Everything There is to Know About Dermaplaning
On the hunt for a gentle exfoliation solution? Look no further than dermaplaning. This technique eliminates dead skin layers, leaving behind a radiant glow. But what does dermaplaning entail, you ask? Essentially, it’s akin to shaving the face with a sharp, medical-grade scalpel.
What is dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a skin rejuvenation technique that targets dead skin cells and fine vellus facial hair, commonly known as peach fuzz, to promote a more radiant and smoother skin appearance. Our expert medical aesthetician utilizes a medical-grade scalpel to carefully eliminate unwanted dead skin cells and hair. This treatment is entirely safe, painless, and requires no downtime.
Dermaplane vs. Shaving
A significant difference between Dermaplane and regular facial shaving is the tool used. Dermaplaning employs a medical-grade scalpel, whereas home shaving typically relies on razors. This distinction results in Dermaplane being more effective at removing dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. Additionally, while an at-home razor may have 2-3 blades, dermaplaning utilizes only a single medical-grade scalpel blade.

What can I expect during my dermaplaning treatment?
The initial stage of a dermaplane treatment involves thoroughly cleansing the skin to establish a sterile and clean surface. At Allure Aesthetic Center, we employ a peel prep to eliminate the skin’s natural oils, optimizing results. The procedure commences along the jawline, progressing upward with the blade held at a consistent 45-degree angle as the practitioner gently strokes it upward. Following each session, moisturizer and SPF sunscreen are applied to maintain adequate hydration and protection.
Who should get dermaplaning done?
Dermaplaning is considered safe for individuals of all skin types, particularly advantageous for those with sensitive skin. Nevertheless, there are circumstances where dermaplaning may not be appropriate, such as inflamed acne, numerous raised skin lesions, open wounds, nickel allergies, or recent use of Accutane within 6 months prior to treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my hair grow back darker and thicker?
Dermaplaning specifically addresses vellus facial hair, which is lighter and finer compared to terminal hair. Because dermaplaning doesn’t directly affect the hair follicle, it doesn’t have the ability to change the growth pattern.
How do I take care of my skin after a dermaplaning treatment?
After your treatment, your skin becomes sensitive because the outermost layers have been shed. It’s important to prep your skin by using gentle cleansers and moisturizers for 48 hours prior to your session.
Why should I get a dermaplane instead of other skin care treatments?
The removal of the top layer of dead skin cells minimizes the possibility of pore blockage, leading to a decrease in breakouts. Furthermore, this leaves the skin feeling smooth and exfoliated.
How often should I get a dermaplane treatment?
Optimal dermaplaning frequency is once every three to four weeks. During each session, approximately two to three weeks’ worth of dead skin cells are effectively removed.
