This is a skincare service that is on the rise. I see it all over Instagram, and how much estheticians love dermaplaning! Yes, I imagine it is quite satisfying to remove fuzz and skin cells because there is something to show the client- immediate gratification.
In my educated opinion, this is a trend that should be avoided.
These defense layers are in place to keep the younger and newer cells beneath the surface healthy, hydrated, and thriving in order to make their journey from birth to death as they perform key functions for healthy skin along the way.
This ‘glow’ that comes immediately from the service is from an immune response and the excess oil that is produced as a protection mechanism to desperately try to protect the newly exposed skin.
I cringe as I see the popularity of this service rise. Educate yourself before going in for the razor! Your skin will thank you.
