DERMAPLANING PROCEDURE

What to Expect

The process begins with your provider cleaning and drying your face thoroughly to ensure optimal results. Next, a sterile surgical scalpel is used to delicately glide across your skin, removing dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. This part of the treatment is often described as soothing and completely painless, typically lasting around 30 minutes.

- Post-Treatment Care -

After the procedure, your skin will feel immediately soft and look visibly brighter. While there is usually no downtime, you may experience slight redness for a short period, which should subside quickly. Apply a gentle moisturizer, avoid prolonged sun exposure, and use a high SPF sunscreen to protect your fresh skin. Avoid using any harsh exfoliants or active skincare ingredients for a few days to allow your skin to adjust.
