These days, many people are looking for ways to achieve the appearance of younger and more radiant skin. For many, dermaplaning is a practical, safe, and effective option for doing just that. At New York Institute of Beauty (NYIB), dermaplaning is just one of the many in-demand techniques that we teach our estheticians and that we provide as part of our on-site spa services.

What is Dermaplaning?

Specifically, dermaplaning refers to a minimally invasive form of physical skin exfoliation. Using a medical-grade scalpel, the top layer of skin is carefully and gently removed to reveal a brighter, fresh layer of skin underneath. This is a popular skin care treatment for those looking to eliminate unwanted “peach fuzz” on the face while targeting common skin conditions like fine lines, large follicles, and hyperpigmentation.

There are so many skin care benefits of dermaplaning, starting with the fact that the physical results are practically immediate. Those who have had dermaplaning done will enjoy the improved feel and appearance of their skin as soon as the treatment is over. Many find that their skin appears smoother, more vibrant, and healthier. Meanwhile, the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and large follicles is effectively reduced in repeated treatment by dermaplaning. This is because dermaplaning removes dead skin cells that can accumulate oil/dirt over time and detract from the overall appearance of the skin.

Another huge benefit of dermaplaning is that it’s minimally invasive and requires almost zero downtime. This makes it a great skin care treatment for those who don’t want to commit to anything invasive but still want to enjoy noticeable results. Likewise, many people enjoy being able to return to work or other daily activities right away following a dermaplaning appointment.

Aside from being minimally invasive and leaving skin looking more youthful, dermaplaning also makes it easier for the skin to absorb products. As a result, many will find that their moisturizers and topical creams apply and absorb more readily—and that they’re able to achieve a better makeup application.
