PRO DERMAPLANING

Pro Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is an incredibly gentle skin resurfacing procedure in that a sharp exfoliating blade is used to scrape off dead skin cells, peach fuzz, and other surface impurities.

Pro Dermaplaning is one of the most comprehensive exfoliations of any dermaplaning treatment. This is accomplished by combining customized mechanical and chemical exfoliation techniques- utilizing chemical resurfacing and professional serums to precisely target skin concerns.

Whatever your skin concerns may be Pro Dermaplaning will instantly reveal smoother skin, help remove hyperpigmented dead skin cells and brighten your complexion.

Pro-dermaplaning can make your skin look younger; though, it doesn’t stop the aging process. Some people also get dermaplaning for hair removal. This is only a temporary fix because your hair will grow back.

How Dermaplaning works?

The dermaplaning blade moves back and forth across your skin. It doesn’t make cuts in your skin, but gently shaves off the top layers of skin.

At Nell Laser Clinic, after the this procedure, we provide skin treatment to reduce redness, and tenderness for a refresher, smoother and healthier skin.

The treatment can last anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour. The length of the procedure depends on the size of the area that needs treatment.

Most people get the procedure on their face, but you can do it anywhere on your body.

Dermaplaning vs. microdermabrasion: What’s the difference?

Both are skin resurfacing procedures. Each procedure uses different tools and takes off different amounts of dead skin cells and impurities.

This uses a scalpel (knife) or razor to remove dead skin cells and peach fuzz hair. It improves skin brightness, smoothness, and freshness.

Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive treatment that propels natural mineral crystals onto the surface of the skin and vacuums dead skin and impurities.  It means the process of scraping away the top layer of the skin. This action helps to stimulate microcirculation, increasing the blood supply to regenerate the skin. It also stimulates the formation of new collagen and elastin to improve skin texture and elasticity.

Dermaplaning has become a sought-after facial treatment for those desiring a non-invasive approach to skin rejuvenation. As we delve deeper into the world of facial dermaplaning, it’s important to address some common questions and concerns, ensuring you have a well-rounded understanding of the procedure.

Potential Negatives of Dermaplaning While dermaplaning is safe for most people, there are potential downsides to consider:

  • Sensitivity and Redness: Post-treatment, some individuals may experience temporary redness or skin sensitivity.
  • Not Suitable for Acne-Prone Skin: Those with active acne or frequent breakouts may find dermaplaning aggravates their skin condition.
  • Risk of Infection: Although rare, there’s a minimal risk of infection if the procedure is not done in a sterile environment.

Dermaplaning vs. Traditional Shaving Is dermaplaning essentially just shaving? While it might seem similar, dermaplaning is more than just shaving the face. Traditional shaving typically involves removing hair at the skin’s surface. In contrast, dermaplaning uses a specialized surgical scalpel at a specific angle, not only removing hair but also exfoliating dead skin cells. This dual action leads to a more profound and rejuvenating treatment than standard shaving.

The Efficacy of Dermaplaning for Your Face Dermaplaning is highly beneficial for the face. It can:

  • Improve skin texture, making it smoother and more radiant.
  • Enhance the effectiveness of skincare products by allowing deeper penetration.
  • Minimize the appearance of fine lines and hyperpigmentation.
  • Provide an immediate brightening effect to dull skin.

Understanding Dermaplaning Side Effects While the side effects of dermaplaning are usually minimal, they can include:

  • Slight redness or swelling immediately after the treatment.
  • Increased sun sensitivity, making sunscreen use essential post-treatment.
  • A rare possibility of minor nicks or irritation.

Addressing Common Misconceptions and Queries

    • Typically, dermaplaning is not painful. It is a non-invasive, gentle procedure, but some may experience a light scratching sensation.
  2. Can Dermaplaning Cause Hair to Grow Back Thicker or Darker?

    • This is a common myth. Dermaplaning does not alter the hair’s thickness or color. Hair will grow back as it was before the treatment.
  3. Is Dermaplaning Suitable for Sensitive Skin?

    • Yes, it is generally suitable for sensitive skin. However, individuals with highly reactive skin should consult with a skincare professional beforehand.
