Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure to gently scrape off the top layer of dead skin cells and “peach fuzz” hair from the face. This exfoliation technique aims to reveal smoother, brighter skin and assist skincare products to penetrate skin more effectively.

Dermaplaning can be compared to other exfoliation methods like chemical peels and microdermabrasion, but is unique in its ability to remove fine facial hair along with dead skin cells. Dermaplaning is a popular choice for those seeking a quick, effective way to refresh their complexion.

Key Aspects of Dermaplaning Treatment:

1. Procedure:

• A trained aesthetician applies a scalpel at a 45-degree angle to carefully remove the outermost layer of dead skin and fine hair.
• The process is typically painless and does not require anesthesia.

2. Benefits:

• Exfoliation: Removes dead skin cells, promoting cell turnover.
• Smoother Skin: Leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth.
• Enhanced Product Absorption: Allows for better penetration of skincare products.
• Improved Makeup Application: Creates a smoother base for makeup.
• Reduced Appearance of Fine Lines: Can make fine lines less noticeable.

3. Skin Types:

• Suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin.

4. Frequency:

• Typically performed every 3 to 4 weeks, as this aligns with the skin’s natural regeneration cycle.

5. Aftercare:

• Avoid direct sun exposure and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect the newly revealed skin.
• Refrain from using some skincare products for a few days post-treatment.

6. Risks and Considerations:

• Minimal risk of irritation and redness.
• Not recommended for patients with active acne, rosacea, or other skin conditions that cause inflammation or irritation.
