Dermaplaning is a physical exfoliation procedure. It requires the use of a sterile, surgical scalpel to gently "shave" the skin's surface, removing the top-most layer of dead skin along with fine, vellus hair (aka peach fuzz).
Benefits of dermaplaning
Physical exfoliation triggers the cell regeneration process and allows products to better penetrate the skin. Dermaplaning is also excellent to rid the face of excess fine hairs which can often accumulate dirt and oil. Contrary to popular belief, vellus hairs, as opposed to terminal hair, will not grow back thicker or darker. Exfoliation of dead cells along with the removal of fine hairs results in healthier, brighter skin that has a smoother look and feel.
Who should consider dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is especially effective on people with dry or rough skin texture., It helps to minimize superficial acne scarring or uneven skin tone. It is also beneficial for mature skin, which tends to have buildups of dead cells as cellular turnover slows down with age. Dermaplaning is safe for pregnant or lactating clients who cannot have chemical peels (peels penetrate the skin to act at the cellular level, thus are contraindicated).
Sensitive skin types may not tolerate the procedure well. Inflammatory skin conditions such as rosacea, eczema, psoriasis, active acne and vascular lesions may not be suitable for this procedure.
It's NOT recommended for women who suffer from excessive facial hair ( known as hirsutism due to polycystic ovaries, a hormonal condition that affects one in 10 women).
