What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a physical exfoliation technique that involves the use of a sterile, precision blade to carefully sweep away the outermost layer of dead skin cells along with fine facial hair, often called peach fuzz. This gentle treatment is non-invasive, free of chemicals, and well-suited for a wide range of skin types, including those with sensitivity. It offers a comfortable experience without the use of abrasive products or devices.
By clearing away surface buildup, dermaplaning reveals a smoother, more even complexion and instantly enhances skin radiance. It also preps the skin for better absorption of skincare products and provides an ideal base for flawless makeup application.
The Benefits of Dermaplaning
Clients who undergo dermaplaning often notice a visible difference in their skin’s smoothness and brightness right after the treatment. Some of the key benefits include:
- Instant removal of dull, dead skin cells
- Smoother skin texture and more even tone
- Better absorption of skincare products
- Flawless makeup application
- Reduction in the appearance of fine lines and minor acne scars
- Non-invasive and painless, with no recovery time required
With no use of heat or chemical agents, dermaplaning offers a safe and gentle solution for individuals with delicate or reactive skin.
The Dermaplaning Process
Dermaplaning is a straightforward treatment that typically takes 30 to 45 minutes. After cleansing your skin, a trained provider uses a sterile, medical-grade blade to gently remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells along with fine facial hair. The blade is carefully guided across your skin at a precise angle, exfoliating the surface without discomfort. Most people describe the sensation as a light scraping or brushing feeling.
After the treatment, your skin may appear slightly pink but will feel noticeably smoother and look more radiant. There’s no downtime, and normal activities can be resumed right away. Gentle skincare and daily sunscreen are recommended to protect your refreshed skin.
Is Dermaplaning Right for You?
Dermaplaning is a versatile treatment that suits various skin types and tones. Individuals experiencing active acne or chronic skin sensitivities, including rosacea or eczema, should consult with a provider to determine if dermaplaning is appropriate.
A common myth is that removing facial hair through dermaplaning will cause it to grow back thicker or darker. This is not true. The fine vellus hairs will grow back at the same rate and texture as before. Your comfort and understanding are important to us, and we’re always available to discuss any concerns you may have throughout the process.
