Everything There is to Know About Dermaplaning
Seeking a smooth exfoliation that won’t irritate your skin in Brookhaven? Dermaplaning is the answer! This treatment gently eliminates dead skin, leaving you with a radiant, glowing appearance. But how does dermaplaning work? It involves using a medical-grade scalpel to precisely shave away dead skin from the surface of your face.
What is dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a treatment that helps achieve smoother, more glowing skin by eliminating dead skin and fine hair, also known as peach fuzz. A medical aesthetician uses a medical-grade scalpel to carefully exfoliate the skin, removing the outer layer of dead cells. This safe, pain-free procedure requires no downtime, leaving the skin refreshed and radiant.
Dermaplane vs. Shaving
The main difference between dermaplaning and shaving is the tool used. Dermaplaning uses a medical-grade scalpel, while shaving typically involves a razor with 2-3 blades. Dermaplaning is more effective in removing dead skin and fine hair, providing a deeper exfoliation. It’s a more precise treatment, offering superior results when compared to shaving.

What can I expect during my dermaplaning treatment?
The first step is a thorough cleansing of the skin to provide a clean and sterile base. At Allure Aesthetic Center, we also apply a peel prep to eliminate natural oils, ensuring the best possible outcome for smoother skin for clients in Brookhaven. The procedure begins at the jawline and continues upwards, with the practitioner maintaining a 45-degree angle while gently using the blade. To finish, we apply a moisturizer and SPF sunscreen to hydrate, soothe, and protect the skin from environmental damage.
Who should get dermaplaning done in Brookhaven?
Dermaplaning is safe for all skin types, including those with sensitive skin that require gentler treatment. However, it is not suitable for individuals with inflamed acne, raised skin lesions, open wounds, an allergy to nickel, or those who have used Accutane in the last 6 months.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my hair grow back darker and thicker?
Dermaplaning removes vellus hair, which is lighter and softer than terminal hair. As dermaplaning does not interact with the hair follicle, it has no impact on how the hair grows back, and it will not become darker or thicker.
How do I take care of my skin after a dermaplaning treatment?
Following your dermaplane treatment, the skin will be more delicate, so it is important to use mild cleansers and nourishing moisturizers for the next two days. This helps keep your skin hydrated and ensures proper recovery.
Why should I get a dermaplane instead of other skin care treatments?
Dermaplaning removes the top layer of dead skin, preventing those cells from clogging your pores, which in turn reduces the likelihood of breakouts. It leaves the skin feeling smoother and looking more radiant.
How often should I get a dermaplane treatment?
Dermaplaning is best performed once every three to four weeks. This frequency allows for the removal of accumulated dead skin cells, keeping your skin smooth and refreshed.
