What condition is not addressed by microdermabrasion?

Sun Damage
Acne Scars
Deep Wrinkles
Hyperpigmentation

The correct answer is: Sun Damage

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that can help improve various skin conditions by exfoliating the outermost layer of the skin. It is effective in addressing acne scars, deep wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. However, when it comes to sun damage, particularly severe cases like deep wrinkles caused by prolonged sun exposure, microdermabrasion may not be the most effective treatment option. Sun damage may require more intensive treatments such as laser therapy or chemical peels to achieve significant results. Therefore, sun damage is not typically addressed by microdermabrasion, making option A the correct answer.
