Dermaplane Procedure

Dermaplane is an intense exfoliation. The procedure is performed in our Caniglia MD Med Spa here in Scottsdale. A sharp instrument is held at a 45-degree angle to the skin, and stroked across the surface while holding the skin taut. This removes dead skin cells as well as the fine hairs on the skin’s surface. No cuts are made in the skin itself.

In general, the procedure is repeated about every three to four weeks. Repeating the procedure too often may cause the skin to become irritated, and it may be more likely to peel.

Dermaplane Benefits

Dermaplaning can offer benefits to people with many different skin types and conditions, including:

  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Reduces the appearance of recent acne scars
  • Promotes smoother and softer skin
  • Removes fine hairs on the face that may trap dirt and oil
  • Helps to enhance the effects of other aesthetic treatments (such as facials and peels), by promoting deeper penetration of the product into the skin

Dermaplane Recovery

There is usually little to no downtime associated with a Dermaplane treatment. In some cases, you may notice mild redness and peeling of your skin right after you have the procedure.

Dermaplane Risks

In general, there are very few risks of Dermaplaning, because the procedure takes place entirely on the surface of the skin. In some cases, people with a lot of oil on their skin may find that the procedure actually increases acne. This occurs because removal of the hair can sometimes encourage the growth of bacteria in the pores, leading to acne spots. Those with oily skin or current acne problems may not be good candidates for Dermaplaning.
