Acne Scars - Micro-Dermabrasion?

Micro-derm kits are now sold for all people who use them from dermatologist to general practitioners, from estheticians to home users, each kit has its use and each is of varying quality, which is reflected in price. The most recent addition is for t he home user, who has not medical training and has little money to spend on expensive visits to a dermatologist. These home kits are so common that they are often referred to as "lunch hour" treatments, not only because of their ease of use, but also the literally non-existent healing time.

Home micro-derm kits may contain aluminum oxide, lotions, a hand help sanding device, and abrasive creams, along with instructions on how to use each.

The hand sanding pad is used to apply and aggregate the abrasive, which in turn removes a fine layer of skin from the affected area. In more expensive kits a mechanical sanding device may be included, which does the same thing as the hand help pad, it is just easier to use.

My favorite home dermabrasion kit is manufactured and sold by Neutrogena. This kit is sold at most pharmacies and drug stores and it is intended for use by an untrained home user. The kit contains a mechanical applicator, an application sponge, and a abrasive cream. The instructions are very detailed and the kit is very effective in removing light acne scars as well as fine lines and wrinkles.

This kit has worked for me, that is why I have mentioned it by name, but that does not mean that you cannot find a equally effective store brand kit for a lower price if you look. I have used this successfully on myself, but you may not have the same results, I recommend you speak with a dermatologist before you use this on yourself.
