Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning, Dermablading or Epidermal Leveling are names for the same quick, noninvasive, painless procedure in which surface dead skin cells are manually scraped away. There is no recovery time involved with this procedure.

    Dermaplaning increases cellular turnover while smoothing and softening the surface of the skin. As an added bonus, it removes the fine vellus (fuzz) hair on the face, which can trap oil and dirt, leading to other skin problems. Once the fine hair, dirt, oil and dead skins cells are scraped away, skin products and treatments are more effective because they penetrate more deeply.

All skin types can benefit from this procedure, even the most sensitive where microdermabrasion cannot be performed.

    Results are immediately visible, and the skin is left looking smooth, supple and fresh. Optimally, dermaplanning can be done every four weeks, thereby allowing the skin to complete its normal skin rejuvenation cycle in between sessions.

Dermaplaning is performed exclusively by experienced, licensed estheticians at Bluefern Spa in Johns Creek and Suwanee.

Is Dermaplaning right for me?

If you have dull, dry, dehydrated and/or congested skin it is often because you have a surface barrier of dead cells that are not allowing topical products to penetrate. At the same time, impurities are trapped and underlying new cells are unable to surface. Once your skin is dermaplaned, it accelerates and aids in the sloughing off of the dead skin, that barrier is removed and the skin begins to respond to the skin products being used. Also, it is able to expel the impurities from within creating a healthier and revitalized skin. Dermaplaning may also be used to reduce the appearance of acne scars: by skimming away the surrounding skin, the noticeable difference between the area levels is evened out.

How many treatments do I need?

Treatments only take about 45 minutes and can be scheduled about 2-4 weeks apart.

Won’t the hairs on the face grow back thicker?

Not at all. The hair on the face is called vellous hairs and it is physiologically impossible to grow back thicker.

    There are two types of hair that grow on our bodies: Vellous (tiny translucent blonde hair) and Terminal (thicker hair that grows under the arms, pubic area, eye brows, mustache and beard for men and legs). Vellous hair when cut or removed will grow back the same.

Contraindications:

The only contraindications to dermaplaning include an allergy to nickel, numerous raised lesions on the skin and inflamed acne.
