Dermaplaning is a painless, non-invasive procedure that involves manual scraping of the surface dead skin cells. As a result, there is an increase in the cellular turnover, stimulating underlying skin cells to produce new cells that are healthier and more youthful. The procedure itself smoothens and softens the skin, and the results are visible instantly. This manual exfoliation of the skin tricks the body into thinking it has an injury stimulating the healing mechanism, immediately producing healthier, plump skin cells. As an added advantage, Dermaplaning removes the fine hair on the face also known as “peach fuzz which would otherwise trap oil and dirt which leading to acne and pigmentation. Once all the dirt, oil and dead skin cells have been removed, facial products and treatments are able to penetrate more easily and more evenly, thus, making them much more effective.
