What are the benefits of dermaplaning?
- Softens the appearance of fine lines and superficial acne scars
- Provides a brighter, dewy, more even complexion
- Gently removes dead skin buildup for an instant, healthy glow
- Leaves skin feeling soft, silky and smooth
- Removes “peach fuzz” that traps dirt and oil
- Promotes a smoother makeup application, resulting in a more even and flawless finish
- Allows for better absorption of your skincare products so that they work more effectively
How is dermaplaning done?
Before beginning, our specialists will cleanse your skin. We will then gently glide a scalpel along the top layers of your skin to exfoliate it and remove hair. While you may feel a scratching sensation on your face, our clients say the procedure is not painful. Afterward, we’ll apply a soothing gel to your skin to reduce redness and irritation.
What can I expect from a dermaplaning treatment?
Most clients notice an immediate glow, smoother makeup application and softer skin after just one treatment. It’s also normal to experience mild redness or a sensation of a mild sunburn for about 24 hours. For best results, avoid direct sunlight, exfoliating products and active ingredients such as retinols or acids for 24-48 hours. Be sure to keep skin hydrated and apply SPF daily to protect your freshly exfoliated skin.
To maintain your results, consider treatments every 4-6 weeks.
Your hair color, thickness or amount of hair does not change after a dermaplaning treatment.
