Micro Dermabrasion

Microdermabrasion (often referred to as Microderm) is a cosmetic procedure in which the stratum corneum (dead outermost surface of the skin) is partially or completely removed by light abrasion, to remove sun-damaged skin and to remove or lessen scars and dark spots on the skin.

The procedure is not very painful and requires no anaesthetic. Microdermabrasion can be used medically for scar removal when the scar is raised above the surrounding skin.  Microdermabrasion can also be used for treatment of acne, but must be repeated periodically to be effective.
