Benefit of Dermaplaning:
- It’s a quick procedure of removing epidermal Skin and as result products penetrate better in to deeper layers. Also it’s great to prepare the skin for superficial chemical peels or before a cleansing facial.
- It is also a great treatment to offer to patients who are pregnant or nursing and want a deep exfoliation, but are not allowed to use any chemicals on their skin.
- It is also a great choice for patients who have peach fuzz hair on the skin. This hair often causes a buildup of dirt and oils in the follicles, so removing the hair gives the client healthier looking skin.

The only contraindications to dermaplaning include an allergy to nickel, numerous raised lesions on the skin and inflamed acne.
