Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation treatment that removes the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz), resulting in smoother, brighter skin with improved texture and tone. Before dermaplaning, skin often appears dull, rough, and may have uneven makeup application due to peach fuzz and dead skin buildup. After the treatment, skin feels smoother, looks radiant, and makeup applies more evenly, creating a fresh and glowing complexion. Additionally, skincare products absorb better, enhancing their effectiveness. The skin may show a temporary redness immediately after treatment, which fades to reveal a luminous, "glass skin" effect. Regular treatments can reduce fine lines, soften acne scars, and maintain a youthful glow.
Before Dermaplaning
- Skin may look dull, rough, uneven with visible dead skin cells and peach fuzz.
- Makeup application is often uneven and may cling to fine hairs or dry patches.
- Skincare product absorption is limited by the outer layer of dead skin.
After Dermaplaning
- Skin feels incredibly smooth and soft due to removal of dead skin and fine hair.
- Complexion appears brighter, more radiant with an even tone.
- Makeup glides on effortlessly creating a flawless finish.
- Skincare ingredients penetrate more deeply for better hydration and anti-aging effects.
- Temporary redness or glow immediately post-treatment is normal.
- Regular treatments can improve fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars over time without causing hair to grow back thicker or darker.
Post-Treatment Care
- Hydrate skin well and use gentle moisturizers.
- Avoid sun exposure and use SPF 30+ daily as skin is sensitive post-treatment.
- Avoid exfoliating acids, retinoids, or abrasive products for a few days.
- Maintain regular treatments every 3-4 weeks for best results.
In summary, dermaplaning leads to a visibly smoother, brighter, and more youthful complexion, with multiple before and after benefits noticeable immediately and continuing to improve with regular sessions.
