DermaplaningFor the smoothest looking skin possible, a method called dermaplaning (that's a controlled scraping of the skin's top layers) is used. Think manual exfoliation, and you've got the idea. It's a non-invasive treatment, using either a scalpel or electric razor-like instrument, and can be performed on its own, or prior to other skin care treatments in order to enhance their effectiveness. Frequently Asked Questions What Can Dermaplaning do for me? Dermaplaning results in smoother facial skin, including the removal of fine hair. The procedure is also specifically used to reduce acne scarring and small lines. Dermaplaning can be done as a stand-alone treatment or in conjunction with other procedures. By skimming off peach fuzz (which traps dirt and oil) and with the extra exfoliation it provides, dermaplaning enhances the effectiveness of other skin care treatments, and helps with product penetration. How does Dermaplaning actually work? The simple procedure is performed by gently moving a scalpel or dermatome (which is like an electric razor) over surface layers of the face to remove fine facial hair and to exfoliate the skin. How much does Dermaplaning cost? A full dermaplaning facial treatment takes up to one hour and costs $80. If there is a small area of skin you wish spot-treated in this manner, the cost would be adjusted accordingly.
