Hello Everyone.....I new to to this site I just wanted to get some advice.. I am eighteen years old....I have had kp since the seventh grade........I think it is time to get rid of it.....I have keratosis Pilaris (alba) It is located on my back and shoulders. I am going to get microdermabrasion done on my chest and back..But I really dont know what the outcome would be. Sooooooooo...Any of you proceeded in the microdermabrasion procedure.....If so tell me your results

I heard Vibradermabrasion is like Microdermabrasion but it's better for doing larger areas. Do a search for Vibradermabrasion and Keratosis Pilaris and you'll find a lot of information.

Here is a bit that I found on the internet which makes me want to give it a try. I wish it was covered under medical insurance because it isn't cheap.

An ideal candidate for Vibra-Infusion is anyone with fine lines and wrinkles, age spots or dull skin, acne scars, dryness or oily skin. The procedure also reduces the appearance of pore size. It is the treatment for stubborn keratosis pilaris of the arms. Patient response has been phenomenal. After Vibra-Infusion most people can’t believe how smooth their skin is- all the little bumps and uneven texture have been buffed away. After a few days when they see the tightness and firmness of their skin, they are hooked.

Thanx much appreciated I be sure to look those websites up......When you follow through with your procedure let me know your results.
