Dermaplaning

dermaplanning

Dermaplaning is an innovative approach to removing dead skin cells, allowing a jump start for skin renewal and infusion of nutrients. It is a simple and safe procedure using a sterile blade for exfoliating the top layer of the skin and ridding the skin of fine vellus hair (peach fuzz). This treatment results in a more refined, smooth, “glowing” appearance.

At Advanced Skincare our dermaplaning facial includes a therapeutic mask to calm, hydrate, and peptides to rejuvenate the skin.

Dermaplanning is a great treatment to offer to those who are pregnant or nursing.

What to expect?

• Dermaplaning is a simple, easy, painless, non-invasive manual skin exfoliation treatment.
• Treatment includes cleansing and preparing the skin for the manual exfoliation process. Then an anti-aging eye treatment, moisturizer, and sunblock are applied.
• The dermaplaning treatment takes approximately 30 – 45 minutes depending on the area being treated.
• This treatment can be performed at any time of the year on all skin types and there is no discomfort with this treatment.
• Normal activities may be resumed immediately.

After Treatment
• The skin will be more sensitive to sun exposure, so an SPF of 50 or higher is required for a minimum of the first 2 weeks.
• Many clients see results after their first treatment, noticing better skin clarity, clearer pores, softer skin, and reduce fine lines.*

Commonly Asked Questions

If I remove my facial hair will it grow back darker and thicker?

The answer is NO. There are two types of hair on the human body, terminal and vellus hair. Terminal hairs are the thick pigmented hairs that grow by the influence of hormones (legs, armpits, scalp, pubic area, etc). Vellus hairs are fine translucent hairs usually found on a woman’s face, back, or chest. Unlike terminal hairs, when vellus hairs are cut they grow back with the same thickness and length as before, only with a blunt tip, and are expected to return in approximately two to four weeks post-procedure. Removal of vellus hair and dead skin cells allows for the proper penetration of other facial products, increasing their efficacy and ultimately their results.

How often can you be Dermaplaned?

Dermaplaning removes about 2-3 weeks of dead skin cells, so for your skin to complete its normal skin cycle, approximately 30 days, the treatments should be done about once a month.

What’s the difference between shaving and Dermaplaning?

People often think that they are the same. They are not. Dermaplaning is performed by trained Medical Esthetic Professionals using a surgical scalpel on tautly stretched skin. Most razors have two blades that are much duller than a surgical blade. Dermaplaning requires short strokes at a certain angle in particular patterns depending on the facial region and resurfaces skin on a much deeper and more effective level than shaving.
