Dermaplaning

No, dermaplaning is generally a painless procedure! Most people find it to be quite relaxing. While you might feel a light scraping sensation, it’s not painful, and many patients describe the experience as soothing.

The number of dermaplaning treatments you’ll need depends on your individual skin goals, but most clients benefit from a session every 4 to 6 weeks. Since dermaplaning removes your dead skin cells and peach fuzz, your skin will continue to renew itself over time naturally, and regular treatments help maintain that smooth, radiant glow.

You’ll see the results of dermaplaning almost immediately!

While they are immediate, the full benefits, like a more even skin texture and a radiant complexion, will continue to improve over the next few days as your skin rejuvenates. Regular treatments every 4-6 weeks are recommended to maintain these glowing results!

Absolutely! Dermaplaning can be easily combined with a variety of other treatments to enhance your results. At Chopra Cosmetic Surgery, many clients pair dermaplaning with facials, chemical peels, or microdermabrasion for even deeper exfoliation and skin rejuvenation.

For example, combining dermaplaning with a facial can leave your skin feeling extra clean, smooth, and hydrated. You can also pair it with chemical peels for a more dramatic resurfacing effect, as dermaplaning helps the peel penetrate deeper into the skin. Dermaplaning is a great pre-treatment to ensure your skin is smooth and prepped for other procedures like microneedling or laser treatments.

The most common risk is mild skin irritation, such as redness, which usually fades within a few hours to a day. Although rare, tiny nicks or cuts can occur if the procedure isn’t performed correctly. People with active acne or inflamed skin may experience worsened breakouts after dermaplaning, as the procedure could irritate sensitive areas.
