Benefits of Dermaplaning in Los Angeles
Hair Removal
Dermaplaning provides immediate, clear, temporary removal of vellus hair/peach fuzz.
Makeup Application
Without that hair to cause clumping and uneven texture, your makeup will apply much smoother.
Treatment Prep
Dermaplaning helps prepare skin for treatments, making many work faster or more effectively.
Consultation
It starts with a personal consultation with your trained and licensed Younique provider. During this relaxing and energizing one-on-one, they’ll discuss your concerns, your goals for treatment, and your medical history. If your provider determines that dermaplaning in Los Angeles is the best treatment for your concerns and goals, your session can be scheduled.
Procedure
First, your Younique provider will remove any makeup and thoroughly cleanse your treatment area. Next, they will use a medical scalpel to lightly remove the epidermis as well as any hair on the face. The scalpel is scraped across the skin in light strokes, leaving behind a soft, clean, and supple layer of skin. The dermaplaning process, also called dermablading, removes much of the dirt and debris from pores, and oils and dirt that had been trapped by the vellus hair.
Recovery
There is no downtime necessary during recovery from your dermaplaning in Los Angeles. Slight puffiness and redness are to be expected immediately after treatment, but these will fade quickly. Because the skin does not go through trauma with this procedure, dermaplaning can be repeated several times throughout the year to keep peach fuzz away and maintain a delightful glow to your skin.
Build Your Custom Treatment Plan
The path for your Younique journey begins with this first step.
Does dermaplaning make hair grow back thicker and darker?
No, dermaplaning/dermablading does not cause hair to grow back thicker and darker. Because it’s not a permanent treatment, the hair will eventually return as your body goes through its natural hair growth cycle. However, the idea that hair grows back darker and thicker after its shaved is an unfortunate but widespread myth.
If you want to remove hair permanently, ask your Younique provider about our other treatments that have more lasting results.
Can't I just do dermaplaning at home for the same results?
You can try dermaplaning at home, but you will not get the same results as Younique’s dermaplaning in Los Angeles.
When you work with a nonsurgical sharp scalpel, you’ll only tackle the vellus hair and not the exfoliation. Pushing hard on your skin with this blade can cause a rash, and worse, could cause a cut and scarring if not done right. Plus, the exfoliation from our professional dermaplaning treatment cuts the vellus hair more deeply than at home, giving you longer-lasting results.
Doing it at home also takes the fresh, exfoliated results out of the picture as the start of other complementary treatments.
