DERMAPLANING: Do’s and Don’ts.
Hello ladies! Today, let's talk about one of my favorite beauty treatments - dermaplaning. Dermaplaning is a skin treatment that involves removing the top layer of dead skin cells and peach fuzz using a sterile surgical scalpel. It leaves your skin feeling soft, smooth, and glowing. However, as with any beauty treatment, there are some dos and don'ts that you should keep in mind to get the best results. Here are some of them:
DO: Choose a reputable esthetician
When it comes to dermaplaning, it's important to choose an esthetician who is experienced and reputable. They should have the necessary training and certifications to perform the treatment safely and effectively. Make sure to do your research and read reviews before booking your appointment.
DON'T: Attempt to dermaplane at home
Dermaplaning is not a treatment that you should attempt to do at home. It involves using a sharp scalpel and should only be done by a trained professional. Trying to do it yourself can lead to injury, scarring, or uneven results.
DO: Prepare your skin before the treatment
To get the best results from dermaplaning, you should prepare your skin beforehand. Make sure to cleanse your face thoroughly and avoid using any exfoliating products or retinoids for at least 24 hours before your appointment.
DON'T: Wear makeup to your appointment
It's important to come to your dermaplaning appointment with a clean face. Avoid wearing any makeup or skincare products, as they can interfere with the treatment and make it less effective.
DO: Moisturize and protect your skin after the treatment
After dermaplaning, your skin will be more sensitive to the sun and other environmental factors. Make sure to apply a moisturizer with SPF to protect your skin from UV damage. You should also avoid using any harsh skincare products for at least 24 hours after the treatment.
DON'T: Pick at your skin or use any harsh scrubs
While it can be tempting to pick at your skin after dermaplaning, it's important to resist the urge. Your skin will be more sensitive than usual, and picking at it can lead to irritation, redness, or even scarring. You should also avoid using any harsh scrubs or exfoliating products for at least a week after the treatment.
In conclusion, dermaplaning can be an excellent way to give your skin a fresh, glowing look. Just remember to choose a reputable esthetician, prepare your skin beforehand, and take care of it properly afterward. With these dos and don'ts in mind, you'll be sure to get the best results from your dermaplaning treatment. Happy glowing, ladies!
