The Facts About Dermaplaning in Chicago

Are you wondering why your skin care products aren’t working as well as they should? Is your skin looking dull and uneven? Then give dermaplaning a try. This effective method of exfoliation is a popular treatment and has become a well-known procedure in Glenview, IL and elsewhere. Dermaplaning improves the look of your complexion and keeps the pores from getting clogged.

Dermaplaning works well on all skin types. People who have dull or dry skin, fine lines, or sun damage tend to be great candidates for this procedure. Smoother and brighter skin will result as skin tone is evened out and cell metabolism is stimulated, bringing new skin to the surface.

What are the Benefits?

This procedure is performed by a skilled professional who uses a special tool to remove dead surface skin cells. This also removes “peach fuzz.” This procedure allows for greater absorption of skin care products and smoother makeup application. Microscopic hair along with dead skin can build up and cause skin breakouts, and dermaplaning helps with this.

Other benefits include:

  • Simple treatment that stimulates cell turnover while exfoliating the skin and removing “peach fuzz”
  • Little to no downtime
  • Great for sensitive skin
  • Safe for pregnant women
  • Can be done prior to other treatments to enhance their results
  • Can be done on a regular basis
  • Improves makeup application and skin care results
  • Can lighten scars due to previous acne

Make Sure to Go to a Professional

It’s important to make an appointment with an experienced cosmetic professional, as this procedure is done with a special tool and should only be performed by a skilled expert.
