Abstract: | This review presents skin anatomy, dermabraders, indications for dermabrasion and microdermabrasion, and dermabrasion techniques for the face, along with potential complications. Dermabrasion is a minimally invasive technique used for skin resurfacing. Its applications include treatment of rhytids, abnormal scarring, and premalignant lesions. The risks of complications are low and include pigment changes, hypertrophic scarring, and infection. Despite the introduction of newer therapies, such as lasers and chemical peels, dermabrasion remains an effective tool for physicians to combat the effects of aging without the downtime required for surgery. |
