Make Dermaplaning a duo facial. Add it to other modalities

Dermaplaning, or blading, is an exfoliating treatment that provides an alternative to chemical peels or microdermabrasion and is a good choice for anyone who has fine facial hair (peach fuzz), extremely sensitive skin, redness or rosacea, or visible facial veins.

The dermaplaning treatment is done by an experienced aesthetician who uses a blade to gently exfoliate the outer layer of dead skin cells and remove fine facial hair commonly known as “peach fuzz”.

A noticeable improvement is immediate with smoother texture and fresh skin appearance. Hair returns softly and will not become coarser because of the treatment. Even products penetrate the skin better following this treatment.

When patients evaluate various skin rejuvenation options, they may hear about a treatment known as dermaplaning. While the name may sound a bit scary, the procedure is one of the most comfortable and gentlest available. 

Who’s a Good Candidate for Dermaplaning?

This skin-renewing treatment is beneficial for those who don’t qualify for other, more aggressive treatments. For instance, chemical peels are proven effective, but many clients have skin sensitivities that exclude them from treatment. Dermaplaning is an excellent way to remove unwanted hair on the face, leaving the skin smooth and supple.

How It Works

After cleansing and toning of the face, the skin care expert uses a sterile scalpel to scrape away the topmost layer of dead skin cells, oil, and dirt. After the treatment is over, some clients may receive a chemical peel for additional exfoliation, tone brightening, and fine line elimination. Finally, tailor-made skin care products are applied. There’s no irritation or redness, and clients can resume their normal cosmetic and skin care routines immediately.

How the Procedure Rejuvenates the Skin?

Our dermaplaning services rejuvenate the skin in much the same way as other exfoliation methods. When the skin’s uppermost layers are removed, the healthy layers underneath are revealed and the client enjoys a healthy, revitalized appearance. However, the benefits go on. Dermaplaning kicks the skin into overdrive, encouraging the production of new cells, as well as elastin and collagen. All three of these are very beneficial for the skin, as they restore its fresh, youthful appearance.

Is Dermaplaning an Effective Acne Scar Treatment?

Almost everyone experiences an acne problem at some point in their life, and without proper skin care and treatment, scarring may occur. If a client has severe acne scars,

dermaplaning is an effective treatment. However, clients should learn about the causes of acne to prevent additional scarring and reduce the frequency of breakouts.

How Often is Treatment Necessary?

In most cases, dermaplaning is done every three or four weeks to allow the skin to rejuvenate itself between treatments. Procedures generally remove two or three weeks of dead skin cells from clients’ facial areas. Dermaplaning isn’t recommended for those with existing acne or excess sebum (skin oil) production, because skin oils may encourage the growth of bacteria that cause acne breakouts.

What Clients Should Expect After a Dermaplaning Treatment?

There’s no concern about facial hair growing back darker, as many believe. Because dermaplaning targets the shortest, thinnest hairs on the face, everything will grow back the same color and size. The side effects of dermaplaning are minor. In most cases, slight peeling is the biggest concern, and it only occurs when the hair hasn’t finished its regrowth cycle. With our customized treatment plans, clients are sure to have enough time in between treatments to achieve optimal results.
