Dermabrasion is one of the mechanical peeling methods. The procedure is based on deep skin resurfacing using a special device with attachments. The procedure involves the removal of the epidermis and papillary dermis for therapeutic or cosmetic purposes. Dermabrasion removes dead cells from the surface of the skin. Using this technique, you can also eliminate scars , shallow scars and post-acne , and reduce fine wrinkles .

Although today many different methods and methods for correcting skin defects have been introduced and studied, including chemical peels , laser ablations, and various injection treatment regimens, each method has its own indications, limitations and contraindications. In addition, the areas of application of different techniques often overlap, so mechanical dermabrasion today is unfairly relegated to the background.

However, thanks to this gentle technology (which only removes the papillary dermis), excellent aesthetic results can be achieved. An experienced specialist who knows the technique of hardware mechanical dermabrasion and uses modern and adequate methods of treating the wound surface can successfully eliminate many superficial skin defects with a good and lasting aesthetic effect.
