In a nutshell, Dermabrasion is the removal of the top layers of the skin. The procedure is intended for patients with facial scars from severe acne, injury, previous surgery, or precancerous growths. It also treats usual skin conditions caused by aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. The procedure uses a diamond wheel device to remove the upper layers of the skin, essentially damaging them to stimulate the healing process. Dermabrasion is not the same as microdermabrasion. A board-certified medical professional must perform dermabrasion with years of experience, the treatment in which Dr. Kaweski and her team of experts are highly skilled.
