I went to a Plastic Surgeon (Boarded Certified) and he recommended Active FX with dermabrasion in some areas for mild acne scarring. Is it common to combine these procedures?
Minnie, Active FX is a relatively new technology and there is not a lot of information on it, especially if combined with Dermabrasion. Dermabrasion, alone gives excellent results for acne scarring and I am not sure that Active FX will give you anymore benefit. It will be hard to find a lot of information on the results of these treatments when used together.
My advise is to find someone with lots of Dermabrasion experience, as most of the result will be achieved by this treatment method.
Best of luck,
Dr Siegel
I have had microdermabrasion for years. but should i get dermabrasion for longer lasting results? what's the difference between microdermabarsion and dermabrasion?
There are many forms of microdermabrasion, but all of them are very superficial. A simple version could be considered "sand blasting" the skin, and cleans out pores. It is generally performed by aestheticians. True dermabrasion is when a high speed drill with a diamond bur is used to lower the level of your skin. It is a surgical procedure only performed by physicians, and does result in bleeding. It is very useful for deep lines, but it has a significant recovery period (it is very similar to a second-degree burn). I generally only use this technique around the mouth for very deep set lip-stick lines in patients undergoing full facial rejuvenation. Nothing else works quite as well in these circumstances.

Dr.B
