When you want to eliminate unwanted facial hair, a professional dermaplaning treatment is more effective than when you use a razor at home. The oil and dirt that build up in the hair follicles on your face are removed by dermaplaning. This means the exfoliation you receive is a lot better. The final result is a brighter and smoother complexion. Shaving does not offer the same benefits as dermaplaning: • Brighten the tone of your skin • Soften rough skin to leave you with a smoother face • Help soften the look of mild scarring • Improve superficial hyperpigmentation Shaving might be a suitable option for your needs if your only goal is to remove the hair on your upper lip or eliminate your peach fuzz. When you experience a dermaplaning treatment, the dead skin cells found on the surface will be efficiently scraped off by your esthetician providing you with a much better exfoliation than shaving. Your skin will be hairless and smoother and your complexion noticeably brighter.
