Dermabrasion

About the Surgery

Dermabrasion, a cosmetic procedure, enhances the skin’s appearance by removing outer layers to address issues like acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, and sun damage. Utilizing a motorized brush or diamond-tipped wand, the top skin layers are gently removed, promoting healing over time and revealing smoother, even-toned skin. This versatile procedure is applicable to various areas like the face, neck, chest, arms, and hands. Typically performed under local anesthesia, with the possibility of general anesthesia for certain cases, the duration and recovery period vary based on the treatment area and individual skin type.
