Best Orlando Day Spas for Microdermabrasion

February 24, 2010 by Spa Maven  
Filed under Spa News

If you’ve been keeping up with your facials but your skin is still looking a little dull, you may be a good candidate for a deeper exfoliation treatment called microdermabrasion.

Microdermabrasion is available at several day spas in Orlando — and for a relatively affordable price!

Most Orlando day spas charge between $100 to $150 for a treatment, and some include a chemical peel or facial with the treatment so that your skin can heal and renew itself at a faster rate.

What is Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is an exfoliating treatment that buffs away dead skin cells and stimulates circulation. The treatment usually involves passing a wand with a suction device over the skin. The wand acts as a light sanding agent that gently scrapes away the top layer of skin, and the suction device pulls the dead skin cells off the skin to clear up congestion. The result is a very smooth, clean and polished surface.

Benefits of Orlando Microdermabrasion

Some of the key benefits of microdermabrasion treatments at Orlando day spas include:

  • Tightens and tones the skin
  • Clears pores
  • Increases collagen production
  • Makes skin more resilient
  • Buffs away fine lines and wrinkles
  • Reduces appearance of age spots
  • Evens out a rough skin tone
  • Reduces appearance of shallow scars (including acne scars)

Orlando Day Spas Offering Microdermabrasion

Ready to give your skin a refresher this season? Here are some of the best Orlando day spas to get your microdermabrasion treatment:

Each of these Orlando day spas offer 50 minute to 80 minute microdermabrasion and facial treatments, and some include a relaxing facial massage with the service. Whether your goal is to lighten up skin pigmentation or just freshen up for the season, you can benefit from a microdermabraison treatment once every four to six weeks.

Orlando Spa Network Tip: If you want to maintain results, ask the day spa about package options. Several Orlando day spas offer a discount for booking microdermabrasion packages of six or more treatments!

Keep in mind that you may not be a good candidate for microdermabrasion if you’re taking certain types of supplements, are on an acne treatment plan or have are pregnant. Make sure you check with your physician before starting treatment, and communicate all the medications you are taking to your esthetician so that they can recommend a treatment plan that’s right for you.

Spa Review: Blush Day Spa, Orlando

Spa Rating: 4 out of 5 Stars

If you’re a resident of Altamonte Springs, you won’t want to miss the blissful escape hidden in the shopping plaza off I-4. If you’re not a local, take the short drive up to Blush Day Spa for the royal treatment. A recent spa visit was  welcome retreat from a stressful work week, and I settled in for a Hot Stone Massage treatment (55 minutes, $70).

Inside Blush Day Spa

Blush Day Spa is decorated like an exotic spa sanctuary, a beautifully-furnished spa that will transport you to another world. The lobby area shares a space with the manicure and pedicure stations, and these look like regal thrones lined up against the side wall.

When you walk back into the treatment area, you’ll find several treatment rooms lined on either side of a long hallway, and a large waterfall at the end. Behind the waterfall is a spacious relaxation area, furnished with oversized recliners, sofas and an antique table stocked with teas, baked treats and snacks. This is an idyllic place to relax before and after any service, enjoy lunch during your spa day, or just meet with friends before your spa retreat begins.

Hot Stone Massage Experience

The Hot Stone Massage experience at Blush Day Spa begins with a short introduction and the laying of the stones on the bed. You’re laid down gently on top of a mini-bed of hot rocks covered in a towel, and you’ll start to relax within minutes.

The therapist begins the service with a shoulder, neck and arm massage, followed by the hot stone application for deeper relaxation. The stones are tucked between the massage bed and your body at various intervals throughout the treatment to deliver the soothing heat deep into the tissues.

The treatment ends with the laying of the stones along the spine, and a deep tissue back massage.

Highlights of Blush Day Spa

Blush Day Spa of Orlando has recently introduced a Membership program where spa regulars pay just $59 per month for a choice of a single 60-minute service, or $109 per month for a choice of two 60 minute services.  More information about the Membership program can be found here.

Haven’t visited this spa yet? If you’re a first-time client, be sure to advantage of the introductory offer of $39 for any one hour service!

Blush Day Spa is located at 9439 Forest City Cove in Altamonte Springs, a short drive from downtown Orlando. Call (407) 770-6666 for more information.
