About

Dermaplaning
is a form of manual exfoliation similar in theory to microdermabrasion
but without the use of suction or abrasive crystals. An esthetician
grade, sterile blade is stroked along the skin at an angle to fently
“shave off” dead skin cells from the epidermis. Dermaplaning also
temporarily removes the fine vellus hair of the face, leaving a very
smooth surface, ideal facial before special occasion as the skin is
perfectly prepared for make up (1 day after the treatment).

Due
to contours of the face, certain areas of the face (such as eyelids and
nose) are not treatable using this method. If dermaplaning is not
contraindicated, maximum results are obtained by participating in a
series of treatments (not more often than every 2 weeks) plus following
a home care regimen. You may experience redness, dryness, or even some
peeling between sessions.

Dermaplaning
may cause minor superficial abrasions which may not appear until a day
or two following your treatment. If this should occur, please contact me
so that I can advice what to do.Clients receive noticeable, satisfactory
to above average results with a series of treatments and a commitment to
a daily skin care regimen. However, the outcome cannot be guaranteed as
maximum results are hight dependent on age, cumulative sun exposure,
health, lifestyle, genetic traits, general skin condition, and
willingness to follow recommended protocols.

Exercise
or other activity causing sweating should be avoided until all redness
has subsided. Tanning beds should never be used. SPF 30+ MUST be applied
daily to the treated area for a minimum of two weeks. Twice daily
cleanse the treated area with post-treatment cleanser, followed by a
serum or treatment cream and follow with SPF 30+
sunscreen.
