Looking to enhance your skincare routine? Professional dermaplaning is a great way to boost the effectiveness of serums, moisturizers, and other treatments.
You can invest in the most expensive serums on the market, but they won’t work if they’re just sitting on the surface of your skin. Dermaplaning provides deep facial exfoliation, helping your best products penetrate more deeply and work more effectively.
At Glow That Face Up, we offer professional dermaplaning and skin resurfacing, including dermplane facials. Contact us today to learn more or book an appointment now.
How to Get More Out of Your Skincare Routine with Dermaplaning
For many people, the main barrier preventing a lit-from-within glow isn’t a product’s effectiveness. Instead, it’s the layer of dead skin cells and peach fuzz, which block it from being absorbed.
Dermaplaning can act as a delivery-booster, exfoliating your skin so that the product can get into the deeper layers and create real change.
Dermplaning can enhance your skincare routine in several ways:
Removing Dead Skin Cells
The outermost layer of your skin is called the stratum corneum, and it’s made up of dead skin cells. Most cells usually shed naturally throughout the day, but many can get stuck on the surface of your skin.
Once stuck, they act like a dry, porous sponge, absorbing products before they have the ability to reach your living skin cells.
With dermplaning, a medical-grade scalpel is used to gently exfoliate these cells, removing the physical roadblock. This makes it easier for your skin to absorb and benefit from the active ingredients in serums, such as Vitamin C or retinol.
Removing Peach Fuzz
Vellus hair, known as peach fuzz, can trap oil and dirt. It can also trap skincare products, preventing them from making contact to the skin’s surface. Oil-based products and thick moisturizers, in particular, tend to sit in the hair follicles rather than sinking into the pores.
By removing this hair, dermplaning creates a completely smooth, unobstructed surface. Products can glide on more easily, giving you a smoother texture and more efficient application.
Optimizing Ingredient Effectiveness
The effectiveness of certain high-performance ingredients depends on the thickness of the skin. For example, ingredients like hyaluronic acid pull moisture into the skin, while peptides encourage collagen production. Both of these ingredients have specific molecular weights, which struggle to pass through a thick, congested surface.
Dermaplaning temporarily increases your skin’s permeability, so you can use less product to achieve the same results.
Enhancing Micro-Circulation
The physical act of professional dermaplaning stimulates your skin’s internal processes. The gentle pressure and motion of the treatment increases blood flow to the surface of your face. This microcirculation brings fresh oxygen and nutrients to your skin cells.
When combined with the increased product absorption, this increased circulation helps your skin utilize the ingredients more effectively. This creates the signature post-dermaplane glow, which can last for weeks.
