Lose Peach Fuzz and Brighten Your Complexion in the Little Rock Area
Anything that can accumulate on your skin—from dead skin cells to fine hairs—can give you a dull look and make it more difficult to apply makeup evenly. Fortunately, for anyone who wants to deal with this common problem, there is dermaplaning. The Little Rock area’s Dermatology Group of Arkansas offers this cosmetic treatment for anyone who wants a clearer, brighter look.
Dermaplaning involves a trained provider using a specialized tool, something like a scalpel, to remove the vellus hairs—better known as peach fuzz—and pore-clogging debris from the surface of the skin. The result is a more even tone and a natural-looking glow.

How Does Dermaplaning Work?
If you’re familiar with shaving with a razor, you already understand how dermaplaning basically works. By moving a scalpel-like blade in careful, feather-like strokes, we can gently exfoliate the skin while removing unwanted fine hairs on the cheeks, chin, upper lip, and elsewhere. This allows the fresh and clean skin below to be seen, opens pores, and stimulates circulation.
There may be some slight redness in the day following a dermaplaning session, and you should be extra sure to wear sunscreen when going outdoors, but no downtime is required, and the results are visible right away. Patients with acne outbreaks, skin infections, and cold sores are advised to wait until their condition resolves before choosing dermaplaning.
What Can Dermaplaning Address?
Aging skin is more prone to looking dry and dull, which, in turn, can make fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and pores more noticeable. Dermaplaning removes the layers of debris and built-up skin cells to make signs of damage and aging less apparent.
Opening the pores and dermaplaning away skin flakes and oil can make acne breakouts less likely, since there is less of a chance for follicles to stop up and fill with inflammation-causing bacteria. Taking away barriers also prepares the skin to more readily accept applications of topical serums that hydrate and nourish.
With no fine hairs covering the skin, everything from foundation to sunscreen can be applied more easily for a uniform layer and look.

What Other Exfoliation Treatments Are Available?
Clearing away old cells, dirt, and more is an important part of regaining a healthy and radiant look. We work with each patient to create the ideal treatment plan, which is why dermaplaning may work best for one person, but we may recommend laser skin resurfacing or chemical peels for another.
Microneedling does not remove areas of skin, but it does create channels that open the surface and make it more receptive to absorbing topical solutions. It also prompts collagen generation as part of natural healing processes to improve the overall look of the skin.
Which is best for you? A personalized consultation at Dermatology Group of Arkansas can get you started.
