Dermaplaning vs oil planing which method is right for you?


One of my favorite beauty secrets for glowing skin is Oilplaning or dermaplaning with an oil. I have been oilplaning for more years than I can even remember. In my opinion, it is the ideal way to exfoliate and oilplaning is a complete game-changer for anyone who has dry or dehydrated sensitive skin. You will be amazed at how radiant your skin looks immediately. after and the silky smooth texture is addictive. The derma plane facial is one the most popular treatments in my dermatology clinic and patients are really amazed at how much peach fuzz they have removed from their skin.

What is Dermaplaning?
A painless procedure in which a stainless steel blade is carefully guided against the skin at a 45-degree angle, removing layers of dead skin and vellus hairs (fine thin hairs) aka peach fuzz.

Benefits of Dermaplaning:
Dermaplaning removes ~3 weeks' worth of dead cells. So a super effective and gentle exfoliation process. It's not to take the place of chemical exfoliation because you only do this once monthly. Dermaplaning allows skincare products to better penetrate into the skin and absorb better instead of essentially being wasted on layers of dead skin.
Helps you get the most out of your products.
Dermaplaning removes unwanted facial hair/peach fuzz.
Makeup will go on more evenly, and appear less blotchy because typically products and makeup sit on top of the hairs and mat down the hairs) this provides a super smooth canvas.
It's also great for textured Skin because the skin immediately looks much smoother, brighter, and more youthful.
Removing surface build-up via dermaplaning helps decongest the skin.

Typically I do this in the office with a surgical blade as you can see the edge of this is very sharp and you definitely don’t want to use this at home BUT This is one procedure that most patients can safely and effectively do at home the tool I would recommend for home has a guard on the edges so something like this because you are much less likely to get a cut. So in today's video I am going to show you how to derma plane with this tool that you can easily pick up at target that is much safer to use at home.


Avoid dermaplaning if any of the below describes your skin:
• Active Acne
• Skin that is peeling after laser or chemical peels
• Compromised sensitized skin (i.e open, or sunburned skin) or actively/currently flared Inflammatory skin condition such as eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea

LED Light Therapy is a great is do right after dermaplaning. Amongst many other things red light helps with decreasing inflammation making it a great way to end your dermaplaning or oilplaning treatment


And DO NOT worry dermaplaning does not cause your hair to grow back thicker or darker your hair will grow back just as fine as it was within a few weeks!

Additional tips:
On the day of dermaplaning avoid using strong active ingredients to lessen the sensitivity of the skin. Avoid combining with other exfoliation methods like scrubs and peels. Wait at least 24 hours before using an additional exfoliation method. For best results, finish with an ultra-hydrating serum.
