Dermaplaning

What is dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation that removes the top layer of skin and peach fuzz. It’s a painless procedure that freshens up the skin and is beneficial for most skin types.

How does dermaplaning work?

A dermaplaning facial treatment works by using a medical blade to remove the dead skin and peach fuzz from the face. The blade is used to scrape the skin leaving you with fresh, rejuvenated skin.

 

Is dermaplaning good for your skin?

What are the benefits of dermaplaning?

 

There are many benefits to dermaplaning including the removal of dead skin, vellus hair, sebum and blackheads leaving the skin with a fresh smooth layer. This makes skin care more absorbable, makeup application smoother and overall brightens the complexion.

 

How long does dermaplaning last?

 

Dermaplaning lasts approximately 4 weeks before needing another treatment. A dermaplaning facial treatment is recommended every 4 to 6 weeks to maintain the skin.

How often can dermaplaning be done?

 

Dermaplaning can be done every 4 to 6 weeks. Anything sooner than four weeks apart would be over exfoliation of the skin. This can cause damage to the face and is not necessary as the results are meant to last 4 to 6 weeks.

 

Does hair grow back thicker after dermaplaning?

 

No. Hair does not grow back thicker after dermaplaning. The peach fuzz on our faces is called vellus hair. Although the follicles are the same as the hairs on our head and other body parts (terminal hair), vellus hair grows thinner, lighter and will not grow back thicker (as terminal hair) when removed during dermaplaning.
