Dermabrasion is based on the underlying principle that, if the top layers of damaged skin (epidermis and upper layer of the dermis) are removed, the skin can reconstruct and regenerate itself totally or partially.
With the technological advances of the past few years in facial rejuvenation, it is now possible to obtain astounding results with minimal risks
The dermabrasion method was introduced in the 40s. Over the last 50 years, dermabrasion has been greatly improved, having been frequently tried and tested.
The procedure consists in abrading the surface of the skin with a small, rotating wheel. Dermabrasion is therefore a mechanical skin resurfacing method and can be done under local or general anaesthesia, depending on the areas to be treated and the depth of the treatment.
Dermabrasion works efficiently on certain types of scars (acne scars) and wrinkles, especially the wrinkles and lines around the mouth.
The ageing process of our skin brings about certain physiological changes directly related to the clinical aspect of the skin.
