Medical Microdermabrasion


Vibradermabrasion Therapy produces exfoliation on any part of the body. The process is fast and very comfortable for the patients and produces exceptional results in the appearance of skin texture, fine wrinkles, superficial scars, uneven pigmentation, and age spots. 


Works on all skin types and colours. 75-85% of the stratum corneum is removed in minutes and prepares the skin for many additional procedures such as Skin Hydration, Non-ablative Light Source treatments (Laser/IPL), Chemical Peel enhancement, Topical Anesthetic enhancement, to name a few.


Vibradermabrasion is a new method of removing this dead tissue. In the past, machines have used small particles of Aluminum Oxide to "Sandblast" the skin. These machines treat a very small spot making it difficult to evenly treat a large area. They can also cause significant irritation and broken capillaries. Vibraderm uses a large surface coated with fixed abrasives. Large areas can be treated evenly with less irritation. Studies have shown that Vibradermabrasion is more effective than microdermabrasion and patients prefer it.


Vibrafusion Therapy will typically produce a 500% increase in the absorption of any topical product. Vibrafusion Therapy will massage the product deep into the skin producing enhanced results from the products.


Vibraderm treatment

Each Patient purchases a Vibraderm Treatment Paddle Kit. These paddles are good for approximately a year or 10 treatments per Paddle. The paddles are made of a non-imbedded, single layered, abrasive stainless steel material. These paddles are abrasive yet the amount of excessive redness or skin irritation is lower than most skin treatments that are available today. Patients enjoy this treatment. The hand piece vibrates the paddle at approximately 88 times per second. This forward and back movement not only exfoliates the skin but also triggers new collagen in as little as 3 treatments. Approximately 12 to 20 minutes is all that is needed to do a full face, neck and upper chest. Generally treatment consists of six comfortable in-office exfoliation treatments.
