Everyday life can take a toll on your skin—sun damage, environmental pollutants, and natural aging all contribute to a dull complexion. While topical products offer temporary relief, sometimes your skin needs a deeper, more thorough refresh. That’s where microdermabrasion comes in.
At Advanced Body and Laser Center (ABLC) in Visalia, we offer professional microdermabrasion treatments that safely and gently exfoliate the skin, revealing a smoother, brighter, and more youthful complexion underneath. If you’re ready to improve your skin’s texture and clarity with minimal downtime, this non-invasive solution may be just what you’re looking for.
Microdermabrasion is a tried-and-true cosmetic procedure that exfoliates the outermost layer of the skin. It helps reduce imperfections and stimulates the body’s natural cell turnover process. At ABLC, we use medical-grade equipment to ensure safe and effective treatment for a range of skin types and concerns.
Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical, minimally abrasive skincare treatment designed to resurface the skin and reduce common imperfections. It works by using a handheld device to gently exfoliate the skin while simultaneously suctioning away dead skin cells and impurities.
The process encourages new skin cell growth and stimulates collagen production—two vital components of smooth, healthy-looking skin. This treatment is ideal for anyone looking for visible results without the downtime associated with more aggressive procedures.
The device used in microdermabrasion combines two key actions:
Exfoliation: A fine stream of crystals or a diamond-tipped wand is passed over the skin to remove the outer layer of dead skin cells.
Vacuum Suction: A gentle vacuum removes exfoliated debris while stimulating blood flow and lymphatic drainage, which helps nourish the skin and promote healing.
This dual-action approach promotes a smoother texture, unclogs pores, and enhances the absorption of skincare products applied afterward. Most sessions take about 30 to 45 minutes and are virtually painless.
Microdermabrasion is a versatile treatment that can address a wide range of common skin concerns, including:
While results vary depending on the condition of your skin and the number of sessions you complete, most patients notice visible improvement after just one treatment.
At ABLC, our team customizes each microdermabrasion session to your skin’s unique needs. Whether you’re targeting facial blemishes or improving texture on the body, we ensure precision and comfort throughout your treatment.
Face: Reduces fine lines, unclogs pores, and smooths overall texture.
Neck & Décolletage: Fades signs of sun damage and improves skin clarity.
Back: Helps treat clogged pores and acne breakouts.
Hands: Diminishes age spots and restores a more youthful appearance.
Stretch Marks (Abdomen, Hips, Thighs): Softens and fades discoloration and texture.
Microdermabrasion is suitable for a wide range of individuals looking to maintain or improve the appearance of their skin with minimal risk and downtime.
Microdermabrasion is ideal for:
1.) Men and women with dull, uneven, or aging skin
2.) People with mild acne, clogged pores, or congested skin
3.) Individuals wanting to improve tone and texture without invasive procedures
4.) Anyone looking to enhance their skincare routine for improved product absorption
This treatment is safe for most skin tones and types, making it a popular choice among our Visalia clients.
While microdermabrasion is generally safe, it may not be the right option for everyone. You should avoid treatment if:
1.) You have active acne or open wounds in the treatment area
2.) You are experiencing rosacea flare-ups or severe inflammation
3.) You have a history of keloid scarring or extremely sensitive skin
4.) You’ve recently undergone another aggressive skin treatment (chemical peel, laser, etc.)
During your consultation at ABLC, we’ll assess your skin and medical history to ensure this treatment is appropriate for you.
Your microdermabrasion journey begins with a one-on-one consultation at ABLC. We’ll assess your skin concerns, medical history, and aesthetic goals before recommending a customized treatment plan.
On the day of your treatment, your skin will be gently cleansed to remove makeup, oils, and impurities. The microdermabrasion handpiece is then passed across the skin using light, consistent strokes. The session is comfortable and takes about 30–45 minutes.
Some patients report a mild scratching sensation or vibration, but the treatment is not painful. No anesthesia or numbing is needed.
There’s little to no downtime after microdermabrasion. You may experience mild redness, tightness, or sensitivity for a few hours post-treatment. We recommend:
Most patients resume normal activities immediately.
You may notice a brighter, more radiant complexion immediately after your session. With continued treatments, you’ll see longer-term improvements in tone, texture, and skin clarity. For best results, a series of 4–6 treatments spaced 2–4 weeks apart is typically recommended.

Each session takes about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the treatment area. It’s a quick, efficient procedure that fits easily into your day—many clients schedule it over a lunch break. There’s no recovery downtime, so you can return to your routine immediately.
No, microdermabrasion is not considered painful. Most patients describe the sensation as a light scratching or a mild vibrating feeling on the skin. It’s well-tolerated and requires no numbing.
For best results, we usually recommend a series of 4 to 6 sessions spaced a few weeks apart. The number of treatments depends on your skin goals and the severity of concerns like texture, discoloration, or scarring. Your provider will customize a treatment plan during your consultation.
You should avoid direct sun exposure, retinoids, exfoliants, and harsh skincare products for at least 24 to 48 hours. Stick to a gentle, hydrating skincare routine and wear SPF 30+ to protect your freshly treated skin. This helps reduce sensitivity and supports optimal healing.
Many patients see a brighter, smoother complexion immediately after treatment. Skin continues to improve over the following days as cell turnover increases. With consistent sessions, you’ll notice long-term improvements in tone and texture.
It’s best to wait at least 24 hours before applying makeup. This gives your skin time to calm and reduces the risk of clogging pores or causing irritation. Once the initial redness fades, you can resume your normal makeup routine.
There is little to no downtime with microdermabrasion. You may have slight redness or a tight feeling, similar to a mild sunburn, but these side effects typically fade within a few hours. Most clients go right back to work or daily activities.
Yes, microdermabrasion is effective for improving the appearance of mild acne scars. It helps resurface the skin by stimulating new cell growth and collagen production over time. Deeper scars may require additional treatments or combination therapies.
It can be safe for sensitive skin when performed by trained professionals. During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin type and recommend the best approach. In some cases, a gentler exfoliation method may be suggested if your skin is highly reactive.
To maintain results, follow a gentle daily skincare routine, stay hydrated, and wear sunscreen every day. Avoid over-exfoliating at home and consider booking maintenance treatments every 6 to 8 weeks. Consistency is key for long-term skin health and glow.
