Dermaplaining

Dermaplaning is a skin treatment that removes dead skin cells and hair from your face using an exfoliating blade. It is also known as microplaning or blading. Dermaplaning seeks to make the surface of your skin smooth, young, and radiant. This therapy claims to erase severe acne scars as well as uneven skin pockmarks. It’s also used to get rid of “peach fuzz,” which are the short, delicate hairs on your face. Dermaplaning helps cosmetics to penetrate deeper, resulting in more colourful skin. A fantastic standalone treatment or add-on to facials, peels, and other skincare procedures. Dermaplaning is safe for all skin types and requires no downtime.

How It Works

Dermaplaning is similar to shaving in its core premise. By running a sterile blade over your skin at a 45-degree angle, you may remove dead cells, scar tissue, and other material that may be making your skin’s surface seem uneven.

GETTING READY

You will first lie down on our chair in a clean, pleasant room. There may be sedation alternatives available, which commonly involve a numbing spray or local anesthesia mixed with an oral sedative or, in rare cases, general anesthesia.

PROCEDURE

 After you’re relaxed, we will use an electronic or manual dermaplaning tool to scrape over your skin at a 45-degree angle. This will continue for 20 to 30 minutes, on average, gently exfoliating the skin.

FINISH UP

After the treatment, we will soothe your skin using a material such as aloe. They will also apply sunscreen on your face to protect it.

FAQ

Who needs Dermaplaning?

It is an excellent choice for customers with sensitive skin and pregnant ladies seeking a thorough exfoliation. It can be done before treatments including as facials, laser, microdermabrasion, and chemical peels to improve product penetration. It can be done often.

What are the side effects of Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a safe technique. In the hours following the treatment, you may have minor redness in your face. Some people have whiteheads on their skin within a day or two of dermaplaning.

Is Dermaplane the same as shaving?

Shaving the face eliminates vellus hair, sometimes known as “peach fuzz.” Dermaplaning is a type of exfoliating therapy that also removes vellus hairs. A professional esthetician uses a sterile surgical blade to remove vellus hairs and dead skin cells during dermaplaning.

How often should you Dermaplane?

Dermaplaning should be done every three to four weeks. An aesthetician will assist you in developing a schedule. Each dermaplaning procedure removes two to three weeks’ worth of dead skin cells.

Is Dermaplaning good for blackheads?

Dermaplaning also has the added benefits of reducing the appearance of fine lines, evening skin tone and assisting with the reduction of milia, blackheads, whiteheads and congestion associated with breakouts.

What happens when hair grows back after Dermaplaning?

Your hair will regrow in the same colour and thickness that it was before. It’s just that after dermaplaning, because you’re eliminating the dead layer of skin and vellus hair, your skin will seem lot brighter than it has in the past, and then it will appear darker following regrowth.

How long does it take to Dermaplane?

Dermaplaning takes around 30 minutes and there is no downtime.

Is Dermaplaning painful?

Dermaplaning is completely painless. A trained aesthetician does it by gently scraping over the surface of the skin.

 

 

Can I combine Dermaplaning with a chemical peel?

Yes, without a doubt. Dermaplaning can improve the outcomes of a chemical peel by eliminating dead skin cell accumulation and allowing the chemical peel to penetrate deeper.

I have very fair skin, can I still get a Dermaplaning treatment?

Absolutely. Dermaplaning is suitable for people of all skin tones. Consult an aesthetician for case-specific guidance and to set realistic expectations for your treatment.
