Dermaplaning is a deep exfoliating treatment that uses an exfoliating blade to skim
dead skin and vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the surface of the face. A special surgical
blade is used at an angle to exfoliate the epidermis of the skin.
If you have dry, course or uneven skin tone you will benefit greatly from this
treatment. This treatment is not suitable if you have acne, extremely oily or very dark
course facial hair.

Dermaplaning aims to make your skin’s surface smooth, youthful and radiant. This
treatment claims to remove deep scarring from acne and uneven pockmarks on your
skin. It can be used for any skin type and anyone with acne scars, dull skin, dry skin,
sun-damaged skin, fine wrinkles
You may be advised to add a chemical peel to your dermaplaning treatment. Right
after dermaplaning, your skin is able to deeply absorb and benefit from a chemical
peel in a way it can’t at other times.
After this treatment you won’t need to take time off from work, you may even be able
to fit it in during your lunch break.
How it works?
If you look at the tool used for dermaplaning treatments, you may notice it looks like
a razor you would use on your body hair.
The basic concept of dermaplaning is the same as shaving. By aiming a sterile blade
at a 45-degree angle and dragging it slowly across your skin, remove dead cells,
scar tissue, and other debris that may be making your skin’s surface look uneven.
Your skin is exposed daily to harsh environmental toxins, irritants and sun damage.
This can cause the top layer of your skin to appear dull and it can make you look
aged. Dermaplaning clears away those damaged skin cells so newer skin cells are
what you see when you look in the mirror.
Dermaplaning is a low-risk procedure. Side effects may include slight redness in
your face in the first few hours after getting the treatment.Also, some people develop
whiteheads on their skin in the day or two after dermaplaning.
You don’t need to plan any downtime to recover from a dermaplaning treatment. You
may experience redness or feel like your skin is scraped in the two or three days
right after the procedure. You may notice that your skin looks brighter immediately
after you’re finished with a dermaplaning treatment, but it often takes a few days to
appreciate the full results. As any redness subsides, you’ll be able to see the results
more clearly in the days afterward.
Please keep in mind that the results of dermaplaning aren’t permanent. The
procedure claims to clear away up to three weeks’ worth of dead skin cells. After
three weeks to a month, your results will have faded.
Please note that after a dermaplaning treatment, you’ll need to be extra careful about
sun exposure. Sun damage could reverse the effects of dermaplaning or create
pigment blotches on your freshly uncovered skin cells. In the weeks after a
dermaplaning treatment, don’t leave the house without wearing sunscreen on your
face.
