Performed by an esthetician, nurse, or trained medical assistant, dermaplaning is a very effective form of exfoliating the skin using a surgical scalpel to gently scrape off the top layer of dead skin cells. When done in conjunction with a chemical peel, this treatment can be very effective in the promotion of new collagen and a smoother more vibrant complexion.
For a week or so following your treatments, your skin will be extremely sensitive and extreme caution should be made to protect your skin from sun damage.
