Dermabrasion
Possible Complications of Dermabrasion
One must be realistic about the limits of dermabrasion treatment: it is not likely to completely remove the scar but it will improve it. Complications are possible and must be discussed. The most common complication after dermabrasion is inadequate improvement of the scar. Others are permanent scarring if the abrasion is too deep, hyper pigmentation and hypo pigmentation, prolonged redness, and a risk of reactivation of herpes if you had that in the past. Dr. Cruise will discuss possible complications with you during your consultation.
Dr. Cruise has extensive experience with dermabrasion through his treatment of burn victims.
