  • Posted to How to Get Rid of Hypopigmentation After Dermabrasion - Ontario, Canada on 10 Nov 2009

    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.
