This non-invasive cosmetic procedure exfoliates the skin by removing the top layers of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, commonly known as peach fuzz. This treatment aims to leave the skin smoother, brighter, and more youthful looking. The Dermaplaning Facial is popular among those seeking a quick and painless solution to achieve a radiant complexion - without downtime.

Before the dermaplaning facial begins, the skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, oils, and impurities. This step ensures that the skin is prepped and free from any substances that might interfere with the effectiveness of the treatment.

The actual dermaplaning technique involves using a sterile surgical scalpel or a special tool to gently scrape off the top layer of dead skin cells and fine hair. The esthetician holds the skin taut and makes precise, gentle strokes at a 45-degree angle. This technique ensures that the exfoliation is even and thorough. The process typically takes about 30 minutes, depending on the area being treated.

After the dermaplaning facial is completed, a soothing serum or moisturizer is applied to calm the skin. It is crucial to avoid direct sun exposure and use sunscreen for several days following the procedure to protect the newly exfoliated skin. Our guests are advised to avoid using harsh skincare products or engaging in activities that might irritate the skin for at least 24 hours.

One of the primary advantages of dermaplaning is that it provides instant results. The skin appears smoother, brighter, and more even-toned immediately after the treatment. Makeup applications become easier and more flawless, as the absence of peach fuzz and dead skin allows for better product adherence.

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive procedure that does not require any downtime, making it an attractive option for those with busy schedules. It is virtually painless, with most patients reporting only a mild sensation similar to shaving.

This treatment is suitable for a wide range of skin types, including sensitive skin. However, individuals with active acne or highly reactive skin conditions should consult with a dermatologist before undergoing dermaplaning to avoid potential irritation.

Regular dermaplaning sessions can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation over time. By promoting cell turnover and enhancing the absorption of skincare products, dermaplaning contributes to overall skin health and rejuvenation.

Temporary Redness and Sensitivity
While dermaplaning is generally safe, some individuals may experience temporary redness and sensitivity following the treatment. These side effects typically subside within a few hours, or by the end of the day.
Risk of Cuts
As the procedure involves the use of a sharp blade, there is a slight risk of cuts or nicks, especially if performed by an inexperienced practitioner. At Colibri Spa, we have the most highly trained professionals for dermaplaning. We do dermaplaning right.
Not Suitable for Active Acne
Dermaplaning is not recommended for individuals with active acne or cystic breakouts, as it can potentially spread bacteria and exacerbate the condition.
