Dermabraision is a pretty low risk procedure. The limitations depend upon your skin color more than the procedure itself. As with all resurfacing procedures there is a risk of leaving your skin with less pigment than it originally had, a condition known as hypopigmentation. Dermabraision has somewhat higher risk for that than other methods like the roller or fractional CO2 laser treatment. However, dermabraision is likely to give you the best results. If your skin is darker than average you do have a risk of hypopigmentation. If you are fair skinned your risk is smaller since you don't have as much pigment to lose.

I hope this info helps!
