Dermaplaning is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a surgical instrument to gently exfoliate the top layer of skin, removing dead skin cells and fine facial hair.
Dermaplaning works by using a sterile surgical instrument, such as a scalpel, to gently exfoliate the top layer of skin. The practitioner holds the instrument at a specific angle to the skin and makes gentle upward movements to remove dead skin cells and fine facial hair.
Expected results of dermaplaning include smoother, softer skin, improved texture, a more radiant complexion and reduced visibility of fine lines and pores. By removing dead skin cells and facial hair, dermaplaning also enables better absorption of skin care products, which can lead to more effective results when combined with other treatments.
Dermaplaning offers many benefits, including:
Initial consultation
Before starting treatment, a consultation with a skin care professional is essential to assess your skin and determine whether dermaplaning is right for you.
Action principle
This facial treatment temporarily removes peach fuzz and dead skin cells, promoting a softer, brighter skin tone and better absorption of skin care products.
Session sequence
Treatment begins with skin cleansing. During a dermplaning procedure, the specialist uses a small scalpel, holding the skin tightly while gently passing the blade over the skin surface, removing dead skin cells and facial hair. To conclude, the technician performs a face-lifting massage and applies a moisturizing mask. As an option, LED light therapy can further enhance results, guaranteeing a multidimensional approach to skin renewal.
Treatment duration
This treatment lasts approximately 60 minutes.
Number of sessions and intervals
Generally performed every 3-4 weeks to maintain optimal results.
Post-treatment
A daily sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher is essential.
Is dermaplaning recommended for acne?
Although dermaplaning helps to treat the appearance of acne scars, it is not recommended in cases of active acne or frequent skin eruptions. The procedure can cause overactivity of the sebaceous glands in these individuals, leading to excessive oil production and further inflammation.
