What is Dermaplaning?


Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation treatment that employs a medical scalpel with a gentle touch to remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hairs, commonly known as "peach fuzz."  This aesthetic treatment is typically offered as an exfoliating facial treatment, and is followed by carefully chosen medical-grade skincare products to benefit your overall skin health.  Dermaplaning may also be paired with other aesthetic treatments, such as microchanneling, microneedling, or chemical peel application.  In either instance, your skin is guaranteed to feel smoother and look brighter, with a more even-toned complexion.



Benefits of a Dermaplaning Session:


  • Instantly Smoother Skin: Dermaplaning exfoliates the skin's surface, removing dull and dead skin cells, instantly revealing a smoother and softer complexion, leaving you with a fresh and youthful glow.
  • Enhanced Skincare Product Absorption: With the removal of dead skin cells and fine hairs, your skincare products can penetrate more effectively, maximizing their benefits and effectiveness.
  • Reduced Appearance of Fine Lines: By exfoliating the skin's surface, dermaplaning helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, making it an excellent anti-aging treatment.
  • Makeup Application, Perfected: Dermaplaning creates a smooth, flawless canvas for makeup application, ensuring your foundation and makeup products go on effortlessly and evenly.
  • Suitable for All Skin Types: Dermaplaning is safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin. It's a gentle and effective treatment that doesn't cause irritation or redness.



The Treatment Process:


  • Preparation: Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed and prepared for the dermaplaning procedure.
  • The Treatment: A medical scalpel with a gentle touch is used to remove dead skin cells and vellus hairs.  There are no incisions involved; it is a precise and non-invasive exfoliation technique.
  • Finishing Touches: Once the dermaplaning is complete, a soothing moisturizer or hydrating serum is applied to nourish and protect the skin.
  • Post-Treatment Care: Avoid direct sun exposure and wear sunscreen to protect your newly revealed skin.
  • How Often to Treat: You can safely receive a dermaplaning facial every 2-4 weeks to maintain results.
  • Home Maintenance: Follow your skincare provider's recommendations for home care, including the use of gentle cleansers and avoidance of harsh products.

You know about the Immune System, but what about  the Endocannabinoid System?

Botox goes by many names – anti-wrinkle injections, wrinkle relaxers, neurotoxins, neuromodulators, tox, as well as all the name brands ( there are currently 5 on the market! ) – but for simplicity’s sake, we will refer to all of them as either botox or tox in this blog. These injections are non-surgical cosmetic treatments designed to smooth or prevent wrinkles and fine lines by temporarily decreasing the strength in which the facial muscles contract. How Quickly Do Botox Injections Work? Have you ever wondered how quickly these magical anti-wrinkle injections can smooth your fine lines and wrinkles? Or if they can help prevent further lines? These are common curiosities surrounding this popular cosmetic medical procedure, and we’re here to share the truth with you about the speed and efficacy of these aesthetic injections. How Does the Magic Work? When administered by a qualified practitioner, tox injections target specific facial muscles, preventing them from contracting and forming wrinkles on the skin. The effects are temporary, and typically last between three to six months, depending on factors such as the individual’s metabolism, strength of musculature, frequency of treatment, and dosage. When Will I See the Results? Contrary to popular belief, these injections do not provide instant results. Botox injection results are gradual – although many patients may start to observe subtle improvements in as little as 3-4 days after treatment, it takes a full two weeks for optimal effects. By that two-week mark, the treated muscles have fully relaxed, and wrinkles become less prominent, resulting in a smoother and more youthful complexion. How Long Does It Last? While the initial effects of tox injections start to wear off after several months, regular maintenance is recommended to prolong and enhance your results. With consistent sessions spaced appropriately, you can continue to improve your skin texture and elasticity, maintaining a refreshed look year-round. What Influences Its Efficacy? The effectiveness of tox injections is determined by the dosage administered and the practitioner’s skill in performing the procedure. A qualified injector will tailor the treatment to suit your unique facial anatomy, taking into account your overall health, general skin condition, activity level, and previous exposure to tox. This attention to detail maximizes your results while minimizing risks. Your skin health and age also impact the speed and effectiveness of the injections. Younger individuals with minimal sun damage and very superficial wrinkles may experience a quicker onset of results as compared to older patients with more pronounced signs of aging. Lifestyle habits also influence the efficacy of injections, such as avoiding excessive sun exposure and maintaining a healthy diet. Additionally, staying well-hydrated and refraining from smoking and excessive alcohol consumption contribute to overall skin health, enhancing the longevity of the results. Think You May Be Ready for Tox? While botox injections are not a quick fix for aging skin, they do offer a gradual and effective solution for reducing wrinkles and achieving a youthful appearance. At Inner Vision Aesthetics & Wellness, your safety and satisfaction are our priority. There are no cookie-cutter treatments here, only customized skincare plans tailored to each person’s unique needs. Whether you’re considering tox injections for the first time, or are seeking maintenance sessions, our experienced professionals will guide you through every step of the journey at a pace that will benefit you most. With patience and consistent treatments, you can unlock the full potential of these anti-wrinkle injections, leaving you with radiant, rejuvenated skin.
