Microdermabrasion Treatment & Skin Care in Chelmsford Essex

Exfoliate and resurface your skin with Microdermabrasion - micro crystals are sandblasted against your skin leaving it smooth and fresh and promoting collage production


Microdermabrasion is a safe, controlled treatment that intensely exfoliates and resurfaces the skin. A fine jet of crystals penetrates the skin to gently remove dead skin cells layer by layer, whilst at the same time a vacuum sweeps up both the crystals and the skins cellular debris of the skin.

The production of collagen and elastin is stimulated which results in firmer and more youthful skin. Anyone can benefit from the microdermabrasion treatments, as it improves overall appearance of the skin, giving you a healthy glow and youthful appearance. It is also extremely effective at treating a number of skin problems such as acne scarring, ageing, uneven skin tone, tired/dull skin and dry/dehydrated skin.

Some of the benefits of having Microdermabrasion:

  • Non-invasive and painless
  • Treatment can be performed in as little as 30 minutes, even on lunch breaks
  • Can safely be used on all skin types and skin colours
  • Immediate results, even after first treatment
  • Vacuum action offers improved elasticity and muscle tone
  • Stimulates natural collagen production

CACI Treatments

CACI facials are one of our most popular treatments. Using micro-current facial techniques in conjunction with a combination of faradic and galvanic slimming and toning application, the CACI Quantum facial works to restore and redefine muscles, reducing lines and wrinkles while having the option to simultaneously tighten and tone sagging body muscles.

An initial consultation is carried out so your therapist can help you decide which treatment would benefit you the most.

CACI Ultimate Anti-Ageing Facial

The CACI ULTIMATE Facial is designed for anyone looking for a more intense version of the CACI-non surgical facial. This treatment concentrates on areas of specific concern, aimed at those with a more mature skin type. The CACI Ultimate facial re-educates, tones and tightens the facial muscles by emitting tiny electrical impulses. The use of the Wrinkle Comb and LED light therapy will stimulate the connective tissue, circulation and lymph drainage.

The orbital rotation of the hand piece significantly reduces skin imperfections such as pigmentation, age spots, wrinkles and impurities. Your skin will be left feeling smooth and clear. Light therapy is emitted from the device also to enhance circulation, wound healing, speeds up cell renewal, stimulates collagen and also acts as a calming agent.

After Microdermabrasion a calming Hydrotone mask is applied to the skin. The mask is used in conjunction with active micro current rollers that massage the face so that the mask becomes ‘charged’ and the mask is infused with powerful hydrating properties including Collagen, Hyaluronic Acid and Rose Water. The rejuvenating energy improves lymphatic drainage, giving your face a softer, radiant, youthful appearance.

SkinBase Treatments

The SkinBase IPL laser system can be used for a wide range of treatments including hair reduction, photorejuvenation, acne and vascular lesions. IPL is different to laser based therapies that only produce a single wavelength of light and can therefore only treat a specific condition.

More details about Microdermabrasion

How does microdermabrasion work?

Your skin is cleansed before microdermabrasion begins and then aluminium oxide micro crystals are sandblasted through a small tube that is activated when pressed against the skin. The tube also vacuums up spent crystals and skin cells. Our therapists slowly move the wand across the area until complete and then the area is moisturised.

Is aluminium oxide safe?

The crystals used in microdermabrasion are perfectly safe and non-toxic even  if ingested. They don’t cause adverse skin reactions and aren’t a carcinogen. During the procedure, your eyes will be protected with safety glasses.

What can I expect during and after treatment?

Microdermabrasion can reduce fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and evens out skin tone. It can also eliminate white and black heads, minimise large pores and revitalise dull skin – helping it regenerate its elasticity and collagen production. As soon as your treatment is over, the skin looks and feels fresh.

Does it hurt?

Microdermabrasion is painless, and downtime is marginal. Some patients say there is a slight itchiness or stinging when it first starts, however your nerves quickly adapts to the crystals. After the treatment, your skin might be a little red, but this should not last longer than 24 hours. During this time, your skin my feel dry, similarly to the effects of a mild sunburn. Use lots of moisturizer during the first few days, and avoid sun exposure for at least a week.
