Dermaplaning Specialist Serving South Riding, Aldie, VA

Dermaplaning is a painless treatment that is performed by a medical aesthetician to rejuvenate facial skin. There are several benefits to receiving a dermaplaning procedure, including:

• Reduction in excess facial hair
• Removal of the top layer of dead skin cells
• New skin cell growth
• Fresher, younger-looking skin
• Minimized fine lines, wrinkles, pores, acne scars and hyperpigmentation
• Less acne breakouts
• Smoother skin
• Quick, relaxing and non-invasive treatment

Depending on your skin’s history, skin type, and tone, dermaplaning can deliver many benefits that will help you reach your skin goals. Your service provider will work with you to find out your desired results and recommend the most effective treatment for your skin.

Dermaplaning is a solution for excess vellus hairs on the face, which are often referred to as peach fuzz. In addition to the delicate removal of vellus hairs, the medical aesthetician will exfoliate and hydrate the skin. Dermaplaning is a great treatment if you desire a smoother and brighter complexion.

To get the most out of the treatment, it is important to effectively prepare for the procedure. It is recommended to avoid exfoliating your skin for 72 hours before your treatment. It is also advised to avoid tanning or fake tanning on your face for up to a week before your dermaplaning appointment.

Dermaplaning has very little risk. In rare cases, you may have some minor side effects after your treatment. The side effects include redness or irritation on the face:

• Have an active acne outbreak
• Have an active cold sore outbreak
• Have psoriasis
• Have moles, skin tags, or skin growths
• Have skin burns from radiation therapy
• Have a skin rash on your face

The medical aesthetician will work with you to choose the right treatment plan to reach your skin goals. It is important to discuss your pre-existing skin conditions with your service provider.

As dermaplaning is a fast treatment, it is easy to add to your skin care regimen. It is recommended to have a dermaplaning procedure every couple of weeks or every month to see consistent results. The body replaces skin cells each month, so monthly treatments ensure a bright and smooth complexion.

Each person’s skin is different, so your aesthetician will consult you on how often you should receive treatments to achieve the best results. For most, multiple procedures are required to restore the health and brightness of the skin. Receiving treatment regularly will leave the most long-lasting and desirable results.

After your dermaplaning treatment, you will see the results very quickly. It is advised to use moisturizer to hydrate your skin in the days that follow your procedure. After your procedure, your skin may be slightly swollen, red, or tender. Though such side effects are very normal, it is advised to consult your service provider if they do not go away in one week following your treatment. The skin will look brighter immediately after your appointment, and you will notice that makeup and other cosmetic products will apply to the skin easier and smoother. Acne and acne scars will appear reduced, along with fine lines, wrinkles, and areas of hyperpigmentation.

Your smooth and youthful complexion will last for several weeks until the vellus hairs regrow on your face. However, even after all the hair has grown back, you will experience several long-lasting benefits such as:

• Fewer fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots
• Less acne and acne scarring
• Increased skin cell turnover
