A baby soft skin that radiates with a youthful glow is a dream of every woman. Skincare is not just about beauty, it’s a full -fledged science. Trained professionals play a very crucial role in making your skin look and feel its very best version.
Dermaplaning- What is It?
Your skin is the biggest organ of your body and the first line of defence when it comes to protecting it against infections.
UV rays, pollution, cold winds, and other environmental stresses, your skin goes through a lot during a single day. However, did you know that your skin is also is its very own doctor too? Every 28 days or so it sheds the dead skin cells unearthing a fresh and vibrant new layer. This process slows down with age and these stresses accumulate on your skin making it look dull and lifeless.
This is where a skincare routine including exfoliation is highly recommended to keep your skin looking fresh and free from signs of ageing.
So much about exfoliation but what is dermaplaning? Dermaplaning is one of the most effective processes of exfoliation that attacks the common problems that plague your skin.
Dry skin, excess facial hair, dullness, wrinkles and other signs of premature aging are successfully tackled by dermaplaning. It is much more than just shaving, done with a surgical grade scalpel and by a highly trained professional, it takes care of much more than the irritating peach fuzz on your face. And there’s more to it. With all the dead skin cells gone all your skincare products can penetrate effortlessly giving their best to your skin.
Dermaplaning at Home- A Good Idea?
With dermaplaning bursting into popularity, another version of it is fast gaining ground- the DIY , sitting at home dermaplaning. The World Wide Web in general and YouTube in particular has been flooded with home tutorials on DIY dermaplaning. This is accompanied by the market offering a host of home dermaplaning equipment as well.
With the internet offering you all the help and the market with the DIY dermaplaning tools, it’s is but natural to be tempted to do it at at home. But should you go ahead with it at home is a crucial question.
Many trained professionals and experts have cautioned against using the dermaplaning procedure at home. All the DIY videos on dermaplaning are made to look easy and efficacious but remember, it is a highly skilled process and should always be done under the guidance and supervision of a trained professional who knows how to treat your skin correctly.
Dermaplaning is not something that is safe in a normal home environment. Even the blades must be disposed of following guidelines and restrictions, not something that’s mentioned in these so-called Dermaplane kits! A DIY procedure no matter how easy it looks can’t replace training and legislation. Would you ever try to stitch your own wounds? If you are shaking your head to this question, why then would you want to put a scalpel to your face without the supervision of an expert?
The videos may make the procedure look safe but no procedure can replace the safety ensured by a qualified and practicing person whose expertise lies in dermaplaning. It is not merely shaving your face to remove the peach fuzz, dermaplaning is much more than that. A DIY dermaplaning needs an exceptionally practiced hand or else it will lead to bad nicks and cuts.
Experts use a surgical scalpel for the dermaplaning procedure. People doing this process at home often use normal shavers or cheap eye brow razors increasing their chances of injury to their faces.
Moreover, the brow razors don’t exfoliate, they only remove some of your facial hair. This means that what you have done is not dermaplaning, it’s just facial hair removal hence your skin would not reap the benefits that dermaplaning promises.
Treat your skin with the love and tenderness it deserves. Give it the best so that it makes you look your best. Dermaplaning IS your skin’s new BFF but ONLY if it is done under the able hand of a skilled and trained professional.
