What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a sterile surgical scalpel to gently scrape away dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (commonly known as peach fuzz) from the surface of your skin. This process not only exfoliates the skin but also helps to remove built-up debris, unclog pores, and stimulate the skin's natural regeneration process.
Benefits Of Dermaplaning
- Smooths Skin Texture: By removing dead skin cells and peach fuzz, dermaplaning leaves your skin feeling incredibly smooth and soft to the touch.
- Improves Skin Tone: Dermaplaning helps to reveal fresh, new skin cells, resulting in a more even and radiant complexion.
- Enhances Product Absorption: With the outer layer of dead skin cells removed, your skincare products can penetrate more deeply into the skin, maximizing their effectiveness.
- Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Dermaplaning can help to diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving your skin a more youthful appearance.
- Safe for All Skin Types: Dermaplaning is a gentle and safe procedure that is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
