How Dermaplaning Enhances the Effectiveness of Skincare Products

Maintaining healthy, radiant skin is a top goal for many of our patients at Wagner Integrative Health, and we are proud to be the best choice for achieving optimal skincare wellness in the Green Bay area. Dermaplaning is one of the most effective and non-invasive skincare techniques that we offer, and our clients love it because of its immediate benefits. 

This cosmetic procedure involves gently skimming away the top layers of your facial skin with a device known as a dermatome. The dermatome exfoliates the skin, eliminates dead skin cells, and minimizes the appearance of fine wrinkles and minor scars. 

And if those benefits weren’t enough, one of the most sought-after advantages of dermaplaning facials is their ability to improve skincare product absorption! This maximizes your investment in your skincare products, both while you’re receiving a facial at Wagner Integrative Health and for several weeks at home, afterward. 

By integrating regular dermaplaning into your routine, you can experience profound improvements in skin texture and appearance. Whether you’re looking to rejuvenate dull skin or enhance the efficacy of your existing skincare regimen, dermaplaning offers an unparalleled solution!

What Is Dermaplaning and How Does It Work?

Dermaplaning is a gentle exfoliation method that removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hairs (“peach fuzz”) using a sterile surgical blade within the dermatome. This treatment refines your skin texture, leaving you with a soft, luminous complexion. 

By eliminating the outer layer of dead skin, dermaplaning allows skincare products to penetrate more effectively and also paves the way for smoother makeup application. It's a non-invasive procedure that typically takes about 30 minutes. At Wagner Integrative Health, this treatment can be customized as a standalone experience or complement other facial services, which is the most popular way our patients experience dermaplaning. 

The Science Behind Dermaplaning Facials and Product Absorption

By its simplest definition, dermaplaning facials smooth your skin’s surface. One of the top benefits of this procedure is that it enhances the absorption of skincare products. When the barrier of dead skin and hair is removed, the active ingredients in your serums and moisturizers can reach deeper layers of the skin and provide increased effectiveness. 

With improved product absorption, patients can enjoy enhanced hydration and reduced appearance of fine lines. Other concerns that dermaplaning can address include acne scars and hyper-pigmentation. This science-backed approach is why dermaplaning facials are a game-changer in skincare.

Top Benefits of Dermaplaning for Skincare Effectiveness

Our dermaplaning service offers many benefits for your skin health. Here are seven of the top advantages:

1. Exfoliation: Dermaplaning provides deep exfoliation by removing dead skin cells. This helps smooth and brighten your skin’s surface, giving it a radiant and refreshed appearance.

2. Peach Fuzz Removal: This technique effectively removes vellus hair (“peach fuzz”), which can trap dirt and oils. Removing it leaves the skin feeling smoother and looking clearer.

3. Prepares Skin for Serums and Creams: By eliminating the barrier of dead skin and peach fuzz, dermaplaning enhances the absorption of skincare products, allowing them to penetrate deeper and work more effectively.

4. Improved Makeup Application: Once your skin is smoother after dermaplaning, your makeup will go on more evenly, resulting in a flawless finish that looks natural and radiant.

5. Non-Invasive: Unlike some other skincare treatments, dermaplaning is non-invasive and generally painless, making it a suitable option for those seeking a quick and effective skin refresh without downtime.

6. Suitable for Most Skin Types: Dermaplaning is versatile and can be beneficial for almost all skin types, including those with sensitive skin, as it doesn’t involve harsh chemicals.

7. Immediate Results: Many patients notice an immediate improvement in their skin’s texture and appearance after a dermaplaning session.

By integrating dermaplaning into your skincare routine, you can enhance the effectiveness of your skincare products and enjoy smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin.

How Dermaplaning Complements Your Skincare Routine

Incorporating dermaplaning into your skincare routine can amplify your skin health and skincare results. Regular dermaplaning sessions, typically every 3-4 weeks, will keep your skin looking its best and ensure the continued effectiveness of your skincare products. 

Post-treatment, it’s essential to use a gentle cleanser and hydrating serum to lock in moisture and sustain the glowing effects. You can then apply your makeup as normal. 

After receiving a dermaplaning treatment, it’s also important to wear sunscreen, since your skin may be more sensitive to the sun’s UV rays. You should also avoid swimming in chlorinated water for at least 24 hours, since the chemicals might irritate your skin. 

With these guidelines, dermaplaning becomes an integral part of your holistic skincare!

Is Dermaplaning Right for You?

Dermaplaning is a versatile choice for people pursuing improved skin texture and tone. It’s ideal for anyone looking to enhance skincare product absorption, achieve brighter skin, or enjoy smoother makeup application. It can also be beneficial for individuals hoping to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and hyper-pigmentation. 

Also, dermaplaning suits most skin types. If you value a non-invasive method for revitalizing your appearance, dermaplaning could be the perfect addition to your skincare regimen, providing both immediate and long-term benefits for a radiant complexion.
