What It Treats
Skin Renewal
Dermaplaning's exfoliation removes the top layer of dead skin, revealing more youthful, radiant skin underneath.
Blemish Reduction
Your dermaplaning treatment reduces the appearance of blemishes, lines, and wrinkles.
Better Makeup
Because dermaplaning smooths skin and removes hair, makeup lays down more easily without clumps or excess.
Preparation
At Restoration MedSpa, our providers always take the time to review your concerns and goals before diving into treatment. Your expert provider will also examine the skin in your treatment area. If dermaplaning in Winston-Salem is the best choice to deliver results, we’ll schedule your session.
Treatment
Dermaplaning is a fast and effective procedure, usually requiring no more than 45 minutes to complete. After a soothing, thorough skin cleansing, your expert Restoration MedSpa provider will apply a toner to your skin, then drag a sterilized dermatome blade across the skin, removing the upper layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hairs.
Recovery
This 30-minute procedure requires zero downtime. Your skin in the treatment area may be slightly red after treatment, but that should diminish a few hours after your session. For 3 to 5 days, you should avoid direct sun exposure and extreme heat. For 7 days, refrain from scrubs, exfoliators, and exposure to chlorine. Always use SPF 30 sunscreen or higher.
No, dermaplaning isn’t the same as dermabrasion. Though they both exfoliate skin, dermaplaning uses a single, medical-grade dermatome blade—similar to a surgeon’s scalpel—to scrape away the dead skin and vellus hair. Dermabrasion uses a powered, high-speed rotating brush to basically “sand off” the dead skin.
No, dermaplaning doesn’t cause your hair to grow back thicker or darker. Your dermaplaning treatment, also known as dermablading in Winston-Salem, removes the vellus hair (“peach fuzz”) on the surface of the skin. This deeper “shave” of the hair doesn’t change the follicular structure, so it has no effect on future growth. Your facial hair will grow back at its natural rate, color, and texture, regardless of your treatment frequency.
Anyone who wants smoother skin without the appearance of vellus hair makes a good candidate for dermaplaning in Winston-Salem. However, some patients may not be well-suited for dermaplaning if active breakouts of acne are present or if the patient has cuts/skin trauma to the treatment area. Your provider will determine if your skin is suitable to undergo dermaplaning.
