Dermaplaning: What Is It?
How Does Dermaplaning Work & Is It Right For You?
Are you searching for a way to achieve smoother, more radiant skin? Look no further than dermaplaning—a revolutionary exfoliation technique that can work wonders for your complexion. From enhancing skin radiance to improving texture and promoting better product absorption, dermaplaning has gained popularity as a non-invasive solution for a wide range of skincare concerns.
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation procedure that involves gently scraping the surface of your skin with a sterile, surgical-grade scalpel. The process effectively removes dead skin cells, built-up debris, and fine vellus hair (commonly known as "peach fuzz"). This non-invasive treatment is performed by trained aestheticians & skincare professionals at Kellogg Clinic Aesthetic, Laser & Weight Loss Center and offers a multitude of benefits.
Benefits of Dermaplaning
- Enhanced Skin Radiance: By removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells, dermaplaning reveals a fresh, glowing complexion underneath. This exfoliation process promotes cellular turnover, allowing healthier skin cells to surface and creating a brighter, more youthful appearance.
- Smoother Texture: Dermaplaning effectively eliminates the build-up of rough, uneven skin texture, leaving your skin feeling incredibly smooth and soft to the touch. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals struggling with rough skin, acne scarring, or fine lines.
- Improved Product Absorption: With the removal of the superficial layer of dead skin cells, dermaplaning allows for better absorption of skincare products such as moisturizers, serums, and masks. Your skincare routine becomes more effective as the active ingredients penetrate deeper into the skin.
- Temporary Hair Removal: While dermaplaning primarily focuses on exfoliation, it also removes the fine vellus hair on your face. This can create a smoother canvas for makeup application and ensures that your foundation and other products glide on effortlessly.
- Safe and Painless: Dermaplaning is a non-invasive procedure that does not require any downtime. It is a comfortable experience and is generally suitable for most skin types and tones.
Procedure and Aftercare
During a dermaplaning session, your skincare professional at Kellogg Clinic Aesthetic, Laser & Weight Loss Center will cleanse your skin thoroughly and use a sterile scalpel to gently scrape your skin at a 45-degree angle. The process is performed with light, feathery strokes, focusing on one area at a time. After the treatment, a soothing moisturizer or other recommended skincare products may be applied to enhance the healing process.
To maintain the results of your dermaplaning treatment, it is important to follow a proper skincare routine and protect your skin from excessive sun exposure. Your skincare professional can guide you on post-treatment care and recommend suitable products to optimize your results.
