Dermaplaning
Improve and smooth skin texture!
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique that uses a sharp surgical blade to gently shave the outer layers of the skin to remove dead, dull skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) that is often found on the face.
What can I expect After Treatment?
There is no down time involved with dermaplaning, though there may be slight redness in the treated areas which will subside within a few hours of the treatment. Products will be able to penetrate the skin more efficiently and thus more effectively. Makeup can be worn immediately after, with a noticeably smoother application. Dermaplaning can be combined with services such as microdermabrasion and chemical peels for improved results.
Exfoliating products such as alpha hydroxy acids and beta hydroxy acids (AHA’s and BHA’s), retinoids, and scrubs should be avoided 5 days before and after treatment to avoid excessive skin exfoliation and irritation. It is also important to use a sunscreen daily after this treatment, as skin will be more sensitive to the sun’s harmful rays after treatment.
FAQs
The benefits of dermaplaning include: improved skin texture and skin smoothing, reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reduced pigment irregularities, collagen stimulation, skin tightening, skin brightening, and improved product absorption, ultimately leaving the skin ultra-smooth and soft, with a glowing, lit-from-within complexion. Another added benefit of dermaplaning is that the removal of vellus hairs allows for an improved application and appearance of makeup products.
This treatment is perfect for all skin types, especially those who seek the advantages of professional exfoliation but have skin that is too sensitive for other exfoliating treatments such as microdermabrasion.
