Abstract

Chickenpox scars currently donot have definitive evidence based treatment. Microdermabrasion is a minimally invasive epidermal resurfacing procedure used to treat uneven skin tone/texture, photoaging, striae, melasma, and scars. In our study microdermabrasion was performed in a subject with post varicella scars in order to evaluate the efficacy of the same. Keywords: Microdermabrasion, Chickenpox, Scar.
