Dermaplaning

Try the amazing skin-refinishing treatment patients of Seaside Aesthetics adore! Dermaplaning can deliver beautiful results with minimal downtime.

What is Dermaplaning?

Exfoliation is a well-known skin care technique. You can perform it at home or at an office with a licensed aesthetician. This technique can help brighten, rejuvenate, and smoothen skin.

Dermaplaning is a particularly effective method of physical exfoliation that helps remove dead skin, fine hair, and dull or rough patches. Using a surgical scalpel tool, a licensed aesthetician or nurse practitioner can treat areas on your face, including the forehead, cheeks, and chin area. The procedure is increasing in popularity all over the country, with celebrities and beauty enthusiasts alike raving about the results of this non-invasive enhancement treatment.

What Are the Benefits of Dermaplaning?

Did you know the topmost layers of your skin – particularly in the face – are polluted with dead skin cells? Application of things like makeup, lotions, and certain soaps, plus the combination of oils, bacteria, and dirt from our hands or pillowcases, can impact the quality of your skin. This can cause acne, redness, fine lines, rough skin, and other blemishes to develop over time and distract from your overall appearance. Additional benefits of dermaplaning can include:

·      Removal of vellus hairs (aka peach fuzz or baby hair)

·      Exfoliates deeply to break through many layers of dirt and oil build-up

·      Smoother, brighter skin

·      Non-invasive, fast, and virtually-painless procedure

·      Helps prep the skin for another facial resurfacing treatment

The Dermaplaning Procedure

Dermaplaning is a powerful skin polishing treatment that uses a sterile medical tool and the expertise of an aesthetic nurse or cosmetic professional to help reduce dull or lackluster skin on the face. The procedure is performed in-house at our comfortable medical aesthetic spa in Marblehead and typically takes 20 to 30 minutes to complete. Patients generally do not experience any downtime following treatment and can see results almost immediately.

Before undergoing dermaplaning, patients should avoid direct contact with the sun for at least a week before and after treatment; if you get sunburnt, you may not be able to receive treatments and your skin will be more sensitive afterward. Your aesthetician may recommend discontinuing your at-home skin care routine in preparation for your dermaplaning, as well. Once the treatment is completed, you will see an improved glow and clear, smoother skin for up to a month.

Who Can Receive Dermaplaning Treatments?

Of course, dermaplaning is not for everyone. Patients with persistent acne, excessively oily skin, or thick facial hair may not be ideal for this particular treatment. However, it can be successful on just about any skin type to help regenerate cells so skin grows back healthier, smoother, and brighter. To determine whether a dermaplaning treatment is right for you, a skin consultation can be scheduled with the experts at Seaside Aesthetics.

What is the Average Cost of Dermaplaning Treatments?

Dermaplaning can be performed as a standalone treatment or as an add-on to another facial procedure. We start our dermaplaning procedure at $75 for add on services.
