Dermaplaning

DERMAPLANING

What is it?

Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique that uses a scalpel or surgical blade to delicately remove vellus hair (peach fuzz), surface debris and dead skin.

Vellus hair—the fine fuzz on the face—causes dirt and oil to collect in the follicles, so removing it gives healthier looking skin. With the removal of the outermost epidermal skin this allows products to penetrate more readily into the deeper skin layers.

Dermaplaning can soften, brighten and improve skin texture and tone, which will result in a fresh, more youthful appearance immediately. Dermaplaning is frequently recommended before medical procedures like laser treatments or deep chemical peels.

Benefits of dermaplaning include increasing absorption of topical products, diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, priming the skin for chemical peels, creating a healthier and more radiant appearance.
