Get Your Holiday Glow Going with a Dermaplane Facial

For those seeking a noninvasive treatment that improves both the look and feel of the skin, dermaplaning is hard to beat. This popular medical aesthetics treatment brings many people to D’Allure Medspa in Dallas, Texas, and the results prompt many clients to bring their friends and loved ones in so they can experience this exciting treatment for themselves. 

Here’s how dermaplaning works

Let’s begin by discussing what a dermaplaning facial is and how it works. Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique that removes the outermost layers of dead skin with a special blade. It delivers a powerful exfoliation result in just one visit, with no damage to your skin. 

Your dermaplaning facial begins with a discussion of your skin health and treatment goals. Your practitioner examines your skin to ensure that you’re a good candidate for dermaplaning. People with active acne, eczema, cold sores, psoriasis, or certain types of rash may be better suited to another treatment option. 

During your facial, your practitioner glides a special, sterile treatment blade across your skin, maintaining a consistent angle and pressure. The blade removes dead skin cells, impurities, and the fine hair that everyone has on their facial skin. 

Some dermaplaning devices use a moving blade, while others rely on a stationary blade. After this step, a customized chemical exfoliant is applied for an even deeper exfoliating result. If you need extractions, we handle them first, then apply a customized serum and mask to nourish and hydrate your skin. 

Here’s what a dermaplaning facial can treat

Dermaplaning is a great fit for a number of different skin conditions. Some of the issues that respond well to this type of treatment include:

• Acne scarring
• Dull skin 
• Sun-damaged skin
• Irregularly textured skin
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Actinic keratosis (scaly patches of skin)

As an added benefit, dermaplaning removes all traces of facial hair, leaving your skin feeling unbelievably soft and smooth. 

Dermaplaning delivers instant results with no downtime

One of the biggest draws of a dermaplaning facial is the ability to achieve immediate results with no downtime. Because the treatment process is noninvasive, there is little risk of side effects. 

Some people report minimal redness and swelling after a dermaplaning facial, but it doesn’t take long for your skin to adjust. For most, a healthy glow is the most noticeable change in the hours after treatment, along with enhanced softness. 

You can return to your normal activities immediately after your dermaplaning facial. There’s no need for any special care, but it’s a good idea to avoid harsh exfoliating products for a few days after your visit. Protecting your skin from sun exposure is also important, as always. 

Dermaplaning is a great alternative to light-based therapies or microneedling. If you are sensitive to chemical treatments, just let your practitioner know, and they can substitute a more gentle treatment for the chemical exfoliant portion of the process. 

If you’re ready to give dermaplaning a try, we’re ready to welcome you into the office. During your one-on-one skin consultation, we’ll assess your skin and discuss which treatments are best aligned with your goals. There’s never any pressure to choose one path over another, and we view our role as your guide to all things related to healthy, gorgeous skin.
