Dermaplaning is the controlled scraping of the skin using a sterile, surgical blade held at a 45-degree angle for the removal of keratinized cells on the outer stratum corneum and fine vellous hair.
Frequently asked questions:
Is it safe?
It is extremely safe when performed by a professional trained therapist utilizing the Dermaplane tool.
Once the villous hair is removed, will it grow back thicker?
No, this is physiologically impossible. The soft, fine vellous hair will grow back slowly – usually in about 4 weeks.
Can Dermaplaning cause the skin to bleed?
Yes, excessive scraping, nicks and cuts can cause bleeding. That is why it is important to have a professional therapist using the correct tool performs this treatment on clients.
What areas can be treated?
Dermaplaning is performed only on the face. You should not do dermaplane on the eyelids, lower parts of neck or chest.
How often can the treatment be done?
Dermaplaning can be performed every 4-6 weeks.
Can Dermaplaning be performed with a chemical peel?
Yes. Dermaplaning can be an excellent preparation before a chemical peel.
Who can be treated?
All skin types can benefit.
Who cannot be treated?
- Clients with active acne should not be treated.
- Clients with bleeding disorders.
- Clients with diabetes not under control by diet or medication.
- Clients undergoing cancer treatments.
