Facial Dermaplaning: Smoother, brighter, and more youthful skin

Facial dermaplaning is a non-invasive skincare treatment that involves using a sterile, surgical-grade scalpel to gently scrape off dead skin cells and peach fuzz hair from the surface of the skin. This treatment is becoming increasingly popular due to its ability to leave the skin looking smoother, brighter, and more youthful. In this article, we will discuss the benefits of facial dermaplaning, what to expect during the procedure, and how to care for your skin afterward.

Benefits of Facial Dermaplaning

Facial dermaplaning offers several benefits for the skin. These include:

  • Exfoliation: Dermaplaning removes dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, which can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and acne scars.

  • Smoother skin: Dermaplaning can leave the skin feeling smoother and softer to the touch.

  • Better product absorption: By removing dead skin cells and peach fuzz hair, dermaplaning can help skincare products penetrate more deeply into the skin, making them more effective.

  • Makeup application: Dermaplaning can make makeup application smoother and easier, as it removes peach fuzz and creates a smooth, even surface for makeup application.

 

What to Expect During the Procedure

Facial dermaplaning is a quick and painless procedure that can be done in a spa or skincare clinic. Here is what to expect during the procedure:

  • Cleansing: The skin is cleansed thoroughly to remove any makeup, oil, or dirt.

  • Prepping: A toner or prepping solution is applied to the skin to remove any remaining residue and prepare the skin for the dermaplaning process.

  • Dermaplaning: The esthetician uses a sterile, surgical-grade scalpel to gently scrape off dead skin cells and peach fuzz hair from the surface of the skin.

  • Post-treatment: After the dermaplaning is complete, a soothing serum or moisturizer is applied to the skin to help reduce any redness or irritation.

How to Care for Your Skin After Facial Dermaplaning

After the dermaplaning procedure, it is important to take proper care of your skin to ensure the best possible results. Here are some tips to help you care for your skin after facial dermaplaning:

  • Avoid sun exposure: It is important to avoid exposing your skin to direct sunlight for the first few days after the procedure. If you need to be outside, wear a hat or use sunscreen to protect your skin.

  • Avoid exfoliation: It is important to avoid using any other exfoliating products for a few days after the procedure, as your skin will be more sensitive than usual.

  • Use gentle products: Use gentle skincare products for a few days after the procedure to avoid irritating the skin.

  • Avoid makeup: It is best to avoid using makeup for the first few days after the procedure, as your skin may be more sensitive than usual.

  • Moisturize: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to help soothe and nourish the skin after the procedure.

 In conclusion, facial dermaplaning is a non-invasive skincare treatment that offers several benefits for the skin. By removing dead skin cells and peach fuzz hair from the surface of the skin, dermaplaning can leave the skin looking smoother, brighter, and more youthful. If you are interested in trying facial dermaplaning, talk to your esthetician or skincare professional to see if it is right for you.
