“How to get rid of hypopigmentation after dermabrasion”
Dermabrasion: NOT worth it
Cost: $1,500
Pain: Severe
Review of Dermabrasion:Pain: Severe
Dermabrasion satisfaction: Poor
I do not recommend my Dermabrasion provider: Name not provided
Why: Asian with dark skin please be careful with dermabrasion because it may give hyperpigmentation or worst hypopigmentation.
Pros: Not Worth it
Cons: Very Painful
Asian with dark skin had dermabrasion 7 months ago, no improvement at all. I wish that i didn't have the procedure. I blame myself for not doing enough research about the side effects.
Please help. My new skin is too white, it doesn't blend in with the old skin. I felt so terrible to go out in public because people would notice right away.

I agree that a dermabrasion is not worth it. I had my procedure done 24 years ago to smooth out acne scars. My skin has never returned to its former color. It's whiter than my the lower part of my neck. It looks like I had a head transplant. I am very self-conscious about it. I am a man and it looks like I had a face lift or worse that I tried to hang myself because of the distinct line on my neck on both sides where the new skin meets the old skin. I have to wear high color shirts. T-shirts are the worse. Going to the beach is a problem. I am now looking into micropigmentation to erase the line around my neck so it will blend into my old skin. While my acne scars are gone, I have very mixed feeling about it. I just traded a teenage problem for a whole adulthood problem.
