How often should you get a DermaSweep?
DermaSweep treatments should be administered every 3-4 weeks to achieve optimal results. Depending on your skin and how it responds to the treatments, that timeline might shift a bit. For best results, it is always a good idea to check in with your skin care specialist and discuss a plan of action that works specifically for you.
Often times, a more frequent maintenance plan (every two weeks) may be necessary if you are trying to target a specific skin concern or want to maintain an already beautiful complexion. Be mindful that everyone’s skin is different, and following general guidelines for DermaSweep treatments may not work for everyone.
Is DermaSweep the same as microdermabrasion?
No, DermaSweep and microdermabrasion are not the same.
DermaSweep is a multi-functional skin resurfacing system that combines a mechanical form of exfoliation, infusion of customized solutions and gentle vacuum suction to remove the superficial layer of skin, improve skin texture and diminish fine lines.
This process leaves the skin feeling smooth, generally without any redness, while it helps boost collagen production, reduce age spots and other signs of aging, and treat acne.
On the other hand, microdermabrasion involves using small crystals or a special diamond tip to slough away dead skin cells revealing fresh skin. It also involves suction to remove the crystals, along with the dead skin cells, providing a deep exfoliating effect.
As with DermaSweep, microdermabrasion increases collagen production, stimulates cellular renewal and helps unclog pores. However, unlike DermaSweep, this method can sometimes leave the skin feeling slightly irritated.
Both treatments may offer similar results, but DermaSweep is a gentler, non-invasive procedure with virtually no downtime, which makes it a suitable choice for almost anyone who wants to reduce the appearance of aging, skin discoloration and/or acne.
Does DermaSweep hurt?
No, DermaSweep does not hurt. This multi-modality exfoliating facial treatment provides a gentle, non-invasive exfoliation that carries little discomfort. Most patients don’t experience any discomfort during the DermaSweep session, and they can return to their regular activities immediately after their treatment.
DermaSweep delivers a comfortable and safe treatment to tone the skin, clear out pores, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. The customizable treatments and a wide range of intensity settings allow clients to get the best results with minimal discomfort.
The adjustable vacuum pressure can be increased or decreased depending on the preferences of the patient.
What to expect after DermaSweep?
After you undergo a DermaSweep treatment, you can expect to have smoother, softer, and more even-toned skin. The treatment encourages skin cell turnover and helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, sun spots, acne scarring, enlarged pores, and other skin imperfections.
Additionally, the treatment helps to improve skin texture and tone, hydrate, and reduce the appearance of skin discoloration.
Immediately after your DermaSweep treatment, you may experience some redness and a slight tingling sensation that will quickly subside. Skin hydration and mild exfoliation may be seen directly after a treatment.
More significant skin changes usually occur within 4-6 weeks as collagen production is triggered and you will begin to see smoother, more even-toned skin that appears more youthful and brighter. Results can last 3-4 months, but multiple treatments are typically recommended, depending on your skin concern, to maximize and maintain optimal results.
How do I prepare for DermaSweep?
When preparing for a DermaSweep treatment, it is important to start by making sure that your skin is properly cleansed and exfoliated before the appointment. This helps to clear any debris or buildup on the surface of your skin, allowing the DermaSweep handpiece to more effectively glide over the skin and deliver optimal results.
You should also avoid using any products containing retinoid, glycolic or salicylic acid on your skin before or after the appointment as these can irritate and dry the skin. Additionally, it is best to avoid any prolonged sun exposure prior to the appointment to reduce the risk of irritation.
On the day of your appointment, it is best to not wear any makeup or skincare products so that the DermaSweep handpiece can properly and more effectively glide over the skin surface. If you are planning to receive a Professional Peel as part of your DermaSweep treatment, then it is highly recommended to avoid waxing, bleaching, and peels for at least two weeks prior to the appointment as these can weaken the skin barrier and make your skin more sensitive during the treatment.
To ensure the best results, it is a good idea to discuss your skin health history and any skin concerns with your esthetician prior to the treatment. This way, they can adjust the settings on the DermaSweep handpiece to meet your individual needs.
What should you do before you Dermaplane?
Before you Dermaplane, it is important to take several precautionary steps to ensure the safety and effectiveness of your treatment. First, it is essential to make sure your skin is clean, free from makeup, and thoroughly exfoliated.
This will help to avoid trapping any dirt or oil in the skin, which can make skin more likely to become irritated or broken. Second, make sure to select a reputable Dermaplane practitioner trained in the proper technique.
You should also inquire about the type of blades used for the procedure and the level of experience of the practitioner. Finally, you should take some time before your appointment to understand any potential risks associated with the procedure and the aftercare required.
Remember, while Dermaplane is typically very safe, it is important to closely follow any advice given by your practitioner. It is also advisable to inform them of any medical conditions you may have before undergoing facial treatments.
