What is it: Dermaplaning is a method of exfoliating the skin to reveal a smoother, brighter appearance. In addition to appearance improvements, this treatment allows for greater penetration of skincare products and is even recommended for more invasive procedures.
How does it work: For this treatment, an esthetician will firstly cleanse and dry your skin. Then, using a surgical grade 10 gauge scalpel blade, the esthetician will use swift strokes to gently scrape off dead skin cells and peach fuzz. The treatment generally takes between 30 minutes to an hour.
What does it treat: Dermaplaning is not used to address specific conditions, but is instead used as a general beauty enhancing treatment. Dermaplaning removes 21 days of dead skin cells, so it is best to allow the skin to complete its rejuvenation cycle before beginning another treatment. Clients who have had this treatment report smooth, glowing skin.
