Renew Your Skin With Dermaplaning

Does your skin need a little pick-me-up? By now, you may have heard of dermaplaning in Edinburg and the McAllen area, the popular new treatment that uses a small scalpel to gently exfoliate the skin, revealing a radiant, fresh appearance. Dermaplaning can treat many skin concerns, from aging to acne and beyond. Here at the Rios Center MedSpa, we love dermaplaning as a standalone treatment or an add-on to other treatments—and we think you will, too.

Endless Benefits

Here are some of the many benefits of dermaplaning:

Smoother Skin Texture: Dermaplaning exfoliates the top layer of dead skin cells, leaving your skin feeling incredibly smooth.
Enhanced Product Absorption: By removing the barrier of dead skin cells and fine facial hair (peach fuzz), dermaplaning allows skincare products to penetrate more effectively.
Reduces the Appearance of Fine Lines: The exfoliation process can help minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Evens Skin Tone: Dermaplaning can help even out skin tone by removing pigmented cells, resulting in a brighter complexion.
Instant Gratification: Unlike some skincare treatments, you'll notice immediate results with dermaplaning.
Painless and Non-Invasive: Dermaplaning is a gentle, painless procedure.
Safe for Most Skin Types: It's generally safe for all skin types and tones.
No Downtime: There's typically no downtime—you can resume your regular activities right away.
Can Be Combined with Other Treatments: Dermaplaning can be combined with other skincare treatments for enhanced results.

As with any skincare procedure, it's essential to consult with a qualified practitioner to determine if dermaplaning is suitable for your specific skin concerns and needs.

Candidacy: Is Dermaplaning Right for You?

Dermaplaning in Edinburg and the McAllen area is an effective exfoliation procedure suitable for most skin types. Ideal candidates are those with generally healthy skin, free from active acne breakouts or skin infections in the treatment area. It is particularly beneficial for individuals looking to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and enhance product absorption. Dermaplaning is safe for various skin tones and can be customized to address specific skin concerns. However, individuals with sensitive skin or active inflammatory skin conditions may want to consult a skin care professional to determine their suitability for the procedure. A personalized consultation with an experienced provider can assess candidacy, address concerns, and tailor the treatment to individual needs.

The Procedure: Fresher Skin in One Session

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive and painless skincare procedure that involves gently scraping the skin's surface with a sterile surgical scalpel to remove dead skin cells, vellus hair (peach fuzz), and debris. This exfoliation process leaves the skin smoother, brighter, and more receptive to skincare products.

The treatment typically takes 30 minutes and is performed in a controlled clinical setting. Following dermaplaning, patients may experience mild redness, but there's generally no downtime, allowing individuals to return to their regular activities immediately. The results are often seen immediately, with improved skin texture and a more radiant complexion.

Recovery + Results: Better Skin, Now

Requiring virtually no recovery time, results are usually immediate following your dermaplaning procedure with our medical estheticians. Patients often experience smoother, softer, and more radiant skin right after the treatment. Makeup application becomes seamless, creating a flawless finish. Mild redness, if present, usually subsides within a few hours, allowing individuals to return to their daily activities with no disruption. To maintain the benefits of dermaplaning, it's crucial to follow proper skincare practices and sun protection post-treatment. Many individuals undergo regular dermaplaning sessions to enjoy the rejuvenating effects and maintain a vibrant complexion continually. Consulting with a skin care professional can provide personalized guidance on skincare routines and recommended intervals for dermaplaning to achieve and sustain optimal results.
