The Advantages of Dermaplaning for Smooth Skin in Arnprior & Ottawa

In the quest for flawless skin, it’s essential to choose effective and safe treatments. At Faces DermaMedical, we understand the desire for smooth, radiant skin, which is why we offer dermaplaning—a specialized skin exfoliation procedure designed to remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. With minimal risks and outstanding benefits, our dermaplaning service stands out as a superior choice for achieving a rejuvenated and radiant appearance.


What is Dermaplaning?


Dermaplaning is a non-invasive skin exfoliation procedure that involves the use of a sterile surgical scalpel to gently scrape off the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, commonly referred to as peach fuzz. This treatment is primarily performed on the face but can be applied to other body areas as well. With its ability to enhance skin texture and appearance, dermaplaning is suitable for most skin types, excluding those with active acne or extremely sensitive skin.


The Benefits of Dermaplaning


The advantages of dermaplaning are extensive, making it a popular choice among our clients in Arnprior and Ottawa. Here are some of the key benefits you can expect:


- Smoother Skin: By removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells and fine hair, dermaplaning leaves your skin incredibly smooth and soft to the touch.


- Brighter Complexion: The exfoliation process helps to reveal a brighter and more even complexion, reducing the appearance of dull and lifeless skin.



- Enhanced Product Absorption: With the removal of dead skin cells, your skincare products can penetrate deeper and more effectively, maximizing their benefits.


- Immediate Results: Unlike some treatments that take time to show results, dermaplaning provides immediate improvements in skin texture and appearance.


- Improved Makeup Application: Smoother skin allows for better makeup application, giving you a flawless finish and enhancing your overall look.


The Dermaplaning Process at Faces DermaMedical


Our dermaplaning process begins with a thorough consultation to assess your skin type and discuss your skincare goals. During the treatment, one of our trained professionals will use a sterile surgical scalpel to gently scrape off the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. Each session lasts between 45-60 minutes, ensuring a precise and effective exfoliation.


Safety and Professionalism


At Faces DermaMedical, your safety and satisfaction are our top priorities. Our trained professionals follow strict sterilization protocols, presenting the sterile scalpel in front of the client before use and discarding it accordingly after the procedure. This meticulous attention to detail minimizes any risks such as cuts, infection, or irritation, ensuring that you receive the highest standard of care.


Aftercare Tips for Optimal Results


To maintain the benefits of your dermaplaning treatment, proper aftercare is essential. Here are some aftercare tips to follow:


- Avoid Sun Exposure: Your skin will be more sensitive after the treatment, so it’s crucial to avoid direct sun exposure and wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.


- Use Gentle Skincare Products:: Opt for gentle, hydrating skincare products to soothe your skin and enhance the healing process. Avoid using harsh exfoliants or active ingredients like retinoids for at least a week post-treatment.


- Keep Your Skin Moisturized: Hydrated skin heals faster and maintains the smooth, glowing results of dermaplaning. Use a high-quality moisturizer to keep your skin soft and supple.
