Dermaplaning - $ 50
Professional Dermaplaning for Smoother, Softer-Looking Skin
Looking for dermaplaning in Calgary? At The Beauty Nest, located in Seton Ridge in southeast Calgary, I offer professional dermaplaning to help your skin feel smoother, look fresher, and achieve a soft, radiant appearance.
Dermaplaning is a form of manual exfoliation that gently removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells along with fine facial hair, commonly known as peach fuzz.
This treatment can leave your skin feeling silky smooth and create a more even-looking surface for makeup application.
Whether you're preparing for a special occasion or simply want to refresh your skincare routine, dermaplaning can be a wonderful option when suitable for your skin.
What Is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a professional skin exfoliation treatment performed using a specialized blade and controlled technique. It removes accumulated dead skin cells and fine vellus hair from the skin's surface.
Unlike chemical exfoliation, which uses ingredients to loosen dead skin cells, dermaplaning uses a physical exfoliation method. The treatment is designed to improve the feel and appearance of the skin's surface without injections or surgery.
Dermaplaning is also a popular option for people who want to remove facial peach fuzz and enjoy a smoother-feeling complexion.
Benefits of Dermaplaning
When performed appropriately, dermaplaning may offer several cosmetic benefits:
-
Smoother skin texture: Removes surface dead skin cells to leave skin feeling softer.
-
Brighter-looking complexion: Helps refresh the appearance of dull-looking skin.
-
Peach fuzz removal: Removes fine facial hair for a smoother finish.
-
A smoother makeup base: May help foundation and other makeup products apply more evenly.
-
Gentle physical exfoliation: Provides an alternative to certain chemical exfoliation methods for suitable skin types.
-
A refreshed appearance: Helps your complexion look polished and well cared for.
Results vary depending on your skin type, existing skin concerns, and individual response to treatment. Dermaplaning does not permanently remove facial hair or eliminate wrinkles, acne scars, or pigmentation.
Who Is Dermaplaning Suitable For?
Dermaplaning may be suitable for adults who want to remove fine facial hair, exfoliate the skin's surface, and improve the appearance of skin texture.
You may wish to consider dermaplaning if you:
-
Have fine facial peach fuzz you'd like removed.
-
Want your skin to feel smoother and softer.
-
Prefer a non-injectable cosmetic exfoliation treatment.
-
Want a smoother-looking base for makeup.
-
Are looking for a professional facial exfoliation service in southeast Calgary.
A consultation is important before treatment. Dermaplaning is not suitable for everyone, particularly people with active inflamed acne, irritated or broken skin, certain skin conditions, or other contraindications.
Please disclose relevant skin conditions, recent treatments, and medications before your appointment so suitability can be assessed.
What to Expect During Your Dermaplaning Appointment
At The Beauty Nest, your appointment is focused on comfort, cleanliness, and your individual skincare needs.
1. Consultation and skin assessment
We discuss your skincare goals and review your skin's condition to determine whether dermaplaning is appropriate.
2. Skin preparation
Your skin is prepared for treatment using an appropriate cleansing and hygiene process.
3. Professional dermaplaning
A specialized blade is used with controlled movements to remove surface dead skin cells and fine facial hair from suitable areas.
Your $50 dermaplaning appointment includes red light therapy as part of the service. The benefits of light therapy depend on the device and treatment protocol used.
5. Aftercare guidance
You'll receive guidance on caring for your skin after exfoliation, including protecting your skin from the sun and avoiding potentially irritating skincare products while your skin settles.
Your appointment is approximately 60 minutes. Please follow any preparation instructions provided before your visit.
Dermaplaning Aftercare
After dermaplaning, your skin may be more sensitive than usual. A gentle skincare routine can help minimize irritation.
-
Apply a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer.
-
Use broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher and limit direct sun exposure.
-
Avoid scrubs, strong exfoliating acids, retinoids, and other potentially irritating products for several days, or as advised for your skin.
-
Avoid waxing or other irritating facial treatments until your skin has recovered.
-
Do not pick, rub, or aggressively exfoliate the treated area.
-
Follow any personalized aftercare instructions provided at your appointment.
If you experience significant or worsening redness, swelling, pain, blistering, or signs of infection, seek appropriate medical advice.
Does Dermaplaning Make Facial Hair Grow Back Thicker?
No. Dermaplaning cuts fine facial hair at the surface of the skin. It does not change the hair follicle or make the hair biologically thicker or grow faster.
As the hair grows back, its blunt cut end may temporarily feel different to the touch. This is normal and does not mean the hair has changed in thickness.
Is Dermaplaning Good for Sensitive or Acne-Prone Skin?
Dermaplaning is not appropriate for every skin type. People with active inflamed acne, eczema, rosacea flare-ups, skin infections, sunburn, or irritated skin may need to avoid the treatment.
If you use prescription acne medication, retinoids, or recently had a chemical peel, laser treatment, or another resurfacing procedure, discuss this before booking. Depending on your skin and treatment history, professional medical guidance may be appropriate.
Your skin's safety should always come before cosmetic results.
