Benefits of Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning offers several beauty benefits, making it a go-to treatment for those seeking flawless skin:
- Instant Skin Rejuvenation: One of the most remarkable aspects of dermaplaning is its ability to deliver immediate results. After one session, you’ll notice that your skin looks fresher, smoother, and more radiant. This quick transformation is perfect for special occasions or when you want to look your best.
- Improved Product Absorption: With the removal of the dead skin cell barrier, your skincare products can penetrate deeper into the skin. This means your serums and moisturizers can work more effectively, leading to better hydration and overall skin health.
- Smoother Makeup Application: Dermaplaning creates a smooth canvas for makeup application. Without vellus hair and dead skin cells, your foundation glides on flawlessly, giving you that airbrushed finish.
- Reduction in Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Regular dermaplaning sessions can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. By exfoliating and stimulating collagen production, it contributes to a more youthful complexion.
- Say Goodbye to Acne Scarring: Dermaplaning can also improve the appearance of acne scars. By removing the top layer of damaged skin, it helps diminish the visibility of scars, giving you smoother and clearer skin.
How Does Dermaplaning Work?
Cleansing
The process begins with a thorough cleansing of the face. This step removes any makeup, dirt, or oil, ensuring the skin is clean and ready for the procedure.
Prepping
After cleansing, our Rochester skincare professional will apply a gentle solution to the skin. This solution helps disinfect and prepare the hair and skin cells for dermaplaning.
The Dermaplaning Process
During the actual dermaplaning treatment, our provider will use a sterile surgical scalpel. They’ll hold the scalpel at a specific angle, typically around 45 degrees, and we’ll carefully glide it across the skin’s surface. This technique allows them to effectively and gently scrape away the top layer of the epidermis, which consists of dead skin cells, debris, and vellus hair.
Instant Exfoliation
The primary goal of dermaplaning is exfoliation. By removing the outermost layer of dead skin and dead cells below, this treatment immediately reveals fresher, smoother skin underneath. This quick transformation gives the complexion a rejuvenated and radiant appearance.
Enhanced Product Absorption
With the barrier of dead skin cells and peach fuzz removed, the skin becomes more receptive to skincare products. This means that serums, moisturizers, and other topical treatments can penetrate more effectively, maximizing their benefits.
Hydration
Following the dermaplaning treatment, the skin is often treated with hydrating serums and moisturizers. This helps replenish moisture and nutrients, further enhancing the skin’s health and appearance.
How Much Does Dermaplaning Cost?
The cost of a dermaplaning treatment can vary depending on several factors, but you can expect to pay somewhere in the range of $75 to $250 per session. Expect your total treatment cost to fluctuate based on:
- Location: Prices tend to be higher in big cities and areas with a high cost of living.
- Package deals: Some providers may offer discounts for purchasing multiple treatments at once.
- Add-on services: If you get a dermaplaning treatment combined with a facial or chemical peel, the cost will be higher.
