Dermaplaning is a procedure that exfoliates your skin and gets rid of dirt and vellus hair, better known as “peach fuzz.”
It’s different from dermabrasion, where an aesthetician or doctor uses a high-speed, rotating brush to exfoliate the skin. With dermaplaning, they use a scalpel or a tool called a dermatome. The doctor or aesthetician moves the dermatome, which looks like an electric razor, back and forth to scrape off the top layer of dead skin.
Benefits of Dermaplaning
The exfoliation and hair removal can leave your skin brighter and smoother. The treatment may soften fine lines and wrinkles and ease hyperpigmentation, or uneven skin tone. It’s also used to treat deep acne scars. How well it works really depends on your skin type, tone, and medical history.
Risks and Side Effects
Most people have little to no irritation or reaction. Short-term side effects may include:
Dermaplaning isn’t recommended if you have inflammatory skin conditions such as:
How long does a dermaplaning facial take?
Dermaplaning is a quick procedure and usually takes about 30-45 minutes to do the entire face. You can expect to be in and out of the office in less than an hour. That time includes your consultation, preparation, treatment, and after-care instructions.
How to Prepare
It’s best to avoid exfoliating your skin 3 days before. You should also try to avoid direct sunlight or tanning.
There’s no downtime needed to let your skin heal.
Can I get Botox after dermaplaning?
You can get a chemical peel and Botox and Filler right after a Dermaplane Treatment. But you cannot do Botox/Fillers or a Chemical peel and then do a dermaplane on the same day. Avoid swimming, intense workouts and saunas for 2 days post-treatment.
How often should you Dermaplane?
Most patients should dermaplane about once a month for ideal results. Since the body naturally replaces skin cells each month, this ensures the old cells are removed and new, healthy skin cells are visible. In some cases, more or less frequent visits may be recommended based on the patient's specific needs.
But it’s important to remember it won’t get rid of all acne scars or stop aging.
