Summary

This research project aims to study the effects of microdermabrasion, a technique causing minimal injury used to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars. Subjects will undergo microdermabrasion, which is a gentle "sand-blasting" of the skin. We are interested in determining how this procedure works at rebuilding the skin following microdermabrasion.
