What is Dermabrasion?
Dermabrasion is a procedure used to improve the skin’s texture. It is used to smooth fine wrinkles and the uneven surfaces that result from scarring, acne, or similar problems.
How is a Dermabrasion Performed?
Dermabrasion is performed with rotary diamond and Carborum discs and essentially works like “sanding” a piece of wood. To avoid discomfort, either local anesthetics and sedatives or a general anesthetic are used.
What Can I Expect After a Dermabrasion?
A Dermabrasion leaves the treated area with a thick brown crust that separates in seven to ten days. The underlying skin appears reddened and usually requires three to six months to return to a normal hue. During this interval, the area can be covered with cosmetics as desired but must be protected from direct sunlight. Dermabrasion is usually confined to the facial area. The results of a Dermabrasion procedure are limited by the skin’s thickness and the depth of the lesion being “sanded.” Shallow scars or acne pits respond better than deep, narrow, round pits.
How Much Does a Dermabrasion Cost?
The cost for a Dermabrasion will vary depending on the severity of your case and techniques used for treatment. At your consultation, Dr. Fodor will be happy to discuss your options and cost based on your needs.

I am really happy with my rhinoplasty that I had done with Dr Peter Fodor. I highly recommend getting it done if you are considering plastic surgery. I only wish that I had gotten it done sooner. Everything has changed for the better. I feel better about myself and my outlook on life has skyrocketed. Plastic surgery is not just for women. Thank you so much.

Dr. Fodor is the most minding and expert specialist. He sets aside the opportunity to clarify and respond to every one of my inquiries. He is with you each progression of the procedure and catches up with telephone calls when you are recouping at home. My experience was easy with great outcomes.

I found Dr Fodor extremely professional and thorough. He took time to show me the x-rays and explain the procedure he would do and why in regards to removing a large bump on my forehead. Previously I had a consultation with another doctor who was very negative. Reviewing Dr Fodor’s impressive credentials I am confident he will do a great job with my challenge and I feel blessed to have found him.
