Exfoliation is great for the skin, especially on our faces. It leaves skin looking brighter, prevents breakouts by unclogging pores, and increases skincare products’ efficacy by boosting absorption. Cultivating a long-term exfoliation routine will increase collagen production, which creates glowing, youthful skin and fights off sagging and wrinkles.

Microdermabrasion (MDA) and dermaplaning (DP) are two different skin exfoliating processes. While both offer the benefits of exfoliation, they each have their own additional benefits and are better suited for particular people. Exfoliation is important, but which procedure is right for you? Let’s compare MDA and DP and explore their advantages, so you can determine which is right for you.

This treatment was first developed in Europe in the 1980s. Since that time, it has increased in popularity, and it is now known as one of the top non-surgical methods to refresh and restore facial skin. We offer diamond MDA.

Diamond MDA: This is the most common choice. It involves using a vacuum suction wand encrusted in diamonds, the aesthetician gently eliminates the top layers of dead and dull skin. The quality and intensity of the treatment depends on the aesthetician maintaining a certain level of pressure to exfoliate the skin effectively.

If your skin feels drab or lackluster, MDA can have some truly excellent after-effects, such as:

• Smooth skin
• Brighter complexion
• Collagen production
• Softer fine lines and wrinkles
• Reduced acne scars
• Reduced hyperpigmentation
• Smaller pores

Generally, a minimum of five sessions is needed to see the best results. Both treatments are painless but require about a week of recovery time for the skin to heal. Once the skin has healed, you can use makeup. Your face can retain a pinkish color for up to eight weeks, and your normal skin color will slowly return over that time.

Who Is It For?

MDA is recommended for patients with non-sensitive skin. Although the procedure can be quite valuable, it’s hard on sensitive skin. If you have a skin condition that causes redness like rosacea, or simply sensitive skin that reddens easily, MDA is too aggressive for your skin type. It could even make existing skin problems worse.

Dermaplaning has been around in the USA since the 1970's. Its original use was described as a possible remedy for acne vulgaris – a type of acne caused by an excess of dead facial skin, facial bacteria, and facial oils, causing pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and cysts.

DP exfoliation requires the aesthetician to manually scrape built-up dead skin cells off your face with a sharp surgical blade. As dead skin is scraped away, so is vellus hair or “peach fuzz.” This is beneficial because these tiny hairs harbor dirt and oil, which cause breakouts and a diminished complexion.

If your skin is looking dull and you have a lot of acne (cystic or otherwise), DP is a gentle way to exfoliate your skin and reap some amazing benefits, including:

• Smoother, more radiant skin
• Softer fine lines and wrinkles
• Reduced scarring
• Removal of vellus hair (it won’t grow back darker or thicker)

DP can show great results after one session, and there is no recovery time. It’s easy, painless, and won’t leave your skin red for an extended period of time. It's a fact that many famous actors, singers, and performers prefer DP because it requires no recovery time.

 DP is suited for all skin types, even patients whose skin is sensitive or retains redness. It will be most effective on aging, acne-scarred, and dry skin types..

Deciding between MDA and DP can be difficult, especially if you have a normal skin type that makes you well suited for either. If you have any big events coming up for which you don’t want your skin to be red and in the process of healing, DP is probably the better option. If you have sensitive skin, recently got a chemical peel or a more invasive facial treatment, or are pregnant or nursing, DP is the better option again.

A common patient question is, “Can you dermaplane after microdermabrasion?” The answer is no, not until your skin has healed from MDA. However, the aesthetician may recommend DP combined with MDA. In this case, because it is less aggressive, DP must be done first, and MDA can follow. Either can be done in combination to an chemical peel, improving the effects of the peel. 

As you weigh the benefits of each procedure, remember that there is no right choice for everyone. The best option for you depends on your specific skin concerns and needs. Both exfoliating procedures have the potential to benefit your skin immensely, but if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or have sensitive skin, MDA isn’t for you. If you’re currently suffering from an acne outbreak, DP will have to wait until your breakout subsides. For the ultimate skin exfoliation experience, ask our aesthetician about combining services.

If you aren’t sure of your skin type and need assistance deciding which treatment is right, book an in-depth skin consultation session and get an in-depth skin analysis with ImagePro® SUNLITE.

Lumecca treats vascular and pigmented lesions to help reduce the look of aging throughout your entire body including the face, neck & décolletage (neck & upper chest areas), the hands, the arms, legs, and anywhere else that you might notice sun or age spots. NOT FOR MELASMA TREATMENT. NOT FOR FITZPATRICK SKIN TYPES V-VI.

The procedure itself is very simple and painless. During the treatment session, your practitioner will use a handheld device to produce a flash of light and mild vibrations to the areas being treated on the skin. Since Lumecca, which uses photothermolysis, is the strongest IPL treatment currently available, most procedures can be done in just a few short sessions (3-4 sessions recommended).

It is best to schedule a consultation first (if possible but not required) in order to better prepare for this treatment. We highly recommend a specific skin care routine in advance to ready your skin for treatment and best outcomes. Must be 3 weeks without direct sun exposure, otherwise we cannot proceed with treatment.

Enjoy longer, beautiful lashes with eyelash extensions. Jessie provides a full application along with follow up fills.

Lash Lift & Tint: This treatment is used to tint, lift and curl each individual lash, giving you a more fuller effect as lashes appear longer and more voluminous. 

Brow tint and lamination is similar to a lash lift, as it lifts your brow hairs to make them look fuller and helps with getting unruly brow hairs in place. Brow lamination fills gaps and gives the illusion that you have thick, luscious brows without using invasive techniques.

We customize each treatment to ensure the colour for the tint matches your preference and natural colour.
