Dermaplaning Specialist in Naperville IL, Plainfield IL and Joliet IL

Dermaplaning is one of many cosmetic procedures available on the market today used for its anti-aging benefits. This procedure works by removing the outermost layer of the skin, to reveal a new, fresh, smooth surface. It is most commonly used for the removal of wrinkles and fine lines, as well as to minimize the appearance of acne scars that are deeply embedded in the skin. Dermaplaning can also be known as blading or micro planing due to the procedure itself. To remove dead skin cells and hair, an exfoliating blade is run over the skin’s surface. It can remove the soft, short hair on the face known as peach fuzz while claiming to be effective in removing deep scars caused by acne, as well as pockmarks. The treatment itself is considered to be safe, so long as it is being performed by a trained and experienced provider.

Everyone’s skin is going to react differently to a dermaplaning treatment, depending on how long it has been since your last treatment and the number of dead skin cells resting on your skin’s surface. The results will also be dependent on your treatment provider and how hard or deep they scrape the blade on the skin. Clients can expect their face to appear red and feel like it is tingling for a few days following their treatment while the skin heals. Some patients may see an immediate change to the brightness of their skin following treatment; however, the final results will take a few days to be fully revealed once the redness has subsided. Dermaplaning results are not permanent, so clients will need to plan accordingly for follow-up treatments in order to prolong their results, with repeat treatments being needed roughly every three weeks to a month. Still not sure if dermaplaning is right for you? Book a consultation with one of the skin specialists. We have convenient locations to serve you in Naperville IL, Plainfield IL, and Joliet IL to discuss the treatment options unique to your skin.

There are many benefits to dermaplaning, although individual results will vary from one person to the next. Your skin specialist at Suburban Healthcare Associates will be able to provide you with the full benefits of the treatment, unique to your skin’s condition and the results you are looking to achieve through the procedure. The procedure itself is low risk, as the blade is merely scraping the dead skin cells off the skin’s surface. Most procedures can be performed without any type of sedation, although a numbing spray or local anesthetic can be used if needed. As the procedure is low risk and doesn’t require sedation, it is performed in a MedSpa or dermatologist’s office setting. There is no downtime needed for recovery, although the patient may experience some skin redness for the first couple of days. The treatment is quick, with most patients needing only 20 to 30 minutes for their provider to perform the exfoliation of the skin. Following the procedure, a soothing substance will be applied to the face, as well as sunscreen, both of which will help to protect your fresh new layer of skin.

Dermaplaning costs can vary from one provider to another based on their education, training, and experience. They can also vary based on many factors. When you have your initial consultation, you will be provided with a quote for your treatment. Dermaplaning is considered a cosmetic treatment and is therefore typically not covered by insurance so patients should expect to foot the bill themselves.

Treatments can generally run anywhere from $150 to $250 per treatment, but the team at Suburban Healthcare Associates `will provide a more accurate price following a consultation appointment.
