Dermaplaning
Revitalise your skin this summer with Dermaplaning!
The summer is a challenging time for your skin. The combination of sweat, sun exposure, and dust is a sure recipe for breakouts, hyperpigmentation, and a dull complexion. You’re also limited when it comes to cosmetic procedures that fight UV damage and decongest the skin.
So what can you do this summer to maintain a clear complexion?
Dermaplaning is an excellent alternative to chemical peels in the summer. This procedure doesn’t sensitise your skin to the sun as much as a skin peel, and it doesn’t involve any peeling, pain, or downtime.
At Holmes of Beauty in Bournemouth, we perform dermaplaning using a medical-grade scalpel to remove the upper layer of the skin, tiny hairs, dead skin cells, and debris. Exfoliating your skin naturally, dermaplaning uses no chemicals and has zero risk for allergies. It can truly revitalise your skin during the summer. Combine dermaplaning with any of our facials for ultimate results!
Increase absorption of skin care products
A gentle exfoliation session with dermaplaning increases the rate at which your skin absorbs your favourite skin care products in two ways: It increases blood flow and it removes vellus hair.
With dermaplaning, you can be sure that the moisturisers and products you’ve spent your money on get thoroughly absorbed into your skin, enabling you to reap all of their benefits. The removal of peach fuzz can also help with makeup application because foundation sits better on your skin when no hairs get in the way.
Why dermaplaning should only be done in a professional setting
You can find razors that exfoliate your skin in stores, but these aren’t as effective at removing dead skin cells and debris as the surgical blades professionals use.
Also, not everyone is a good fit for dermaplaning. If you take certain medications or use prescription-strength Retinol, you may have to interrupt your treatment for 5-7 days before having the procedure done.
