Dremaplaning

Home Skin Concerns Laser Clinical Beauty Injectables Cosmetic Tattooing Products More More Dermaplaning is a skin treatment that uses an exfoliating blade to skim dead skin cells and hair ("peach fuzz") from the face. Also referred to as microplaning or blading, Dermaplaning can be used for any skin type and anyone with:

acne scars
dull skin
dry skin
sun-damaged skin
fine wrinkles.

The procedure

During a Dermaplaning procedure, no pain should be felt. However, you may feel a tingling sensation during the treatment. An electronic or manual Dermaplaning tool is used to scrape over the skin at a 45-degree angle. This will continue for 20 to 30 minutes, on average, to gently exfoliate the skin.

How it works

If you look at the tool used for dermaplaning treatments, you may notice it looks like a razor you would use on your body hair. Dermaplaning’s root concept is the same as shaving. By aiming a sterile blade at a 45-degree angle and dragging it slowly across your skin, dead cells, scar tissue, and other debris that may be making your skin’s surface look uneven can be removed. The skin is exposed daily to harsh environmental toxins, irritants, and sun damage which can cause the top layer of skin to appear dull and aged. Dermaplaning clears away these damaged skin cells revealing new and smoother skin.
