What is Dermaplaning?
If skin rejuvenation treatments like microdermabrasion and facials are no longer giving you the outcome you want, but you aren't interested in more invasive procedures, consider dermaplaning. Dermaplaning is a popular cosmetic procedure and facial rejuvenation treatment that smoothes the surface of your skin by removing dead skin cells and fine facial hair for a softer, more radiant complexion. Also known as dermablading, this treatment is completed with a careful scraping technique with a facial blade. Beverly Farris, FNP-C, and the AestheticFX Med Spa team are proud to offer dermaplaning skin treatments in Frisco, TX. Dermaplaning is well-renowned because while it is noninvasive, it is able to provide smoother, younger-looking skin.

How Are Dermaplaning Treatments Performed?
Dermaplaning treatments are usually performed on an outpatient basis at our Frisco, TX Med Spa. After cleaning the skin, the treatment will begin with a gentle skimming of the surface of the skin with a blade. The technician will scrape the treatment area many times until the face has been evenly treated. The treatment time will vary depending on whether part of or the entire face is being addressed. During your consultation, Beverly Farris or a member of the Med Spa team will help you fully understand the process.
What to Expect After Dermaplaning
Following dermaplaning in Frisco, TX, you can expect your face to feel a little red and swollen. These are normal side effects that will begin to subside in a matter of days. It's not uncommon for some mild peeling to occur as the skin heals. However, do not pick at these areas — always allow the peeling process to occur naturally on its own. Patients should avoid prolonged sun exposure since their face will be a bit sensitive from treatment. Expect to see results quickly, since dermaplaning produces softer, smoother skin right away. To help you care for your newly rejuvenated skin, a dermaplaner will discuss a recommended skincare routine, including the use of a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen.

Dermaplaning FAQ
Does dermaplaning hurt?
It shouldn’t hurt. Most patients at AestheticFX Med Spa in Frisco, TX don't find dermaplaning painful or uncomfortable. The purpose of the treatment is to gently scrape away old or damaged skin cells and "peach fuzz" hair for smoother, healthier skin with a rejuvenated look.
Why is dermaplaning good for the skin?
If you have a lot of "peach fuzz" hair or have tired-looking skin, then this is a great treatment option as it is simple, affordable, noninvasive, and does not require any downtime. Dermaplaning removes old damaged skin and vellus hair for a gorgeous profile. This process additionally removes trapped dirt and bacteria and promotes collagen and elastin development.
Will my hair grow back thicker and darker?
No, it will not. This is a popular myth, but dermaplaning does not affect the natural hair growth cycle. That means it does not cause the vellus hair to grow back thicker and darker.
