Dermabrasion refreshes the skin by removing the outer damaged layers.
This resurfacing treatment uses a rapidly rotating device to gently “sand” the skin, removing scarred, uneven, or pigmented outer layers. Dermabrasion stimulates regeneration of new, more even and youthful looking skin. It smooths fine lines and wrinkles, evens skin tone, reduces enlarged pores and improves superficial scars. Some redness and swelling is normal after treatment as the skin heals. Results are not instant, but gradually improve over several weeks as fresh skin appears. A series of treatments is recommended for optimal outcome. Discuss how dermabrasion can rejuvenate your skin with uneven texture or scarring.
