Removing dead surface skin cells to reveal a smoother and brighter face is incredibly satisfying.
The squeaky-clean feeling after a good exfoliation, whether it be chemical or otherwise, is something we all need every once in a while.
But not all superficial skin exfoliations are created equal, with one method being particularly worthy of some interrogation.
Ever heard of dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is manual exfoliation, which means it requires a physical process rather than a chemical one.
Basically, a trained aesthetician runs a fine scalpel blade closely over the surface of the entire face for something resembling a super-close “shave”.
This helps de-fuzz your face – you know, those fine vellus hairs known as “peach fuzz” or “peach fluff”.
The problem is because the blade is handheld, a person controls the treatment’s depth and evenness, so there’s room for human error.
This is not like another type of superficial exfoliation, called microdermabrasion. With carefully selected vacuum settings on a handheld device, your treatment depths aren’t entirely dependent on who’s giving you the therapy.
Another con with dermaplaning is that you have to be aware of active skin conditions.
For example, for someone who suffers from acne or rosacea, superficial chemical peels are much safer and hard-working, able to tighten your skin with ingredients like DMAE, too.
At Skin Renewal, dermaplaning isn’t on offer, because at the end of the day, they are committed to long-term, holistic treatments and not just a superficial result.
If you are ready to go beyond the quick fixes and find the most effective sustainable solution for your skin’s needs, it is advised to get in touch with the skilled Skin Renewal team.
With them, you can reap all the advantages of superficial exfoliation with a more thorough skin treatment.
This is your push to get moving and boost your facial health in the best way possible, making the benefits last even longer.
