The Dermaplaning Debate

The Dermaplaning Debate

Not All Superficial Exfoliations Are Equal 

Why do we all love to exfoliate our skin? Is it because of the squeaky-clean feeling that's left behind after scrub hits skin? Or perhaps the rewards that chemical exfoliants offer: removing dead surface skin cells and revealing a smoother and brighter, more glowy complexion? And all in an instant! With many in-clinic options to push the exfoliation joy (and benefits), we're sure by now you've heard about Dermaplaning. So why doesn't Skin Renewal offer it? We're always after the best superficial exfoliation, not just superficial results.

Dermaplaning for Beginners

Dermaplaning is manual exfoliation, meaning it's a physical rather than a chemical process. Using a fine scalpel blade, an aesthetician can run it along the surface of the entire face. Why the buzz about this super-close "shave"? It's able to de-fuzz your face: those fine vellus hair – known as "peach fuzz" or "peach fluff" – will be whisked off. But remember, because the blade is handheld, it controls the treatment's depth and evenness; so there's room for human error, unlike another type of superficial exfoliation: microdermabrasion. With carefully selected vacuum settings, your treatment depth isn't entirely dependent on the therapist. 

Dermaplaning and Your Skin

With dermaplaning, you should also be aware of any active skin conditions. Do you suffer from acne or rosacea? Superficial chemical peels are much safer. They also work hard; skin-tightening ingredients like DMAE deliver anti-ageing benefits, not just a quick fix with a trendy exfoliation treatment label.

Dermaplaning and Results 

At Skin Renewal, we're fully committed to holistic treatment and to tailoring your plan to deliver the best results for your skin. We get the appeal of an instant superficial exfoliation like Dermaplaning. But the results are, sadly, short-lived. Because we're about backing the long term, we will always recommend procedures that support skin health and condition. Working just on the skin's surface, Dermaplaning cannot treat anything like laser toning (with a superficial laser) would. Want to improve tone and texture and get your glow on?

Ready to go beyond the quick fix and find the best sustainable solution for your skin's needs? Experience the benefits of superficial exfoliation and thorough skin treatment to enhance facial health with the skilled Skin Renewal team. There are so many innovative options to help you achieve your goals.
