Smooth skin shouldn’t be a struggle, but unfortunately, many women (and men) just can’t achieve the glowy, fresh look they want. Our Plano aesthetics experts make smooth skin easier at RX MD Solutions in Plano, TX. Dermaplaning is one of our go-to smooth skin solutions. It’s a simple yet powerful way to remove peach fuzz and dead skin, leaving your skin soft and refreshed. Let’s explore the magic of dermaplaning and why it might be the perfect treatment for you.
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a noninvasive treatment that gently shaves away the outermost layers of skin using a sharp surgical blade. Removing those dead skin cells and fine vellus hairs (aka “peach fuzz”) reveal the smooth, fresh new skin below.
The Benefits of Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning benefits aren’t limited to removing peach fuzz and old skin. Some of the reasons our patients love this skin-reviving treatment are:
- Improved skin product absorption: Dermaplaning allows skin care products to penetrate deeper beneath the skin, where they’re most effective.
- Flawless makeup application: With peach fuzz and dead skin cells gone, makeup glides on more easily and smoothly.
- Reduced fine lines: Old skin cell buildup can emphasize fine lines and wrinkles, making you look older than you feel. Dermaplaning whisks away those old cells while promoting new skin cell growth, and both things work together to reduce fine lines.
And don’t worry – despite common myths, the hair removed during dermaplaning doesn’t grow back thicker or darker. It grows back the same as before, but your skin will look and feel smoother.
Getting the Best Dermaplaning Results
Before your dermaplaning appointment, we recommend avoiding excessive sun exposure. You can’t have dermaplaning when you’re sunburned. Additionally, we strongly recommend avoiding waxing, topical skin acids like AHA and BHA acids, retinol, and Accutane® for a minimum of several months before dermaplaning. If you’d like to start dermaplaning, just let us know, and we can help you plan your skin care to get the best results.
We can do other treatments immediately after your dermaplaning session, depending on your appearance goals. For example, many patients opt for PCA chemical peels to amplify their results. Some patients also schedule dermal filler treatments after dermaplaning. Your fresh new skin is the ideal canvas for lip plumping, wrinkle-smoothing, or other uses of fillers.
After treatment, we apply a premium quality botanical cream containing a broad-spectrum SPF to protect your skin.
