In this article, we’ll explore the benefits of dermaplaning, what to expect, and how it can help you achieve your skincare goals.

What is Dermaplaning?

With dermaplaning, dead skin cells are gently removed from the face using a sterile surgical scalpel, along with peach fuzz (fine vellus hair) from the face. By eliminating this outer layer, dermaplaning reveals fresher, smoother skin beneath, which can minimize dullness, unevenness, and fine lines. This treatment is safe, painless, and suitable for nearly all skin types, making it an excellent option for those seeking a quick boost to their complexion.

What To Expect During The Procedure?​

Dermaplaning is a quick, painless procedure typically lasting 30 to 45 minutes. Here’s what you can expect during your dermaplaning treatment at Radiance Skincare & Laser Medspa:

Consultation and Skin Preparation

Your esthetician will assess your skin to ensure dermaplaning is the right choice for you. Your face will then be cleansed to remove any makeup, oil, or impurities.

Exfoliation With a Sterile Scalpel

Using a gentle, precise technique, the esthetician will glide a sterile knife over your skin to remove dead skin cells and fine hair. You may feel a light scraping sensation, but the process is entirely pain-free.

Post – Treatment Care

After the exfoliation, a soothing moisturizer and SPF are applied to protect your skin.As a result of the treatment, you can immediately return to your regular activities with fresh, glowing skin. Some redness may occur right after the treatment, but this usually subsides within a few hours.

Active acne sufferers or those with inflamed skin may need to wait until their skin clears up before trying dermaplaning. During your consultation, your esthetician will assess your skin to ensure dermaplaning is your best option.

Before and After Care Tips

Before Treatment

  • Avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least a week before your appointment.
  • Refrain from using retinol, chemical exfoliants, or other harsh skincare products for a few days leading up to your treatment.
  • Arrive with a clean face, free from makeup or heavy moisturizers.

After Treatment

  • Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer for the first few days following your treatment.
  • Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, as your skin will be more sensitive to the sun post-treatment.

  • Refrain from heavy makeup application for 24 hours while your skin heals.
