Benefits of Dermaplaning: Exfoliated, Smooth Skin in No Time!

Have you been dreaming of silky smooth perfect skin? Tired of trying multiple facials and skincare creams that still leave you looking for more? Get ready to discover the world of beauty through dermaplaning. Together we can explore the benefits of combining a skilled esthetician with a specialized scalpel-like tool that results in smooth, exfoliated skin.

What is dermaplaning? 

The process of dermaplaning is a pampering facial that results in a new, refreshed version of your skin. This non-invasive treatment is fairly simple and doesn't take much time out of your busy schedule, making it the perfect procedure for those looking for a quick refresh. 

The simplest way to explain dermaplaning is  to equate it to a professional method of exfoliation that is carried out using a tool known as a dermatome. The dermatome is important as it removes dead skin, oil buildup, and fine hairs from the surface of your face, clearing up your skin and encouraging the generation of new skin cells.

What will the results look like? 

As with most beauty treatments, the results depend on how well you take care of your skin before and after the in-office treatment. It’s important to follow a daily routine based on your esthetician’s personalized recommendations. Dermaplaning enhances your skin's natural beauty as vellus hair is removed, uneven skin tones and fine lines are diminished, and fresh, healthier skin is revealed!

What is the process of dermaplaning? 

The whole process begins with a quick cleanse before your skin care technician gently glides a scalpel-like blade over the surface of your skin. Due to the 45 degree angle of the blade and the light pressure being applied, there should be no cutting or nicking of the skin. Once the entire area has been treated, your esthetician may opt for a soothing toner or similar serum to ensure that your skin is properly refreshed following your dermaplaning treatment. Right after dermaplaning, skincare products work more effectively by deeply penetrating your skin.

Once you’re all done, your specialist will go over helpful tips and tricks to keep your skin looking and feeling healthy.

The many benefits of dermaplaning

If you’re unsure about how this skin treatment can help positively impact your mood and self image, we’ve listed out our six favorite dermaplaning benefits that we know you’ll love too. 

Dermaplaning is a relaxing act of self-care

First, let’s remember that although this skincare treatment does target outward skin concerns, it can also positively impact your mental wellbeing, and overall sense of wellness. Taking time out of your day to focus on improving yourself either mentally or physically can have such a positive impact on our mood and set the tone for the day.

Those with dry skin benefit greatly from dermaplaning

For individuals with dry, flaky skin, dermaplaning can provide significant results and even help improve the quality of skin on your face. How does it work? Well, when all the dead and dry skin is removed, not only are any texture problems resolved, but your newly exposed skin is now able to easily absorb beneficial products to help nourish your skin. 

Light acne scars benefit from dermaplaning 

In the event that you have minor acne scars, dermaplaning actually helps reduce the appearance and prominence of scarring with every treatment. While these results will not be as effective as microneedling, it still offers overall improvement with your texture and acne scar issues.

Skin is rejuvenated and looks youthful

Due to the turnover of skin cells as a result of this skin care routine, your newly surfaced skin ends up looking youthful and rejuvenated. Expect a soft glow that could make a baby jealous after each session!

Dermaplaning is great for all skin types

Regardless of your skin type, dermaplaning is a wonderful skincare option that leaves you glowing. Yes, that means it’s safe for those with sensitive skin, too! Since this process exfoliates the skin without the need for rough, mechanical exfoliants, those with sensitive skin do not experience the negative side effects they may be used to from other exfoliating products.

Peach fuzz gets removed during dermaplaning

Vellus hairs, also known as peach fuzz, will also be taken care of during your dermaplaning session. This hair removal means that you can say goodbye to that pseudo mustache and cakey makeup, and say hello to fresh, new skin.
