Dermaplaning at Luxura Med Spa in Chicago removes dead surface skin and fine facial hair, often called peach fuzz. It is an option to discuss if your priority is a smoother-feeling complexion or a more even surface for makeup.
What Happens During Dermaplaning?
A provider uses a blade to carefully exfoliate the skin’s surface and remove vellus hair. This is a surface treatment; it does not reach deep scars or remove the underlying causes of pigmentation. Your skin should be assessed before treatment begins.
Is Dermaplaning Appropriate for Your Skin?
Tell the team about active acne, irritation, skin infections, sensitivity, and recent aesthetic treatments. The absence of a chemical peel does not make dermaplaning suitable for every skin condition. Cuts, irritation, and infection are possible, and the provider may recommend waiting until your skin is calmer.
Caring for Newly Exfoliated Skin
Ask for guidance on gentle cleansing, moisturizing, sun protection, and resuming active skincare products. Avoid adding extra exfoliation simply because the skin feels smoother. How often you return should depend on your skin’s response and the rest of your routine.
Questions About Dermaplaning
Will dermaplaning treat deep acne scars?
It removes material from the surface and is not a deep scar-remodeling treatment. Ask about other options if scarring is your main concern.
Can it be part of a facial?
Luxura offers combination facial packages that include dermaplaning. Suitability for multiple steps should be assessed before your appointment.
