What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a skin resurfacing procedure that gently removes the outer most layer of dead skin cells and peach fuzz on the face. The immediate result is fresh, bright, and smoother skin. This treatment is recommended for all skin types. Dermaplaning is when a special blade, known as a dermatome, is used to remove the top layers of the skin in order to treat acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, remove vellus hair (peach fuzz), as well as improve skin tone and texture.
Dermaplaning is great on its own or can be done immediately before a chemical peel as it allows the peel to work more effectively. By removing the outer layer of dead skin, the peel may be applied more evenly for a more dramatic result.
