Everything you need to know about dermaplaning in cheltenham
Dermaplaning facial treatments are an aesthetic treatment, available at Stratum Dermatology Clinic Cheltenham, which aims to make the surface of your skin smooth, radiant and youthful. Dermaplaning can be used for any skin type and is commonly used to remove short, soft, fuzzy hairs on the face as well as improving the following skin conditions:
- Acne scars
- Dull skin
- Dry skin
- Sun damaged skin
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Hyperpigmentation
Every day, your skin is exposed to toxins from the environment, irritants and sun damage. This can be combined with other skin conditions such as scars and wrinkles to make the top layer of your skin look dull, uneven and aged. Dermaplaning can clear away these damaged skin cells, making way for newer fresher skin.
WHAT DOES DERMAPLANING DO?
Similar to other aesthetic skin treatments such as microdermabrasion and chemical peels, dermaplaning works by removing the top layers of the skin, in this case via an exfoliating blade. The blade, which is similar to a razor blade, is slowly moved over the skin to remove dead skin cells, scar tissue and other debris on the skin which makes the surface look uneven or dull.
There should be no pain during the treatment but you may feel a small tingling. Depending on which facial you have, treatment will take between half an hour to an hour. There is little to no downtime after a dermaplaning treatment and it is a low risk procedure, although it is important it is carried out by a trained and experienced aesthetic practitioner. The skin may be slightly red for a few hours following treatment and some people develop small whiteheads a few days after treatment but these will fade.
You will start to see results immediately following treatment and these will continue to be seen after a few days. The results aren’t permanent, lasting for around 1 month. It is important to protect your skin following dermaplaning as it will be extra sensitive to the sun, so wearing sunscreen on your face every time you leave the house following treatment is strongly advised.
Here at Stratum Dermatology Clinics, we offer three types of dermaplaning treatment:
BASIC DERMAPLANING FACIAL
During this treatment, your face will be cleansed and prepared, the dermaplaning will be carried out by our experienced aesthetic practitioner and then your face will be moisturised and spf applied to protect your skin from the sun following treatment.
DELUXE DERMAPLANING FACIAL
PREMIUM DERMAPLANING FACIAL
Our premium dermaplaning facial includes everything from the deluxe dermaplaning facial, but with the addition of LED light therapy following the hydration mask. LED light therapy is an award winning treatment which combines different wavelengths of light at therapeutic doses to naturally stimulate skin rejuvenation and resolve many skin conditions.
