dermabrasion
Dermabrasion is a resurfacing procedure in which the upper layer of skin is exfoliated (removed) by a high-speed machine with an abrasive wheel or brush to gently remove the outer layers of your skin and improve any irregularities in your skin's surface. It usually done in local anesthesia.
Some of the conditions it can treat include:
- fine lines or wrinkles.
- sun damage.
- Uneven skin tone.
- Superficial acne scars.
- scars from surgery or injury.
- tattoos.
- rhinophyma (thick skin on the nose).
The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia. General anesthesia can be given to treat larger areas. Pre procedure antibiotic is started to reduce the chance of any infection. During dermabrasion the surgeon rotates a device called dermabrader over the skin to be treated. This device has rough surface that abrades the outer layer of skin. Small dressing is done over treated area. It will take almost a month for new skin layer to reappear.
