Dermaplaning = Medical Exfoliation
Dermaplaning is an exfoliative treatment performed using a scalpel to "shave" away the outermost layers of the skin.

Dermaplaning defined
Dermaplaning is a technique where the outer layers of skin are exfoliated with the use of a blade. Dermaplaning is an effective way to resurface the skin.

For this reason, dermaplaning should be done by a physician or under direct physician supervision.

Dermaplaning for exfoliation
Dermaplaning is an effective way of exfoliation. Using a blade we shave, or remove, the dead skin cells from the epidermis. Along with exfoliating, dermaplaning also helps remove the unwanted velus hairs from the face. Usually, you can see a difference after the first treatment. While this is an aggressive treatment, dermaplaning does not break the capillaries on the face.
