What Is Dermabrasion?
Damage and blemishes can build up on the surface of the skin, resulting in a dull complexion with spots, scars, and fine lines. At Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery, dermabrasion treatments take off the damaged and dead skin cells from the upper layers of the face, revealing a younger look with even, clear skin that feels soft and smooth. Made to even out the texture and tone of the complexion, dermabrasion might be a good treatment for those not ready for facial surgery.

How Is Dermabrasion Performed?
The dermabrasion treatment process begins with a thorough consultation to assess the patient’s skin and determine the best approach for their needs. On the day of the procedure, the patient is taken to a treatment room, where their skin is cleansed and prepped. Local anesthesia is typically administered to numb the treatment areas, ensuring comfort throughout the process. A specialized tool with a rotating, textured brush is used to gently exfoliate and remove the upper layers of skin, effectively addressing issues such as scars, fine lines, and uneven texture. The treatment usually lasts about 30 – 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. Once completed, patients can return home, often resuming their normal activities with minimal downtime.

Hedden & Gunn Plastic Surgery Reviews
Dr. Gunn is so wonderful, he was a blessing to me on Thursday my procedure process went very well, also my recovery is doing great also. I just want to say I’m so thankful for the wonderful staff and especially the surgeons who made my day worth while ! You all are awesome 👏🏾
I am so grateful and dazzled by Dr Halka’s skill and care! (Don’t let the low prices lead you to doubt this fabulous surgery, spa, or doctors.) I love having my body back, and how closely Doctor Joshua Halka and his staff have continued to look after me, months after my surgery!
Dr. Gunn is awesome to say the least! He done my breast implants and I’m so happy I chose him to do them. After the surgery, I took a short nap then got up, went shopping and to a movie with my husband. Dr. Gunn was very thorough and answered any and every question I had! The nurses are all so nice, knowledgeable, and helpful also. The anesthesiologist was great and talked me through the whole process. Thank you for such an amazing experience!
10/10 recommend Dr Halka and his staff! I researched other local plastic surgeons before making my decision. I loved the reviews I read & before & after results from Dr. Halka. My experience has been amazing throughout the whole process from the consultation to post op. I had abdominoplasty & breast augmentation done on 5/21. My results are even better than I expected, I couldn’t be more thrilled! I finally have my confidence back after having 2 children. Dr Halka is very knowledgeable, kind & compassionate. He answered all of my questions with ease. I would highly recommend him to my friends and colleagues. If you’re considering taking the next step, schedule a consultation. You will be in great hands! Thank you Dr. Halka!
Just had breast augmentation yesterday and am already in love. Dr. Hedden was very patient with my questions and concerns and all of his staff are wonderful. The anesthesiologist was great and I was in and out with no memory of anything except sitting on the surgery table. Highly recommend.
