What is Dermaplaning

It is for everyone who wants to achieve that smooth, baby-like skin. There are a few instances when dermaplaning becomes a necessity. If any of them concern you to a certain degree, dermaplaning is your next stop:

  • Scars from acne

  • Scaly skin patches

  • Fine, light, and soft hair on your face (peach fuzz)

  • Damaged skin from sun

  • Wrinkles and fine lines

Is It Expensive? 

The average cost in India for dermaplaning varies between ₹1000-₹4000 per session. Factors like your location and the place you’re opting for affect the costs of dermaplaning.

Additionally, for better results, some clines will advise you to get an add-on for chemical peel so that your skin can absorb the benefits of it. This chemical peel will be charged as well.

Apart from being quick, convenient, and pain-free, there’s no downtime after the procedure as well.

But, How does it work?

The procedure is similar to shaving. The tool looks like a straight razor but Bombae’s GlamUp Beauty Razor also do the trick well.

It works by slowly gliding down that sharp blade across your skin. This removes the dead skin cells, acne scar tissues, and other debris on the top layer of your skin that makes your skin look uneven.

Additionally, for some, this procedure isn’t painless, but there might be a slight tingling sensation during the procedure.

This procedure take anywhere between 7-10 minutes, as it takes attention and precision to perform this.

Post the treatment, your provider will soothe your skin, followed by sunscreen to add a layer of protection to your skin.

How Does It Feel Like

Immediately after the procedure, you will notice that your complexion looks brighter than before. People with sensitive skin might feel redness on their skin, but it takes a few days to see the full results. With time, you will notice your skin getting clearer.
