Dermabrasion

Sadly, dermabrasion is becoming a lost art. It may be old fashioned, but it is still an excellent technique for some patients. Dermabrasion involves mechanically removing the superficial layers of the skin, which promotes healing with a new layer of smoother skin. It is most commonly used for severe wrinkling around the mouth and significant acne scars. Downtime varies between 5-10 days depending on depth.
