Dermaplaning
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is an exfoliation treatment. It can be performed as a standalone treatment or add on to another procedure, such as facial or chemical peel. The esthetician uses a small scalpel to exfoliate the surface of the skin and remove small, fine hairs on the face. Dermaplaning is recommended every 4-6 weeks, depending on how quickly the hair grows back.
Benefits of Dermaplaning
- Immediate exfoliation
- Smoother and dewy complexion
- Better skincare product absorption
- Removal of dead skin cells and peach fuzz
- Improved skin texture
- Faster cell turnover rate
- Better alternative than other exfoliating treatments for sensitive skin
Does a Dermaplaning Treatment Hurt?
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive and pain-free treatment. Depending on your skin sensitivity, there may be slight redness following the treatment, but this typically resolves in a few hours
