How Many Dermaplaning Sessions Are Required to See the Results?

Dermaplaning is an agressive method of exfoliating which is a permanent ongoing process. Typically, you will benefit from a course of 3-6 treatments over the short term. Long term, you will need to maintain. Otherwise, its kind of similar to asking how many times do you need to trim your lawn to get the desired results. Your skin is constantly growing.

After one dermaplane session you will see immediate results! During the session your esthetician is removing dead skin cell build up and peach fuzz on the surface of the skin. You will immediately notice smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin. Any skincare products will absorb deeper in the skin and makeup application looks flawless!

Dermaplaning is an easy procedure where dead skin is removed from the epidermis, as well as vellus hair. Skin appears smoother, lessening the appearance of acne scarring, any sun damage or hyperpigmentation and fine lines and wrinkles. Dermaplaning may be done as a stand alone treatment or to enhance another facial treatment, such as a brightening peel. Most patients love this for their monthly facial, as it yields soft skin and a beautiful glow. 

As with any exfoliation treatment, the best results of dermaplaning will be achieved after a series of treatments. Typically a series includes 6 treatments but many patients feel they begin to see positive changes in their skin within 2-3 treatments.

Thank you for your question. Dermaplaning is a method of exfoliation that consists of using a scalpel blade to gently scrape off the top layer of dulling dead skin cells in order to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion. This treatment also removes vellus hair otherwise known as peach fuzz. Results from this treatment can be seen immediately. This treatment is typically ongoing as peach fuzz grows back and dead skin reoccurs. It can be done about every 4 - 6 weeks. Consult with an experienced medical aesthetician in your area. Good luck!
