Microdermabrasion
Your skin goes through a lot. From sun exposure and environmental stress to clogged pores and aging, it’s no surprise that your complexion may start to feel a little dull or uneven over time. That’s where microdermabrasion comes in—a gentle, non-invasive treatment that’s like hitting the refresh button on your face.
At Winnie King, MD Aesthetics, we believe your skin deserves the kind of care that makes you feel confident walking out the door without makeup. This isn’t just about surface-level beauty—it’s about giving your skin a chance to breathe, renew, and glow naturally.
What Is Microdermabrasion, Exactly?
Think of microdermabrasion as a deep, mechanical exfoliation. We use a device that carefully buffs away the top layer of dead skin cells, revealing the smoother, healthier skin underneath. It’s totally painless, and most people say it feels more like a gentle polishing than a procedure.
This skin exfoliation treatment is ideal if you’re dealing with rough patches, early signs of aging, clogged pores, or lingering acne marks. And unlike more aggressive options, there’s no need for significant downtime—you can head back to your day right after your session.
Why Choose Microdermabrasion?
Because it works. Whether you’re preparing for a big event or just want your skin to look and feel better on the daily, microdermabrasion offers noticeable improvements. With each session, you’ll notice smoother skin, more even tone, and a fresh, clean glow that’s hard to miss.
Some clients come in for one session to jumpstart their skincare journey. Others make it a regular part of their routine—especially if they’ve been dealing with blackheads, acne scars, or sun damage.
What to Expect During and After Treatment
Each session takes about 30 minutes. You’ll lie back in a peaceful treatment room while we gently exfoliate your skin using a crystal or diamond-tip wand (depending on your skin type). There’s no pain—just a light suction sensation as the dead skin cells are removed.
Afterward, your skin might look slightly pink, like you’ve had a brisk walk outside. That fades within a few hours. You’ll leave with skin that feels softer and looks brighter right away. And with no downtime, you’re free to get back to your day—with just a little extra glow.
Is It Right for You?
Microdermabrasion is suitable for many skin types and tones. If you’re dealing with mild acne scarring, uneven texture, or you’re just tired of dull-looking skin, this could be a great place to start. We don’t just treat skin—we treat people. And we’re here to help you figure out what makes sense for you, no pressure, no guesswork.

Personalized Care, Every Time
One thing that sets our Houston clinic apart is the attention to detail. Dr. Winnie King and her experienced team never rush the process. Before your treatment, we’ll have a conversation about what your skin has been going through—whether it’s stress-related breakouts, dry patches, or something else entirely.
Then we tailor the experience to your skin’s exact needs. We may recommend combining Dermaplaning with your microdermabrasion for added smoothness, or suggest a series of treatments spaced a few weeks apart to achieve deeper, more lasting results.
Microdermabrasion FAQs
Microdermabrasion gently removes the top layer of dead skin using a handheld device that exfoliates and vacuums away debris. This encourages skin cell turnover and leaves your complexion feeling smoother and more refreshed.
Not at all. Most people experience slight redness for a few hours, similar to a light sun exposure. You can go right back to your normal day—just be sure to wear sunscreen and stay moisturized.
You’ll notice a difference after just one treatment, especially in how smooth and clean your skin feels. But for deeper concerns like uneven tone or mild acne scars, a series of treatments spaced out over a few weeks often delivers the best outcome.
Yes, it’s great for clearing out pores and reducing blackheads. While it won’t cure acne, regular treatments can help manage breakouts and reduce buildup that often leads to congestion.
It’s generally safe for most skin types, but if you have very sensitive or inflamed skin, we’ll want to assess your needs first. During your consultation, we’ll make sure it’s the right option or recommend an alternative that works better for your skin.
