Dermaplaning is a safe and effective way of exfoliating dead skin cells with a scalpel in order to reveal smooth, glowing, and more youthful-looking skin. Dermaplaning in Austin and Round Rock also treats deep acne scars.

Men have the advantage of shaving to exfoliate their skin daily. Women, on the other hand, have to take extra steps to remove dead skin cells for healthier and glowing skin. Thankfully, the dermaplaning services offered at Devenir in the Austin, Texas area make it easy and convenient!

The bonus of dermaplaning is that the vellus or “peach fuzz” hair is also removed during this process. Removing the hair in this way does NOT change the type of hair (i.e. vellus hair will not turn into a whisker).

What Are the Benefits of Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning helps to remove the top layer of your skin safely and effectively. This treatment can also help reduce the appearance of acne scars, sun-damaged skin, and fine lines.

Dermaplaning is also a relatively quick procedure and typically takes about thirty minutes or so to do.

Is Dermaplaning Right for Me?

Dermaplaning is ideal for those looking for a non-invasive skin-rejuvenation treatment. It works for most skin types, except for those with acne-prone skin. If you don’t want costly laser skin resurfacing or irritating chemical peels, dermaplaning is the right option.

However, dermaplaning is not suitable for you if you have eczema, acne, sunburn, psoriasis, rosacea, or other inflammatory skin conditions. If you have an isotretinoin prescription, you will need to wait for six months before undergoing dermaplaning.

Your Dermaplaning Consultation

During your consultation at Devenir Aesthetics, we will examine your skin to see if you are fit for dermaplaning. We will talk to you about your cosmetic goals, which will help determine the size of the target area and how many treatments you will need. Tell us about your medical history, current medications, and skin conditions.

We will tell you about the details of the procedure, including how you can prepare for it. Don’t hesitate to ask questions about the procedure or express any worries about getting the treatment.

How Does Dermaplaning Work?

A topical anesthetic may be applied to your skin before your treatment. There is no need for a general anesthetic for this treatment.

The tool that is used for a dermaplaning treatment looks similar to a razor. One of our highly trained aestheticians will use a sterile blade and carefully move it at a 45-degree angle across your skin. This technique removes dead skin cells, peach fuzz, and other debris from your face, revealing smoother, younger-looking skin.

Dermaplaning Down Time and Results

There is no downtime after this type of exfoliating, and you will notice a better penetration of your products post-treatment, as well as a smoother application of makeup. You may experience some redness after dermaplaning; however, this minor side effect is completely normal and usually subsides within a couple of days.

You can typically see results a couple of days after this treatment; however, results from dermaplaning are not permanent. Results typically last for three to four weeks, and you may come in for another treatment after that time.

It is important to be extra careful about being in direct sunlight after your dermaplaning treatment. If you have to be outside, be sure to apply sunscreen with SPF in it, and wear protective clothing, like a hat, to ensure that your skin is shielded from the sun.

Dermaplaning Cost

Most insurance companies do not cover dermaplaning. To get an estimate of how much your dermaplaning treatment will cost, be sure to ask during your consultation or call our office and one of our highly trained staff members will be happy to give you an answer. Dermaplaning’s price will depend on the size of the treatment area and how many sessions you will need.
