It can help remove sun damage, even out pigmentation, diminish fine lines and soften acne scars. For those with acne, it can help to decrease or even stop the excess oils that tend to clog pores through the gentle abrasion process. The procedure strips away the surface skin taking with it blackheads and oils. The superficial skin is then exfoliated, texture is improved and darkened areas of color can be lightened.
