Dermaplane

---

Dermaplaning is ideal for individuals who want to enhance their skin health and address specific skin issues. 

While a Dermaplane is safe and effective for most people, some individuals may not be ideal candidates due to factors that could increase risks or impact results. Medical clearance may be required for certain conditions. Please consult with your healthcare provider if you are unsure. Precautions to consider:

• Accutane - must wait at least 6 months.
• Compromised skin (dermatitis, sunburn, open wounds or sores, infection, severe rosacea or acne) in the treatment area.

You will see the results of a dermaplane treatment immediately after your session with skin visibly smoother and brighter right away.

The results of a dermaplane treatment typically last about 3 to 4 weeks. This timeline corresponds to your skin’s natural cell turnover cycle and the regrowth of peach fuzz (vellus hair). To maintain smooth, radiant skin, many clients schedule dermaplaning as part of their monthly skincare routine. 

There is typically no downtime following a dermaplane. Following the treatment, some individuals may experience slight redness or sensitivity, which usually disappears within a few hours.

A sterile, single-use, surgical blade is used to gently scrape away dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (commonly known as "peach fuzz") from the surface of the skin. The treatment typically targets the entire face, avoiding sensitive areas like the eyelids or lips. Other modalities may be included such as extractions and a custom mask. The process will rejuvenate and refresh your skin, promoting a brighter, more even complexion.

• Avoid direct sun exposure, including tanning beds, for at least 24 hours prior to treatment. Use SPF 30+ if sun exposure is unavoidable.
• Avoid skin irritants (products containing tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide or acne medications, vitamin C if strong or acidic, hydroquinone, AHAs/BHAs, astringents, depilatories, waxing, etc.) or any other exfoliating products in the treatment area for at least 3 days prior to treatment.
• Avoid strong blood thinners at least 3 days before your treatment as these may increase the risk of micro nicks or tiny abrasions. Consult with your healthcare provider before discontinuing.
• Wait at least 5–10 days after Botox or filler before receiving a Dermaplane.

• Most people can return to their normal activities immediately, however, strenuous exercise, sweating, excessive heat, swimming, and sauna use should be limited for at least 24 hours.
• Avoid direct sun exposure, including tanning beds, for at least 48 hours following treatment. If sun exposure cannot be avoided, apply a broad spectrum (UVA/UVB) SPF 30+ to treatment area.
• Avoid skin irritants (products containing tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide or acne medications, vitamin C if strong or acidic, hydroquinone, AHAs, BHAs, astringents, depilatories, waxing, etc.) or any other exfoliating products in the treatment area for at least 24-72  hours.
• You may apply makeup immediately post treatment as long as skin integrity has not been compromised.
