Dermaplaning consists of manual exfoliation using a specialized surgical blade that safely removes the uppermost layer of the skin, specifically dead skin cells that have accumulated over time and “peach fuzz”. Dermaplaning will allow new skin cells to exude, resulting in a healthy glow, clean skin and softness. It can also be used prior to other treatments such as a facial or chemical peels, this will allow a deeper penetration of the products applied, hence better results.
No. Dermaplaning does not interfere with the follicular structure of the hair, thus having no effect on hair growth whatsoever.
Unlike terminal hair (think eyebrows), vellus hair has no appearance of a blunt end when shaved. This is often where the “thicker” looking aspect of hair growth comes from – the blunt end created by slicing the follicle.
Dermaplaning should be received once every 4 weeks (monthly) to achieve optimum anti aging benefits. For removal of facial hair, primarily, every 4-6 weeks is recommended.
Dermaplaning is safe for all skin types and recommended for those who want a non-invasive, affordable skin rejuvenation treatment that focuses on quick treatment sessions and no recovery time. Those who want to treat poor skin tone, acne scars, unwanted facial hair, large or clogged pores, dry skin, fine lines and wrinkles can achieve great success with dermaplaning treatments. Who should not get dermaplaning?
You should not receive dermaplaning if you are allergic to nickel, have undergone Accutane treatments within the last 6 months, have numerous raised lesions on the skin or inflamed acne.
