I had dermabrasion a long time ago, done by a highly reputable plastic surgeon. I was horrified to discover after the treatment that my face was covered in a mask of blackened dried blood. It took days for my face to look close-to-normal. Then I had to find some way of reducing the extreme redness that made me look quite strange (I was a male bartender at the time). I ended up having to put on Clinique foundation just to do my job. The improvements were largely due to the swelling the treatment caused on my face. After 6 months, I couldn't really see a big improvement. Considering it was a huge ordeal and the results were questionable, I would NOT recommend a full dermabrasion. If your problems, like mine, are due to areas of collapsed collagen, dermabrasion is not the way to go. Remember, doctors will do any procedure to make some money.
Note: Microdermabrasion isn't remotely the same as a full dermabrasion. Microdermabrasion is a pleasant buy not terribly effective treatment for general skin tone. I've had microdermabrasion.
