Exfoliate Your Skin with Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning

If you’ve tried every skincare product on the market and are still frustrated by a dull and lifeless complexion, you may want to try dermaplaning. This cosmetic procedure is an exfoliating treatment that is performed with a precision scalpel. The dead skin cells and vellous hair, better known as peach fuzz, are gently removed from the face. This process is completely safe when performed by a trained professional and will reveal brighter, smoother skin when complete.

More About Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a safe and non-invasive treatment for those looking to renew their skin through exfoliation. It feels somewhat like shaving your legs. Your face will be cleaned and dried. Next, the practitioner will pull the skin taut in order to use short, steady strokes to remove the dead skin cells and hair.

Sessions take about 20 minutes to complete and can be repeated monthly. The length between maintenance sessions depends upon how quickly your hair grows.

Benefits of Dermaplaning

Though it may sound harsh, dermaplaning is actually a very gentle and controlled form of exfoliation. Unlike peels, there are no chemicals used. So you don’t have to worry about allergies or other side effects. Also, the procedure is more precise than microdermabrasion, which uses a wand with an abrasive rotating tip made of diamond or crystal to exfoliate the skin. No other method of exfoliation removes peach fuzz, either. Doing so gives you a smooth canvas for your makeup and eliminates the hairs that often attract dirt or debris.

Best Candidates for Dermaplaning

People of all skin types can undergo dermaplaning, though it may be most effective for people with dry or maturing skin. Older skin regenerates at a slower pace, leaving you with higher levels of built-up dead skin cells to slough away. If you’re pregnant, nursing or simply concerned about the use of artificial chemicals on your body, dermaplaning is ideal for you. There are no risks of adverse effects as there are no products or chemicals used in the procedure.

Dermaplaning is not simply shaving the skin and shouldn’t be tried at home. When done by our trained professional, it can be an extremely safe and effective method to achieve brighter and smoother skin.
