For many people, the ideal aesthetic treatment would refresh and clarify your skin, leave you with a healthy glow, and let you go back to work immediately afterward. Dermaplaning checks all these boxes, providing gentle exfoliation with numerous benefits and no downtime required.
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive skin exfoliation treatment that removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, also known as peach fuzz, using a sterile surgical blade. A skilled provider carefully glides the blade across the skin’s surface, revealing a smoother, brighter complexion. The treatment enhances product absorption and makeup application while promoting a more even skin tone.
What Does a Dermaplaning Facial Treat?
A dermaplaning facial offers multiple benefits, making it a sought-after treatment for individuals looking to improve their skin’s texture and appearance. It effectively addresses:
- Dull or rough skin
- Uneven skin tone
- Mild acne scars
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Clogged pores
- Peach fuzz
By gently exfoliating the skin, dermaplaning enhances skin radiance and creates a flawless base for makeup, making it a favorite among those who want instant results with no downtime.
How Long Does Dermaplaning Last?
The results of dermaplaning typically last about three to four weeks, depending on your skin type and skincare routine. Since the skin naturally sheds dead cells every month, regular treatments can help maintain a smooth, refreshed look. Many patients schedule dermaplaning every four weeks to optimize their results and keep their skin looking its best.
To prolong the benefits of dermaplaning, follow a good skincare routine that includes gentle cleansers, targeted skincare products, and broad-spectrum sunscreen. Protecting your skin from sun exposure helps prevent premature aging and enhances the longevity of your results
Should I Do Dermaplaning Facials at Home?
While at-home dermaplaning tools are available, professional treatments provide safer and more effective results. A trained provider uses sterile medical-grade blades and precise techniques to ensure optimal exfoliation without damaging the skin. DIY dermaplaning carries risks such as nicks, irritation, and uneven results.
Professional dermaplaning is also tailored to your skin’s needs, ensuring a safe and effective treatment. If you’re considering dermaplaning, it’s best to schedule an appointment with a qualified skincare specialist.
Am I a Good Candidate for Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is suitable for most skin types, including those with dry or sensitive skin. It is a great option for candidates looking to achieve a smooth, radiant complexion without harsh exfoliants or downtime. However, those with active acne or certain skin conditions may need to consult with a skincare professional to determine if dermaplaning is appropriate. Those with more significant signs of aging or textural issues may benefit from a more intensive treatment like laser skin resurfacing.
