I have thought about the same thing. I think the procedure is microderm abrasion. The VA changed my dermatologist, so my appointment is not until May. I will be asking them about it. I have a lot of sun damage from growing up in the California desert, being the outdoorsy type, and military service. I have had seven skin cancers removed, so I am cautious about any procedures. I want to make my skin better not risk more damage.
