What is Dermaplaning ????

What  is a dermaplane facial?

It may sound frightening at first but please continue to read all the facts. A dermaplane facial involves the use of a sterile surgical scalpel that is gently run across the face in short upward strokes. This removes dead skin cells and vellus hairs (peach fuzz). While a surgical scalpel is used, it does not penetrate your skin as it is held at a 45 degree angle, simply intended for scraping the skin.

Here are the benefits of dermaplaning:

Removes Facial Hair

A dermaplane facial has a similar function to the “shaving your face” fad. But it is much more effective because of the type of blade used. This one is much sharper than what you can purchase in stores, and by having a professional aesthetician take care of those problem areas you are much more likely to experience a better result.

Exfoliates Skin

While many people first consider getting a dermaplane facial as a pain-free method to hair removal, the dermaplane facial has many other benefits. And one of these is to remove dead skin cells from the face. Unlike with microdermabrasion and other exfoliation methods, dermaplaning does not require any special chemicals and is non-abrasive. This makes it great for those with sensitive skin while leaving the skin looking naturally flawless and feeling smooth to the touch.

Anti-Aging Properties

First let’s debunk what anti-aging is. Anti-aging products and treatmentsdo not reverse the affects of aging skin. What it does do is prevent any further damage, and help reduce the appearance of the effects damage has already done to the skin. With a dermaplane facial, you essentially shave off that entire top layer of dead skin, reducing fine lines, acne scars and hyperpigmentation . This makes the skin look more awake and revitalized, which gives you that younger appearance.

Painless

Many hair removal treatments are painful. Whether you get your facial hair waxed or tweezed, or removed with lasers, the pain of hair removal is unnecessary. While a dermaplane facial is the most harmless. It provides for a completely painless and relaxing experience.

No Down Time

With many other treatments, your face may be beet red after, which leaves you not wanting to go out in public.....dermaplaning does not do that.

Makeup Goes on Smoothly

The best benefits comes how amazing your skin will look.. it will have a gorgeous soft glow to it. Once you get a dermaplane facial, your makeup will easily glide over your now smooth and movie star quality skin.
