Would a Peeling or Dermabrasion Treatment Work for Getting Rid of Keratosis Pilaris? I have a bad keratosis pilaris on my legs and upper arms it looks like little red bumps and they get worse when it's cold. Sometimes hair gets trapped too. What can i do?

A: peel for KP

I have never tried a microdermabraision but have done TCA peels for KP. This can be very effective but is temporary.

Is Dermaplaning Safe for Women with Tan or Olive Skin Color? I'm a 32-year-old hispanic woman, and I have a little sun damage, fine lines, and some skin discoloration. My dermatologist recommends Dermaplaning, but I'm not sure if the procedure is safe for me. Will it work for my skin type? I'd like to learn more about it.

A: Dermaplaning is safe on all skin types

Since you are not removing deeper layers of skin, anyone can enjoy dermaplaning without side effects. This is a great option for those of you with darker skin types wanting to erase sun damage. Skin products such as hydroquinone and/or a strong percentage of vitamin C serum is recommended to enhance and speed up results in between dermaplaning treats that can be done once a month. You will be able to see a noticeable difference even after just one treatment.

How Much Does Dermaplaning Cost? What is the usual price range for a dermaplaning treatment?

A: Inexpensive Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a great anti-aging treatment for the face for only $50! Dermaplaning helps to refine the skin through a method of controlled surgical scraping. The treatment gives the skin a smoother appearance by removing the top layer of skin. Best of all, no downtime or pain is involved! This works well in combination with using other aesthetic lasers, particularly Laser Genesis. A popular package of Laser Genesis and Dermaplaning on the same day gives you beautiful results to have your skin sparkling for the holidays for only $160 total!
