Dermaplane is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses a special tool at a forty-five-degree angle and strokes along the skin while holding the skin taut to remove “peach fuzz” and dead skin cells.

 

Dermaplane is performed as a stand-alone treatment before other skincare treatments to enhance effectiveness. This is a wonderful form of exfoliation that can be used with or without chemicals. This treatment does not require downtime and will effectively smooth acne scars and give you the smoothest possible skin.

 

What Are The Benefits of Having Dermaplane?

  • Promotes smoother skin

Is Dermaplane Safe?

When performed by a well-trained professional, dermaplanning is very safe.

 

Will My Hair Grow Back Thicker?

No. This is physiologically impossible. Two types of hair grow on your body. Vellus hair, when cut or removed, will grow back the same size and shape; therefore, the main structure of vellus hair does not change and is not altered by dermaplanning. Terminal hair, however, is physiologically coarse. When this hair type is cut, it will always grow back coarse. Dermaplanning is designed to treat the vellus hair located on the face. Once vellus hair is cut it will maintain a blunt edge, and this blunt edge will not physiologically alter the hair itself.

 

What Areas Can Be Treated?

Dermaplanning is performed on the face only.

 

How Often Is The Procedure Performed?

Dermplanning is usually performed every three-four weeks. Treating the skin in this manner removes about two-three weeks' worth of dead skin cells. The skin needs to complete its normal thirty-day rejuvenation cycle before the treatment is done again.

 

Does The Skin Peel From Dermaplanning?

Occasionally the skin will peel after a dermaplane. If the procedure is done in two week intervals, the growth cycle of your hair may not be complete; therefore you are treating skin unnecessarily. This may cause peeling to occur.

 

What Skin Types/Conditions Can Be Treated?

All skin types may benefit from dermaplanning. A dermaplane is not recommended if you have acne or an excessive production of sebaceous gland oil. (Sebaceous glands excrete oil along the vellus hair). If the hair is removed, the oils may cause bacteria growth that can stimulate acne breakouts.
