Dr. Katzen is amazing. His knowledge and bedside banner area impeccable. He kept me informed every step of the way. His staff is just as impressive, they are patient and responsive 24hrs a day. He is great with the bariatric patient community, he knows how to get rid of our loose skin and hide all the scars. Thank you for all your help!

My self-esteem and confidence have already improved by milestones - I normally don't write reviews but Dr. J Timothy Katzen and his team have gone above and beyond my expectations. I had gastric sleeve surgery and lost a total of 125 pounds. I kept convincing myself that I don't need plastic or reconstructive surgery. I figured I was healthy, and excess skin and fat is something I could live with. Boy was I wrong. Looking at my flabs and wrinkled skin was a bad reminder of my old obese self, the person I wanted to move on from. I had such low self-esteem when I was obese. I found Dr. J Timothy Katzen through Real Self and had no doubt he is the right surgeon for my situation. Dr. Katzen was the clear choice because of how many before and after pictures he had, the number of great reviews, the questions and answers, the videos, and his credentials, I mean I can go on forever. I felt super confident in my decision and sure enough, he delivered. Dr. Katzen did a circumferential body lift and I could not be more pleased with the results and care I received from everyone. I am forever grateful for how Dr. Katzen transformed my body. My self-esteem and confidence have already improved by milestones.

A miracle worker - I look like an improved version of myself - If I could give 10 stars I would. Dr. Katzen is by far the best doctor I've ever encountered. His bedside manner is impeccable and he never made me feel rushed in my appointments with him, answering every question I had. I came to him to finish my weight loss transformation after losing 150 lbs resulting in a lot of excess skin. I had 2 rounds of surgery combining several procedures together; round 1 was lower body lift with muscle repair, neck lipo, and medial thigh lift and round 2 was arm lift with horizontal back lift, breast lift, and augmentation. It was a lot and recovery was intense but Katzen and his staff always made sure that I was well taken care of and supported every step of the way. My results are beyond anything I ever imagined Dr. Katzen truly is an artist but most importantly he didn't try to sell me on procedures I didn't need and he tailored my surgeries for the best results so I look like an improved version of myself and not lot a plastic doll off the assembly lot. I'm so grateful to Dr. Katzen and his amazing staff.

Changed my life - Thank you Dr Katzen and his team for all your kindness and hard work. I'm so grateful I found you. I just couldn't live another year of this. Like I said I have tons of friends in the silicone community and I know it's a rush when you first start to mod journey and you don't really think of the consequence or long term problems. Like I said I started penis and ball enhancement about 17 years ago and it was fun at first...until it wasn't. I know a lot of guys who don't like their silicone but think if they just keep getting more at least they'll have enormous junk and guys or maybe even girls, will love that. But if you're not happy with your results and WISH you could take it back, I recommend giving Dr Katzen a call. He didn't judge me and made me feel comfortable right from the start. He has an awesome bedside manner. When he said he could make me look 85-90 percent better I cried. A lot of you guys might know me as LAmeatpacker from all the silicone groups, so you know you can trust me. You'll know when it's time to make the call. I'm looking forward to healing and not having infections on vacation, not having time sucking TSA dramas, to buying pants off the rack, and not paying for custom made, wearing shorts and tights again at the gym, and not having to sit down to piss. Thanks again Dr Katzen you changed my life.

Who is a Candidate for Microdermabrasion?

Microdermabrasion may be a good option for women and men who want to improve skin clarity and texture with a gentle, noninvasive treatment. This procedure is commonly used to refresh the surface of the skin and support a healthier, more even appearance across the face or other areas of the body. Candidates for microdermabrasion may be those looking to address:

Dull tone
Fine lines
Uneven texture
Clogged pores
Sun damage

Microdermabrasion may not be recommended for people with open wounds or active skin conditions such as acne or rosacea. Dr. Katzen and our skincare team will evaluate your skin type, treatment goals, and the area being treated to determine whether microdermabrasion is an appropriate option for you.

How does microdermabrasion work?

Microdermabrasion treatments are completed in our office after a thorough consultation to determine which services will give you your best results. For the treatment, you will lie back in a comfortable chair as your skin is prepared. The microdermabrasion tool will run along your skin as it polishes and vacuums the debris. While the treatment may feel unusual, it not considered painful so you won't need a numbing cream or local anesthesia. The technique will be employed evenly over the needed areas with more caution on the delicate skin around the eyes. As soon as the treatment is over, your skin will be lightly cleansed to remove any residual debris before a moisturizer, selected for your skin type with UV protection, is applied.

About Us

What can i Expect after microdermabrasion?

After your session, you can get back to your normal routine. You must be sure to wear sunscreen or another form of sun protection since your skin will be sensitive. Following your treatment, your face should feel smoother and your tone will look brighter. To help your outcomes last as long as possible, Dr. Katzen recommends scheduling these procedures every 4 – 6 weeks. Some of our Beverly Hills, CA patients notice that the skin care products they use at home (especially moisturizers) absorb more easily into their skin after they've begun treatment. This leads to all-around healthier skin.

Microdermabrasion FAQs

Should I get microdermabrasion, dermabrasion, or a chemical peel?

Based on your complexion and aesthetic goals, a skin care professional at J. Timothy Katzen, M.D. Beverly Hills will help you understand if microdermabrasion, a chemical peel, or dermabrasion is the right procedure. In a nutshell, microdermabrasion clears away the top layer of dead and damaged skin cells — so your complexion is smooth and healthier. You can get these same results from a light chemical peel. Dermabrasion or a stronger chemical peel is better if your skin problems are below the surface skin layers. The amount of time you want to spend in recovery might also influence which treatment you prefer, as microdermabrasion requires little to no downtime.

How long will my results last?

Results for a single microdermabrasion treatment are relatively temporary, but they can be improved and longer-lasting by having many regular sessions at J. Timothy Katzen, M.D. Beverly Hills.

How often should I get microdermabrasion treatments?

Initially, you should get anywhere from 5 – 12 microdermabrasion treatments scheduled about 2 – 4 weeks apart to rejuvenate your complexion. After that, you should schedule appointments every 4 – 8 weeks to maintain your skin's health. During your consultation, your technician can make a treatment plan with recommendations for your needs that outlines when you need to schedule appointments.

What treatments are most common for combining with microdermabrasion?

Since microdermabrasion is a surface-level skin treatment, you may consider combining it with other procedures. Many patients combine microdermabrasion along with a facial or an injectable wrinkle treatment, like BOTOX® or JUVÉDERM®. You should be honest about all your aesthetic concerns in your initial consultation — so your technician can develop a comprehensive plan that meets all your goals.

How much does microdermabrasion cost?

The price for microdermabrasion treatments can be discussed during your first appointment. After you talk about your needs and they assess your skin, your custom treatment plan can be made. J. Timothy Katzen, M.D. Beverly Hills has specials on treatments like microdermabrasion plus discounts if you buy a package with several sessions.

How should I care for my skin after a microdermabrasion treatment?

After your microdermabrasion, you are encouraged to avoid strenuous activity for at least 24 hours to give your skin time to rest and heal. You need to avoid direct exposure to UV rays (tanning beds and natural sunlight) and protect your complexion with sunscreen. To reduce redness and swelling following the microdermabrasion, we may suggest a moisturizer or cold compress.
