You might be thinking… why bother with regular Microdermabrasion treatments? Our skin is the largest organ in the body and just like your other organs, it needs tender loving care.

Looking after your skin should be no different to visiting the dentist for a check-up, going to the optometrist for an eye check, visiting the doctor for an annual review. But for some reason, we feel guilty about looking after our skin because it’s… indulgent? Well, we are here to tell you that your skin is just as important as any other body part! And you should embrace taking the time to look after yourself. Here are all the reasons why Microdermabrasions need to become part of your ongoing skin regime.

It’s your monthly ‘me’ time.

Treat yourself. Getting a Microdermabrasion feels good and it's relaxing. It doesn't hurt, and it doesn't sting.

At your 5-Step Microdermabrasion, we use cosmedical products from Australia's leading brand Skinstitut™. As a result of combing the two, skin will look smoother, more even. There will be more of a glow or a brightness to your skin. Prior to a Microdermabrasion treatment, all of those dead cells on the top can make your skin appear a bit dull. After treatment, you'll have an even skin tone without those dead, greyish cells on top.

It allows for better product absorption and makeup application.

Healthier skin allows for better skincare product absorption. While smooth skin that is clear of dead skin cells allows for easy application of your makeup.

Micros are suited to many skin types and are super safe. 
Micros are well suited for every skin type. Any skin tone, any ethnic group, men and women, young, old. It's not invasive, and it's safe. You can even do it during pregnancy because there are no chemicals involved.

Micros are an excellent maintenance treatment and are particularly helpful for acne sufferers.

Microdermabrasions are the perfect maintenance skin treatment and they are particularly helpful for combatting and reducing acne. Microdermabrasions for acne (and micros in general) help to:
