Dermaplaning New York, NY

What is a dermaplaning?

A dermaplaning facial is a type of skin treatment in which a blade is used in order to remove the layers of dead skin cells as well as hair on the surface of the face. By essentially shaving away the unwanted cells and hair, a professional esthetician like Lena is able to help clients to experience more youthful and radiant skin.

Also known as blading or microplaning, a dermaplane facial is designed to make the skin smoother and brighter. In fact, there are many individuals who remark on how amazing their skin looks and feels immediately after treatment. Along with removing dead skin, hair, and peach fuzz, this treatment is considered one of the best facials for acne as it can eliminate scarring as well as pockmarks caused by blemishes.

Along with this, the dermaplane procedure can also help address:

• Dull skin

• Dry skin

• Fine lines and wrinkles

• Sun-damaged skin

In short, this skin care treatment truly has an extensive and impressive list of benefits.

What happens during a dermaplaning facial?

At Lena's skin care clinic in Manhattan, Lena provides clients with an amazing, luxury experience for each of her therapies, and her dermaplane facial is no exception.

Upon arrival, Lena will have you lay down on a table in a clean, comfortable, and relaxing room. A numbing spray will typically be administered to make the experience even more soothing for you. Once you have had the opportunity to relax and ask any of your questions, Lena will begin.

The process itself is carried out utilizing a manual or electronic tool that is used to scrape at the skin at an angle. Typically lasting between 20-30 minutes, this method is used to gently, yet effectively exfoliate the skin and remove unwanted hair and dead skin. The therapy itself is painless, although some individuals do report feeling a slight tingling sensation.

Once the face has been treated, Lena will apply soothing aloe to your skin as well as sunscreen, as your skin is particularly sensitive to light and irritation following this particular form of acne skin care. With that being said, there is no downtime following treatment. While some redness is common, you can go right back to your daily activities with no issues at all.

As mentioned, many report immediate results, but it often does take a few days to appreciate all that this facial has to offer. It's important to remember that even the best skin care doesn't offer permanent results. In the case of this procedure, results will typically fade within three weeks after each session.

As with microdermabrasion and similar techniques, it's important to take great care when going out in the sun after treatment. Since your dead skin cells are gone and your underlying skin is exposed, it's imperative to use protective sunscreen so as to avoid pigment blotches and sun damage.

What are the benefits of this treatment?

As a safe, effective, and non-invasive therapy, this treatment serves to stimulate the growth of fresh skin cells while eliminating dead skin that might otherwise cause uneveness and blemishes. One of the best parts about the treament is its almost immediate results. Similar to a chemical peel in terms of its efficacy, this therapy requires no downtime and is accompanied by virtually no side effects at all. It's amazing how much smoother your skin will feel right away!

There are a myriad of benefits to choosing this therapy over a simple Guinot face wax or other, more invasive treatment. For one, there are no chemicals involved in the procedure, meaning that you can expect minimal irritation. Additionally, because your skin will be significantly smoother, concealer and makeup will be considerably more effective and easier to apply.

Only taking about 30 minutes to complete, this therapy allows Lena to be precise in her movements, ensuring that she is able to target those areas that require attention. Not to mention, the small blade promotes exfoliation that is incredibly valuable to not only removing trapped dirt and oil, but also brightening and rejuvenating the skin.
