30 Sep Reveal Your Vibrant Skin with Dermaplaning and Microdermabrasion
Dermaplaning and microdermabrasion are two of the most popular cosmetic procedures for skin rejuvenation. They’re both non-invasive and non-chemical facial procedures that gently exfoliate the epidermis to reveal a more youthful, vibrant skin. Aestheticians normally use dermaplaning and microdermabrasion for similar purposes like improving skin texture and reducing wrinkles. But while both procedures offer similar results, they actually differ in many ways. In this article, we’re giving you a breakdown of that.
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is a simple and safe procedure for exfoliating the surface of your skin to make it smoother and more even-toned. It uses a surgical scalpel to scrape or shave away the outer layer of the skin and stimulate the production of collagen, a protein responsible for your skin’s elasticity.
Dermaplaning also removes peach fuzz or vellus hair from the skin so there’s less material for dirt and oil to cling to and stick on your skin’s surface. This prevents your pores from getting clogged and from getting acne.
Ideal candidates for dermaplaning are healthy individuals who want to treat or reduce the following skin issues:
- peach fuzz
- sunspots
- pockmarks and deep scars
- milia and comedones
- wrinkles and fine lines
- Rejuvenated appearance
- Brighter complexion
- Diminished wrinkles and fine lines
- Enhances transdermal drug delivery
- Reduced appearance of acne scars, enlarged pores, and hyperpigmentation
