clients notice improvement after three to six sessions spaced two to four weeks apart. The total number varies with skin condition and goals; our clinicians will create a personalized plan during your consultation.
