Skin Resurfacing or Dermabrasion is helpful in eliminating irregularities in the skin's surface, such as acne and chicken pox scars. The affected area is "sanded" to give the face a smoother look and feel.

Chemical Peeling is a similar procedure, which uses a solution to remove very fine surface wrinkles and vertical lip lines. Chemical peels are often completed in conjunction with face-lift procedures.

A variety of lasers are now available for skin resurfacing to remove age spots and fine lines. The best laser choice depends upon the specific skin need.
Depending upon the extent of the procedure, a surgicenter stay and general anesthesia may be required. For all resurfacing methods, the skin requires approximately two weeks to heal and an additional two months to lose the new healing pinkness.
