If the top layer of skin is removed, it's important to clean the area gently with mild soap and water to prevent infection. Apply an antibiotic ointment and cover the wound with a sterile bandage to protect it. Keep the area clean and monitor for signs of infection, such as increased redness, swelling, or pus. If the injury is extensive or shows signs of infection, seek medical attention.

Name of outermost layer of the skin?

It depends on which structures you are calling skin. The skin is made of dermis and epidermis. The outer thin layer is the epidermis, but it itself, is made of 4-5 layers depending on where it is located on the body. The most outer and the thinnest of the epidermal layers is called the coreum. It is the layer that we shed as it dies off and falls off.

Does microdermabrasion get rid of clogged pores?

Microdermabrasion is a skin rejuvenation technique that works by peeling off the dead skin cells layer, revealing the new skin layer underneath. In fact, clogged pores are caused by dead skin cells, dirt, bacteria or dust which accumulates on the stratum corneum layer of the skin. So basically, when microdermabrasion peels off the layer of dead skin cells, it clears out the clogged pores as well.
