An edge face of a deposited film at an edge portion of a device wafer having the deposited film formed on a substrate is polished at a substantially right angle so as to prevent the deposited film from peeling-off and dusting. A forming body having a sectional shape substantially agreeing with that of an edge portion of a device wafer after polishing, which is an object to be polished, is rotated and brought into contact with a polishing body so as to form a polishing portion on the polishing body surface. The edge portion of the object to be polished is rotated and urged into contact with the formed polishing portion, so that the edge portion of the object to be polished is polished in a sectional shape agreeing with that of the polishing portion of the polishing body. The edge face of the deposited film on the substrate surface is polished not slantingly but at a right angel so as to be removed, so that peeling-off of the deposited film due to a post-process, etc., which will generate a foreign substance, can be prevented.
