Help dull or dehydrated skin with microdermabrasion treatments at I AM Medical Spas in Troy. While there are many products and lifestyle factors that can affect skin texture, one of the best ways to get smoother skin is through microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a process that gives you smoother, glowing skin through exfoliation. This gentle yet effective skin treatment gets rid of dead skin cells to reveal new, healthy skin. The result is more youthful, hydrated skin you’ll love to feel.

Why try microdermabrasion in Troy?
01
Promote Healthier Skin
Over time, dead skin cells build up on the outermost layer of your skin (epidermis). This buildup creates a dull, flaky appearance that can emphasize texture. Microdermabrasion gets rid of dead skin cells, bringing the healthy skin cells to the surface.
02
Improve Signs Of Aging
When you have dehydrated or dull skin, fine lines and wrinkles stand out because the skin is less plump and hydrated. Microdermabrasion in Troy at I AM Medical Spas and Laser Center can lessen the appearance of these lines by renewing the skin through exfoliation.
03
Reduce Texture
If you suffer from acne scars that create texture, improving skin cell turnover helps to smooth and resurface this texture over time.
