TLDR Dermabrasion improves skin appearance by removing the top layer to promote healing.
Dermabrasion was a resurfacing technique that mechanically altered the skin at the dermal level to promote collagen remodeling and re-epithelialization, leading to significant improvements in skin structure, quality, and appearance. It involved controlled damage by removing the epidermis and penetrating into the dermis, leveraging the skin's rich vascular and adnexal network for rapid healing. This method was effective in addressing concerns such as sun damage, trauma, prior cutaneous carcinomas, and aging.
