Microdermabrasion, or dermaplaning, is a method of exfoliating the skin and reducing the size of pores to erase smaller facial lines. It is a gentle, non-invasive procedure that leaves most patients relaxed and calm. It is just as effective as other mainstream skin treatments, specifically with superficial imperfections. Microdermabrasion uses a diamond tipped wand, while dermaplaning uses a very fine blade to gently and precisely exfoliate the skin surface.
The skin cells on the face that are dead or problematic can cause a multitude of issues. These cells are typically located across the top of the skin. The non-invasive and painless procedure of microdermabrasion, or dermaplaning, simply involves scraping the dead skin away.
The delicate process removes a very thin layer, revealing clean, new skin without causing immediate damage. The result of the process is quicker skin cell turnover. The new outward layer of skin is smooth and soft, showing immediate results. The exfoliation also causes the body to increase healing functions, providing new, healthy skin cells and fast. Microdermabrasion, or dermaplaning, is useful for any skin color or pigmentation, because it uses the body’s natural ability to create new skin. Luckily, the procedure doesn’t trigger any hair follicles, meaning no vellus facial hair will grow back any darker, thicker or faster.
