What is Dermaplaning and How Can it Rejuvenate My Skin?

There are so many different skin care treatments that are currently available to help individuals to improve the condition of their skin. One of these treatments is called dermaplaning. It is a treatment that is becoming more and more popular because it is helping individuals deal with specific skin problems or it can be used to just help individuals maintain blemish-free skin.

You may be wondering what exactly dermaplaning is. The explanation is very simple. This is a treatment that is used to exfoliate your skin. However, it is not like a chemical peel that uses chemicals to dissolve the top layer of your skin. And it is not like microdermabrasion either. Instead, a surgical scalpel is used to very gently remove the top layer of the skin.

At first, the idea of having a surgical scalpel run across your face by someone else may sound a little bit frightening. However, you do not have to worry. This is done in an extremely gentle matter in order to improve the condition of your skin. The question that you may be asking is, how can dermaplaning actually rejuvenate my skin?

Dermaplaning can rejuvenate your skin in the same way that chemicals rejuvenate your skin or in the same way that microdermabrasion rejuvenates the skin. It’s all about exfoliation. When the top layers of the skin are removed by these exfoliation methods, the healthy skin underneath these dead layers is revealed. Not only are the healthier layers revealed, but your body also starts to produce healthy substances that will make your skin look its best. It encourages your skin to produce healthier cells in a quicker manner. All of these things contribute to skin that is rejuvenated and healthy-looking.

Dermaplaning offers some benefits that are simply not available with other exfoliation methods. For example, it is safe for individuals who are not able to use strong chemicals to treat their skin. For example, if your skin is extremely sensitive or perhaps you take medication or are pregnant, you would not likely qualify for a chemical peel. However, you can still receive the benefits that come from exfoliating the skin with dermaplaning.

Another benefit that you receive with this form of exfoliation is that it actually removes hair and peach fuzz from your face. This is something that is especially great for women who wear makeup and want to have smooth skin and makeup that applies in an even way. Don’t worry about the hair growing back darker or thicker; it will not do this.
