Dermaplaning is a fantastic way to get smooth, dewy skin in a flash. Get rid of dead skin cells, peach fuzz, and anything else that might be marring your lovely complexion with a fast, pain-free, and easy dermaplaning session. At Beauty 2.0 Aesthetics in Port Moody, British Columbia, we specialize in this premier facial treatment and can help you get the complexion that you’ve always wanted.
What Is Dermaplaning?
This treatment combines deep exfoliation with dead skin removal for a luminous complexion that looks fantastic bare or under makeup. Using a small, non-invasive tool, your technician will remove dead skin and debris from your face, leaving it smooth and lovely. Most people find that their skin looks healthier, less wrinkled and lined, and much more even after just one session.
How Does It Work?
By moving the treatment tool across your face, the technician removes dead skin and also prompts collagen production. Collagen is the magic ingredient that makes your skin bouncy and dewy, and as we age, our skin produces a lot less of it. By stimulating collagen production, dermaplaning encourages the skin to generate new cells, which replace the old ones can give you a beautiful new complexion. Many people find that their skin is simply glowing after a treatment.
Since everyone’s skin is different, we encourage you to visit our office for a personalized consultation. We can put together a plan that will work for your skin type and meet your specific needs.
Why It’s So Effective
This treatment is effective because it removes debris from the skin using a very precise tool, getting right up to the dermis without breaking through. You can’t remove this layer using traditional exfoliation techniques, and it’s fairly dangerous to try dermaplaning at home because you can easily nick or damage your facial skin. The tools professionals use are surgical-grade instruments specifically designed to remove just the dead skin cells and peach fuzz and gently encourage the skin to produce more collagen.
Quick and Painfree
Most people don’t feel any pain during one of these treatment sessions. The process is actually quite comfortable, and the entire process only takes about 20 or 30 minutes. After you’re fully treated, your technician will put a soothing moisturizer on your skin. If you have any questions before, during, or after your treatment, please don’t hesitate to ask. Our goal is to make you as comfortable as possible, and we want you to fall in love with your new skin.
Dermaplaning vs Microdermabrasion
Although microdermabrasion is similar to this treatment, the two are not the same. Microdermabrasion uses a diamond-tipped tool that sucks and removes dead skin cells and impurities from your face instead of gently scraping it. Additionally, Microdermabrasion can be slightly more invasive, depending on what kind of technician you have doing the work. Although both of these treatments work to remove dead skin cells, eliminate peach fuzz, and stimulate collagen production, they are completely different in technique.
Some people find that Microdermabrasion can irritate their skin, as well, and it’s not suitable for all different types of skin. Dermaplaning is safe for everyone, and many people find it to be very comfortable.
Treatment Benefits
Since everyone is different, talk to our team about the benefits and results you can expect from this treatment. The vast majority of people who come in for one of these sessions are thrilled with the results and continue booking appointments for regular treatments.
Non-Invasive
The treatment tool will not cut into your skin at all. It merely glides across the top, removing dead skin cells and leaving you fresh-faced and clean. Other skin treatments that prompt collagen production can be irritating or invasive, but this one is simple, easy, and most people don’t experience any discomfort.
Deep Exfoliation
Get ready for the deepest and gentlest exfoliation of your life. This treatment completely cleanses the pores, removing any impurities and leaving your skin spotless and smooth. Your skin’s surface will be much better equipped to drink in skincare products and moisturizers and can look years younger and healthier after just one treatment.
No More Peach Fuzz
Even the lightest haired people get a little bit of peach fuzz from time to time. This treatment carefully removes peach fuzz, leaving your skin a flawless canvas that looks amazing bare or with a little bit of makeup, even in the brightest sunlight. As we age, our faces generate more fuzz, and this treatment can help combat it in a safe, effective, and totally pain-free way.
Better Skin Tone
This treatment can even out your skin texture, helping your face to look more toned and polished. It can even help minimize acne scars and light wrinkles. Additionally, this treatment can help you keep acne at bay by cleaning out your pores and removing all of the junk that may be on your skin.
Chemical-Free
Some treatments and therapies contain harmful chemicals that can irritate skin and cause allergic reactions in some cases. Dermaplaning is completely chemical-free and very safe. There is no downtime or recovery needed after one of these treatments.
Smaller Pores
This treatment can actually make your pores look a little bit smaller, giving your face a photo-finish look that is smooth and flawless. The reason for this is because it removes debris from your skin, allowing your pores to compress.
Best Candidates
Anyone can be a good candidate for this treatment. If you want to have brighter, more even-looking skin, it might just be right for you. Talk to our team about your objectives, and we work with you to find the best course of action. Some people benefit from a combination of different treatments, and some do best with a consistent treatment schedule. Everyone is different, and we give each and every one of our clients personalized treatment. Your complete satisfaction is our goal.
Keeping Skin Looking Great Between Treatments
You can keep your skin looking lovely and luminous between treatments by making sure that your skincare regimen protects and moisturizes your skin properly. Adopting a good skincare routine can also keep away blemishes and help to even out your skin tone.
Use SPF
SPF is your best beauty friend. Although the sun feels fantastic on our skin, it can do a lot of damage over time. Too much sun can cause wrinkles, fine lines, sun spots, or hyperpigmentation. Protect your face from the sun by using a strong SPF, preferably 35 or higher. You can also wear a sunhat and glasses to cover up parts of your face. Remember to reapply SPF regularly throughout the day, especially if you’re swimming. Some makeup, moisturizer, and primer also have SPF in them, although it’s never a bad idea to double up on the protection.
Moisturize
Dry skin tends to look older than its years and can magnify every tiny imperfection. Keep your skin moisturized and dewy by working in both day and night creams that deposit plenty of nutrients right into your skin. You don’t have to spend a fortune on moisturizers; drugstore products can be just as effective as expensive brands. The real key is to make sure that you moisturize consistently.
Remove Makeup
Leaving your makeup on when you go to bed is a great way to clog your pores and cause skin irritation, as well as ruin your pillowcases. Make sure that you remove all of your makeup before you go to sleep, and then apply your night cream to your fully cleansed face.
Follow these simple steps to keep your skin looking fresh and fabulous in between your treatments.
