Dermaplaning is a minimally invasive procedure that shaves away the top layers of your skin. It can help reduce the appearance of acne scars or pitted skin. Some people get dermaplaning to remove unwanted hair.
Dermaplaning is a cosmetic procedure that can help improve the appearance of your skin by removing the outer layer of dead skin cells and revealing newer, healthier skin. This can be particularly helpful for reducing the appearance of acne scars or other skin imperfections. While it can make your skin look younger, it's important to note that it doesn't stop the natural aging process.
Dermaplaning can also be used for temporary hair removal, although hair will eventually grow back. While most people get the procedure on their face, it can be done on any part of the body.
Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, oils, or impurities.
Your provider will go over your face with a sterilized dermaplaning tool. They will hold the sharp blade at a 45-degree angle while dragging it over the skin.
Apply a hydrating SPF on the treated are.
Recovering from a TCA peel can take as little as 48 hours for mild treatments or up to seven days for stronger treatments.
The treatment is about 15 - 20 minutes long.
After your TCA peel, your skin will be susceptible to UV damage (from sun exposure) for a few weeks. You should, therefore, stay indoors as much as possible and use both a high-SPF sunscreen and a hat to protect your face when you go outside. You should also avoid the use of cosmetics, acne creams, and other topical medications for at least two weeks after your peel.
