What Is Dermaplanning?
Dermaplaning is a popular, non-invasive cosmetic procedure that boosts skin health and wellness and reduces the appearance of imperfections. During your dermaplanning treatment, your skilled BYou therapist will use a special surgical tool to gently shave away the top layers of skin. This effectively removes dead skin, 'peach fuzz', and the uppermost layer of the skin. In essence, the treatment works much like exfoliation, getting rid of fine vellus hair and old skin cells to significantly transform the look and feel of your skin.
Dermaplaning treatments can significantly reduce the appearance of blemishes, post-acne hyper-pigmentation, and other skin imperfections by revealing the brighter, healthier skin beneath. Dermaplanning treatments generally last around 30 minutes and during the treatment, your therapist will gently glide the surgical scalpel across your skin at a 45-degree angle, revealing the smooth skin beneath.
Treatments are non-invasive and pleasant, so you don't have to worry about feeling any discomfort. During your consultation, your therapist can advise on the frequency of future appointments, but it will likely be around the 4-week mark to ensure you retain the transformative results. They can also answer any skincare questions - and offer advice about p your at-home skincare routine.
The Benefits of Dermaplanning
Professional dermaplanning with an experienced technician offers so many visible results. These include:
Brighter, smoother skin: One of the best benefits of dermaplanning is that results are almost instant. Since the therapist removes all the dead skin cells and fine peach fuzz hair, your skin will look and feel smoother to the touch and you'll enjoy that instant glow immediately after your session.
Better product absorption: Another incredible reason to consider dermaplanning is that it significantly improves the way in which your skin absorbs active ingredients. Since your serums and creams don't have to contend with dead layers of skin and fine hairs, they can target your skin easily and offer better results.
Easier make-up application: Professional dermaplanning creates the ideal canvas for effortless, smooth make-up application. Say goodbye to flakey foundation and uneven finishes, and hello to smoother, silkier skin that looks flawless.
Reducing future break-outs: While dermaplanning isn't advised on skin with active acne legions, it can significantly reduce the likelihood of future breakouts by exfoliating the skin and allowing active ingredients to properly penetrate the pores.
Brighten dull, lacklustre skin: Moreover, dermaplanning can give you that gorgeous glow by stimulating cell turnover and encouraging healthier skin. It also works to reduce the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, and uneven complexion.
Aftercare Tips
Happily, since dermaplanning is non-invasive, you don't have to do too much after your treatment. Nonetheless, your therapist might advise the following:
Don't exfoliate your skin for a week after your treatment (with both chemical and enzyme exfoliants)
Ditch the make-up for at least 24 hours after treatment
Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 3 days and always wear sun protection when you're outside (even in winter!)
Skip extreme heat like saunas and steam rooms for a week
Don't swim in chlorinated pools for a week
