Dermaplaning at SkinOvation Advanced Aesthetics
Every day, skin is exposed to environmental stressors, which, when combined with internal factors, have a negative impact on skin. To address this, dermaplaning removes the topmost layer of skin to reveal brighter skin beneath which results in a glowing, refreshed appearance.
This procedure involves passing a medical-grade scalpel at a 45-degree angle over the entire face. The blade removes the dead skin cells and tiny hairs called vellus hair which can give skin an uneven texture. Dermaplaning can be compared to a nonabrasive exfoliation with the added benefit of hair removal.
After a session, your skin will be noticeably brighter and smoother. Skin care products will absorb more effectively, and makeup will sit more evenly on your skin. You'll also be less susceptible to acne breakouts, as your face's natural oil won't be trapped in your skin by dead skin cells or hair.
With repeated treatments, dermaplaning can also reduce hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, minimize pores and smooth out depressed acne scars.
Who are the Best Candidates for Dermaplaning?
Almost all men and women are good candidates for dermaplaning. This procedure is safe for all skin types and tones.
However, if you have active acne, rosacea, psoriasis, eczema or any condition that compromises your skin health, other treatments may be more appropriate; this procedure may cause excessive skin peeling and irritation.
