Dermaplaning

What is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a highly effective procedure for removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells. The Dermaplaning pros will also remove the layer of vellous hair that often covers the face and this can be done with the expertise at Revive MD Center.

Combine with a hydrating mask will be perfect instant reword treatment. It is also a first choice for patients who have excess vellus hair on the skin. This hair often causes a buildup of dirt and oils in the follicles, so removing the hair gives the patient healthier looking skin.

This type of exfoliation triggers cell regeneration, allowing skin care products to penetrate the skin in a more efficient manner. Dermaplaning pros is used to remove excess facial hair as well. Myth buster: That very fine hair on the face known as “vellus hairs” will not grow back thicker or darker. However, dermaplaning is not recommended for removing very dark, coarse hair from the face.

Dermaplaning is great for those with dry or rough skin textures. Dermaplaning pros is also great for the treatment of aging, mature skin that tends to develop a buildup of dead skin cells. Cellular turnover also slows down with age. Dermaplaning does what a skin “scrubbing” can’t do. Scrubbing can damage delicate facial skin. Dermaplaning brightens your skin, leaving it smooth and refreshed.

What are the Benefits of Dermaplaning?

There are several treatments on the cosmetic market used to resurface the face, but only Dermaplaning pros provides the following benefits:

    • It is non-surgical and non-invasive with no incisions
    • Although dermaplaning involves the use of a knife, it is a painless procedure that does not irritate the skin or draw blood
    • It requires no downtime, allowing patients to return to normal activities immediately
    • Dermaplaning subtly enhances your natural features and improves your skin without looking like you’ve “had work done.”
    • This treatment is completely safe, with no side effects or possible complications

Men and women who prefer a gentle, subtle exfoliation treatment are generally good candidates for dermaplaning.

It will be determined during your consultation with our medical team whether dermaplaning is right for you.

How Long Will My Results Last?

About Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique in which a trained practitioner uses a medical scalpel to precisely remove the outermost layers of your skin. While the procedure might sound intimidating, it is a safe, effective treatment option with virtually no risk of adverse effects. Dermaplaning takes as little as 30 minutes to complete and is not an uncomfortable process. The skin around your eyes, nose, and eyebrows is avoided. In addition to removing cells on your epidermis, dermaplaning also removes the fine, vellus hair known as “peach fuzz.” Those hairs can trap oil and dirt, worsening clogged pores and breakouts.
Dermaplaning is a great treatment option for men and women who have dry or roughly textured skin. It can also be good for those with mature skin, as dead skin cells tend to accumulate faster as you age. It is a great treatment for expectant or breastfeeding mothers who may not be able to pursue other aesthetic procedures. This treatment is not right for everyone, however. If any of these conditions apply, you may want to explore other treatment options:
  • Very oily skin
  • Active acne breakouts
  • Significant facial hair
The team at The Med Spa at Matthews Internal Medicine offer a wide range of aesthetics treatments using state-of-the-art tools and techniques. If dermaplaning isn’t right for you, your provider can guide you toward treatments that can better meet your needs.
Dermaplaning reveals a layer of fresh, healthy skin cells, and incorporating other skin care treatments after dermaplaning can boost the effects. For example, a light chemical peel can deliver even more impressive results when applied immediately after dermaplaning. Discuss your skin care history and treatment goals with your practitioner before moving forward with any treatment option. Many aesthetics treatments can be combined or performed in a certain order to facilitate optimal results and give you a greater value for your investment. The team at ReviveMD Center is committed to educating you on the pros and cons of various treatment options. Enabling you to make an informed decision about your skin care is a top priority, and is among the reasons why so many men and women in the greater Charlotte, North Carolina, area wouldn’t consider going elsewhere for their aesthetics needs.
