Dermaplaning at MG Makeovers
Dermaplaning

Welcome to the radiant world of dermaplaning, a transformative beauty treatment that's taking the skincare industry by storm. At MG Makeovers, we've mastered the art of dermaplaning, providing you with an exceptional path to reveal your smoothest, most luminous complexion yet.

What is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a gentle, non-invasive exfoliating treatment performed by skilled aestheticians. It involves the use of a sterile, surgical scalpel to carefully remove the outermost layer of dead skin along with fine vellus hair (peach fuzz). This process not only smooths and refines the skin texture but also enhances the skin's ability to absorb skincare products more effectively.


Why Choose Dermaplaning?

If you're yearning for a brighter, more youthful appearance, dermaplaning is your ally. Here's why it's a must-try:

1. Immediate Results: Unlike other treatments that require downtime, dermaplaning offers instant results, revealing a brighter and smoother complexion immediately after the procedure.

2. No Chemicals: Perfect for those who prefer a physical exfoliation method without the use of acids or enzymes.

3. Enhances Product Penetration: By removing dead skin barriers, skincare products penetrate deeper and work more effectively.

4. Makeup Application: Post-dermaplaning, makeup glides on seamlessly, giving you a flawless finish.

5. Suitable for Many: It’s safe for all skin types and ideal for pregnant or nursing women who are looking for a deep exfoliation method that’s free from chemicals.


The Dermaplaning Procedure at MG Makeovers

Our dermaplaning procedure is as meticulous as it is relaxing. Here's what you can expect:

1. Cleansing: Your journey begins with a thorough cleansing of your skin to remove any makeup and impurities.

2. Prepping: A prepping solution is applied to ensure a clean canvas and to help the blade glide smoothly.

3. Dermaplaning: Our expert aesthetician carefully skims the skin's surface, removing dead skin cells and peach fuzz.

4. Soothing: Post-exfoliation, your skin is treated with soothing serums and a nourishing mask to calm and hydrate.

5. Protection: We conclude with a layer of sunscreen to protect your fresh, new complexion from UV damage.


Difference

If you're referring to what sets dermaplaning apart as a skincare treatment, here are some differences between dermaplaning and other common skin treatments:

1. Method of Exfoliation:

- Dermaplaning uses a physical method to exfoliate the skin, where a scalpel gently shaves the skin's surface to remove dead cells and peach fuzz.

- Other treatments, like chemical peels, use acid solutions to dissolve dead skin cells.

2. Hair Removal:

- Dermaplaning removes fine vellus hairs (peach fuzz), which can trap dirt and oil.

- Most other exfoliating treatments do not remove hair.

3. Suitability for Sensitive Skin:

- Dermaplaning is often suitable for sensitive skin types that may not tolerate chemical exfoliation well.

- Chemical exfoliation and some mechanical methods can be too harsh for sensitive skin.

4. Immediate Visibility of Results:

- Dermaplaning provides immediate results with no downtime.

- Some treatments, like microdermabrasion or chemical peels, may cause temporary redness or require some downtime.

5. Effect on Skincare Absorption:

- By removing the outermost layer of dead skin, dermaplaning can enhance the penetration and effectiveness of skincare products.

- While other exfoliating treatments can also improve product absorption, dermaplaning is particularly effective because it removes the physical barrier of peach fuzz.

6. Frequency of Treatment:

- Dermaplaning is usually performed less frequently than other exfoliating treatments, typically every 3-4 weeks.

- Other exfoliation methods may be recommended more or less frequently, depending on the type and intensity of the treatment.

7. Use During Pregnancy:

- Dermaplaning is safe for pregnant or nursing women because it is a non-chemical treatment.

- Certain other skin treatments, especially those involving retinoids or high-strength salicylic acid, are not recommended during pregnancy.

In essence, dermaplaning offers a unique combination of exfoliation and hair removal that is gentle yet effective, making it a distinctive treatment in the beauty and skincare industry.


Aftercare and Maintenance

Aftercare and maintenance are crucial for maximizing the benefits of dermaplaning and maintaining the smooth, radiant results. Here are some aftercare tips and maintenance advice for post-dermaplaning care:


Aftercare Immediately Following Dermaplaning:

  1. Soothe the Skin: Apply a gentle, hydrating moisturizer or serum to soothe the skin immediately after the treatment.

  2. Sun Protection: Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher. The skin is more susceptible to sun damage right after exfoliation.

  3. Avoid Harsh Products: Stay away from using products containing acids, retinoids, or other exfoliants for a few days after dermaplaning to prevent irritation.

  4. Skip Makeup: It’s advisable to avoid wearing makeup for at least 24 hours to allow the skin to breathe and recover.

  5. Don’t Over-Exfoliate: Refrain from additional exfoliation, even with gentle products, to avoid over-exfoliating the freshly treated skin.

  6. Be Gentle: Use a soft touch when washing your face and avoid scrubbing the treated area.

Maintenance in the Weeks Following Dermaplaning:

  1. Stay Hydrated: Keep your skin hydrated with creams and serums suited for your skin type.

  2. Regular Moisturizing: Continue to use a gentle moisturizer to help maintain the skin’s barrier function and hydration levels.

  3. Continue Sun Protection: Daily use of sunscreen will help prevent hyperpigmentation and protect the new skin cells from UV damage.

  4. Avoid Direct Sun Exposure: Wear a hat or seek shade when outdoors to further protect your skin from sun damage.

  5. Follow Professional Advice: Stick to the skincare routine recommended by your skincare professional post-dermaplaning.

  6. Schedule Routine Sessions: To maintain the smooth and bright complexion, schedule regular dermaplaning sessions, typically every 3-4 weeks, as advised by your esthetician.
