Professional dermaplaning is a non-invasive skincare treatment that uses a surgical scalpel to remove dead skin cells and vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the surface of the skin. It helps to reveal smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin.

During a professional dermaplaning treatment, your trained advance aesthetician gently glides a sterile surgical scalpel across the skin at a 45-degree angle. This process exfoliates the top layer of dead skin cells and removes vellus hair, allowing for better product absorption and a smoother complexion.

Some benefits of professional dermaplaning include improved skin texture, increased product penetration, reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, smoother makeup application, and a brighter complexion. It can also help with the removal of dead skin cells, debris, and vellus hair, resulting in a more even skin tone.

Professional dermaplaning is generally suitable for all skin types. However, individuals with active acne, open wounds, or sensitive skin conditions may need to avoid this treatment. It is best to consult with a skincare professional to determine if dermaplaning is right for you.

Professional dermaplaning is a painless procedure. Most individuals find it to be a comfortable and relaxing experience. However, slight tingling or mild discomfort may be experienced in some cases.

The frequency of professional dermaplaning treatments may vary depending on individual needs and skin concerns. Typically, it is recommended to have dermaplaning done every 3 to 4 weeks to maintain optimal results.

When performed by a trained professional, dermaplaning is generally safe. However, there may be a slight risk of redness, sensitivity, or minor irritation immediately after the treatment. These side effects are temporary and usually subside within a few hours.

Dermaplaning can help improve the appearance of acne and acne scars by exfoliating the skin and promoting cell turnover. However, it is important to note that dermaplaning is not a treatment for active acne. It is best to consult with a skincare professional for a personalized treatment plan.

Individuals with sensitive skin can still undergo professional dermaplaning. However, it is important to inform your esthetician about your skin sensitivity so that they can adjust the treatment accordingly and use gentle techniques and products.

The professional dermaplaning procedure typically takes 1 hour, depending on the areas being treated and any additional skincare treatments included in the session. The duration may vary slightly depending on individual circumstances.
