Here at Omni Therapy Rooms, I am delighted to bring you Dermaplane Facial, a new innovative skincare treatment. Similar, but more effective than traditional microdermabrasion, Dermaplane removes not only the dead surface skin cells but the fine vellus hair of the face. There is no pain or downtime associated with this treatment.
Dermaplane is a safe, non-invasive treatment which uses a special tool at a forty-five degree angle and stroked along the skin, while holding the skin taut to remove “peach fuzz”, as well as dead skin cells. Dermaplane is performed as a stand alone treatment or prior to other skincare treatments to enhance their effectives .This is a wonderful form of exfoliation that can be used with or without chemicals. This treatment does not require downtime and will effectively smooth acne scars and give you the smoothest possible skin.
What are the benefits of having a Dermaplane?
Promotes smoother skin
Removes soft facial hair that traps dirt and oil.
Dermaplanning enhances the effectiveness of other skincare treatments such as chemical peels and other topical skincare products by providing deeper product penetration.
Reduces recent acne scars
Reduces fine lines
Produces immediate results with no downtime
Is a Dermaplane Facial a safe procedure?
When performed by a well trained professional, dermaplanning is very safe.
Will my hair grow back thicker?
No. This is physiologically impossible. There are two types of hair that grow on your body. Vellus hair, which when cut or removed will grow back the same size and shape, therefore, the main structure of vellus hair does not change and is not altered by dermaplanning. Terminal hair however, is physiologically coarse. When this hair type is cut it will always grow back coarse. Dermaplanning is designed to treat the vellus hair which is located on the face. Once vellus hair is cut it will maintain a blunt edge and this blunt edge will not physiologically alter the hair itself.
What areas can be treated?
Dermaplanning is performed on the face and neck only
Can men have Dermaplane Treatments?
Yes. However, what would be the areas of vellus hairs on a woman, are classed as terminal hair (beard) on a man. Therefore, they would only really have the upper cheeks, nose and forehead treated.
How often is the procedure performed?
Dermplanning is usually performed every three-four weeks. Treating the skin in this manner actually removes about two-three weeks worth of dead skin cells. The skin needs to complete its normal thirty day rejuvenation cycle before the treatment is done again.
Does the skin peel from dermaplanning?
Occasionally the skin will peel after a dermaplane. If the procedure is done in two week intervals, the growth cycle of your hair may not be complete; therefore you are treating skin unnecessarily. This may cause peeling to occur.
What skin types/conditions can be treated?
All skin types may benefit from dermaplanning. However dermaplane is not recommended if you have acne or an excessive production of sebaceous gland oil. (Sebaceous glands excrete oil along the vellus hair). If the hair is removed, the oils may cause bacteria growth that can stimulate acne breakouts.
