The apparatus is usable to remove surface portions of human tissue in an adjustable manner and essentially comprises a tool provided with a supply tube along which abrasive reducing substances are conveyed under pressure. A throughhole in the head disposed along the axis of the tube permits the substances to abrade the region of tissue facing the hole. A collection tube in which is created a depression is provided for the purpose of removing under suction both the reducing substances and the portions of tissue removed during the treatment.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The object of the present invention is to provide for the removal of surface layers of human tissue in an adjustable manner, which will be easy to use and which does not require for its construction the use of high technology components.
The object is achieved with the present invention as it relates to an apparatus for removing surface portions of human tissue, characterized by the fact that it comprises: pressurized fluid generating means; reducing substance supply means; suction means; and a tool having a supply tube with an inlet connected to the said pressure fluid generating means and the said reducing substance generating means, a throughhole in a head disposed along the axis of the said supply tube in a position facing an outlet from the tube itself to permit the said reducing substances to strike, in use, the said tissue removing the said surface portions, and a collection tube connected to the said suction means for the purpose of sucking both the said reducing substances and the said removed portions of surface tissue, both being stationary, in use, on the surface of the said tissue.
