During a dermaplaning session, a trained aesthetician uses a sterile, surgical-grade scalpel to gently scrape away the outermost layer of dead skin cells and fine hair. This process involves precise, controlled strokes to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the treatment. The removal of these superficial layers promotes cell turnover and improves skin texture, which can result in a more even tone and a more youthful appearance. Dermaplaning is typically performed on the face but can be applied to other areas of the body as needed.
