You can buy a package of 10 sessions for $1000 but usually they run about 100-150 per session plus the one time cost of the handpiece for $50.
Vibraderm is an excellent technique used to aid in smoothing the skin (usually the face). I recommend multiple sessions which is typically a package of approximately 5-6 treatments spaced apart by 1-2 weeks followed by maintenance treatments every month or two. The package starts at about $500.
Hi KateVibraderm is a highly efficient modern verson of Microdermabrasion, because the personal paddles can be sized to each specific area of the body. This permits larger and more varied areas of the body to be treated.For example- the whole face, neck and upper chest or "decollete" area can usually be very soothingly treated in about 30 minutes.Costs certainly would vary according to parts of the country. Here in the midwest a package of 6 might start about $500.
In my office, we charge $80 per treatment or $350 for a package of 5 treatments. There is an addition charge of $30 for paddles.

One of the biggest problems we see as dermatologists are people trying to do much, too soon, and too close to big social events. This seems to be the case here and is a good teaching lesson for everyone. You know you have an important social event coming up and we know, as well as you do, that...
You really should go back to your treating physician. If you had this treatment before without problems then something must have happened to make you react in such a way. The sooner you get on skin lightening medications the better so you should be seen ASAP. We can only speculate on what...
Thank you for your question! Microdermabrasion is a simple, quick, and painless cosmetic treatment with no downtime and minimal risk.It helps to gently exfoliate surface layers of skin using abrasion and suction. A microdermabrasion treatment normally takes about 20-25 minutes. This can vary...
