Dermaplaning in Colorado Springs

SKIN RESURFACING

Dermaplaning + Microdermabrasion in Colorado Springs

Dermaplaning + Microdermabrasion facials are excellent procedures for deep exfoliation. Giving you the immediate benefit of complexion results with no visible downtime.

These treatments bring the prep and exfoliation of the skin to another level, which you simply cannot achieve with home based products and devices. You may also schedule these treatments online without a prior consultation. If you are planning to experience the Aspen Skin Transformation, our expert medical esthetician performs both dermaplaning and microdermabrasion during her comprehensive treatment (as long as your skin type permits).

STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD

HOW DOES DERMAPLANING WORK?

Dermaplaning is performed using a scalpel (yes, like the surgical one). Microdermabrasion is performed using a small handheld wand with an abrasive diamond tip.

Microdermabrasion uses a suction device with a diamond tip that glides over the surface of your skin. These additional steps will help expose a new layer of skin and further cleans the oil and sebum build-up from your pores. Dermaplaning removes the light peach fuzz that we have all over our face with minimal sensation and zero discomfort. Microdermabrasion uses a completely different modality. The suction hand piece with diamond tip feels a little scratchy like mild sandpaper as it glides over the surface of your skin. These additional steps will help expose a new layer of skin and further cleans the oil and sebum build up from your pores.

No matter what stage of life we are in, we all have build up of dead skin cells and oily layers on our skin’s surface. By properly prepping the skin with the addition of dermaplaning and microdermabrasion, we are able to essentially remove this layer of dead skin cells. This process leads to the promotion of new skin growth and targets skin conditions such as: rough texture, dull complexion, fine lines and wrinkles, age or sun spots, environmental damage, broken capillaries, redness and inflammation, acne, enlarged and visible pores, chronic dryness, and overall skin health. When these treatments are integrated into The Aspen Skin Transofrmation it makes a big difference with the steps that follow which may include chemical peels, Hydrafacial®, radiofrequency, laser, and IPL, resulting in a more effective treatment, virtually no downtime, and absolutely STUNNING results.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM A DERMAPLAINING OR MICRODERMABRASION TREATMENT?

After a thorough consultation and agreement on your specific skincare goals for your treatment, our expert medical esthetician will begin your facial with a double cleanse and steam treatment. For a dermaplaning treatment she uses a simple scalpel blade with a handle and performs a very gentle exfoliation in smooth motions across the skin’s surface. Microdermabrasion uses a handheld device with a mild exfoliation using a diamond tip and a suction apparatus.

You may feel a gentle “sanding” sensation, but this is not painful. It takes about 30 to 40 minutes to treat the entire face and about 20 minutes to treat the neck. Dermaplaning takes anywhere between 10-20 minutes and can be performed every 2-4 weeks. Both are non-painful, with zero downtime, and require no additional numbing or anesthetic.

You will see glowing and younger looking skin instantly after one treatment. Long-term results are sustained when the treatment is completed in a series, maintained on a schedule, and incorporating into a treatment plan with multiple modalities for anti-aging and correction of problematic skin conditions. After a series of treatments, most people say they have smoother skin and a more radiant complexion.

After microdermabrasion, your treated skin may appear pink or red. This tends to disappear within a day. In some cases, the skin can bruise, burn, sting, or become extremely sensitive to sunlight. There is no downtime or recovery period following dermaplaning or microdermabrasion and protecting your skin from the sun helps ensure the best possible results and reduces the risk of side effects.

THE ANSWERS YOU NEED

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


Dermaplaning is a treatment that uses a medical scalpel to gently exfoliate the outer layer of dead skin cells and remove fine facial hair commonly known as “peach fuzz”, technically called “vellus” hair. Following the treatment, your skin will have a more radiant appearance, makeup application is smoother and other skincare products are able to penetrate deeper making them more effective. Dermaplaning is integrated into our Aspen Skin Transformation or can be added on to other treatments such as: chemical peels, hydrafacial, and laser treatments for an enhanced result.

The ideal candidate for Dermaplaning has a build up of dead skin cells, excess vellus hair (peach fuzz), dry, rough, or uneven skin tone. Dermaplaning can also help reduce the appearance of shallow acne scars, fine lines and superficial hyperpigmentation. For flawless makeup application and a healthy glow dermaplaning is for you!


These treatments are extremely safe when performed by an properly trained skincare professional. There is no more risk to the skin than when you shave your legs. There is also no downtime associated with this procedure.

Microdermabrasion is a deep, medical-grade physical exfoliation that vacuums away dead skin cells from the epidermis, which then helps promote the growth of new and healthy skin cells. It also improves skin tone and texture, helps reduce superficial scars, deeply exfoliates the skin, allows for better treatment product penetration, and improves the overall health of your complexion.

You’ll see glowing and younger looking skin instantly after one treatment, but long-term results are much more likely when the treatment is completed in a series and maintained on a schedule. After a series of treatments, most people say they have smoother skin and a more-radiant complexion.

Microdermabrasion is non-invasive and not painful. It feels like mild suction along with a slightly scratchy sensation as the diamond tip is moved sequentially along the surface of your skin.

Such a warm, welcoming atmosphere and an amazing experience! I cannot recommend Sierra enough. I’ve never felt more confident or excited about my future treatments!
Review from Google
Very thorough first visit for a veteran Xeomin user. I really liked my aesthetician Sierra. She was attentive, listed to all my concerns and used 1/3 of the units I was planning on buying. I was extremely pleased and will go back. All the women who work there use the products and look good.
They were very busy, and their clientele was across the board which I like. Not just women getting tons of Botox but using other services as well. People were buying their off the shelf products like crazy. Want to ask about that in my follow up.
Structured more like a doctor’s office which I like feels more professional than a lot of other places. But the staff make you feel very welcome. It’s night and day from my experience at Renaissance Day Spa. I liked my aesthetician there but the overall vibe was like an after school program in the High School basement. I like Aspen much better. They seem inclusive and genuinely interested in you and are nice from the second you walk in. Love that.
