DERMAPLANING THERAPY
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a sterile surgical scalpel to gently exfoliate the skin’s surface, removing dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, often referred to as “peach fuzz.” This treatment aims to reveal smoother, brighter, and more radiant skin.
WHAT DOES THE PROCEDURE ENTIAL?
During a dermaplaning session, a trained aesthetician or dermatologist will carefully glide a scalpel across the skin in short, upward strokes. The blade is held at a precise angle to effectively remove dead skin cells and vellus hair without causing irritation or discomfort. The process is painless and typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes to complete.
BENEFITS
Exfoliation: By removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells, Dermaplaning helps to improve skin texture and promote cellular turnover, resulting in smoother, softer skin.
​
Brightening: The exfoliation provided by Dermaplaning can reveal a brighter, more luminous complexion by removing dull, uneven skin cells and allowing new, healthy skin to emerge.
​
Hair Removal: In addition to exfoliation, Dermaplaning effectively removes fine vellus hair from the face, which can help makeup application go on more smoothly and create a more flawless finish.
​
Enhanced Product Penetration: After dermaplaning, skincare products are more easily absorbed into the skin, as there are no barriers of dead skin cells or hair obstructing their penetration. This can enhance the effectiveness of serums, moisturizers, and other skincare treatments.
​
Reduced Appearance Of Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Dermaplaning can help minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by promoting collagen production and smoothing out the skin’s surface.
​
Safe For Most Skin Types: Dermaplaning is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin, as it is non-invasive and does not involve the use of harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
​
While Dermaplaning provides immediate results and requires no downtime, it is essential to follow proper post-treatment care, such as applying sunscreen and avoiding direct sun exposure, to protect the newly exfoliated skin.
