Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a method of physical exfoliation and hair removal using a sterile single blade, surgical scalpel. Dead skin cells on the surface can make your skin look dull and the skin texture looks uneven. This exfoliating skincare treatment gently eliminates vellus hair (peach fuzz) and reduces acne scars. Removing the outer layer of dry skin, clears any buildup of dead skin cells and makes your hairless skin look and feel fresher.

Benefits:

  • removes soft facial hair that traps dirt and oils
  • provides deeper product absorption
  • smooth skin
  • flawless makeup application
  • reduces the appearance of acne scars
  • removes dead skin cells from the surface layer, that block pores
  • decreases the look of fine lines and improve skin tone
  • works on every skin type (except active acne)
  • instant results, ultra-smooth skin, fresh, and glowing skin - no downtime!

After this skin treatment, your skin will be highly sensitive to sun exposure and may look a bit pink so suncream of SPF 30 or higher is recommended to reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation. Dermaplaning will not cause hair to grow back thicker or darker. Can be performed every 2-4 weeks.

Aftercare...

Your skin may be slightly pink because this is an exfoliating treatment, but this will fade very quickly.

Your skin will be more vulnerable to irritation and the sun for the next 3 days. It is very important that you try to avoid sun exposure. If you must be in the sun, wear a minimum of SPF 30 and a hat.

Use a gentle cleanser and warm water to wash your face. Your skin will be more sensitive to your normal skincare products. Avoid scrubs, and any product containing alpha-hydroxy such as glycolic acid, or beta-hydroxy acids such as salicylic acid, Retin A, or retinol for at least 3 days.

Avoid picking, rubbing, or scratching your face.

Avoid extreme heat and chlorine for 3 days.

You may apply hydrating or soothing serums, such as hyaluronic acid as their efficacy will be increased.

Wait 1 week for any facial waxing.
