This is my second post on facial shaving, and why women should shave their face, yes I said shave. In case you missed my first post in this series click here. But as promised I am going to be discussing a more advanced approach to facial shaving which is dermaplaning. And the best part is that you can do this in the comfort of your own home with the Sonicsmooth by Michael Todd Beauty.
Now before I get into the Michael Todd Beauty dermaplaning device, I wanted to briefly explain the difference between dermaplaning and shaving with a razor. While both are an excellent way to remove vellus hair (peach fuzz), as well as acting as an exfoliative treatment, dermaplaning offers a deeper more targeted exfoliation. Which in turn leads to a brighten skin tone while softening the appearance of wrinkles and much more, just what a woman in her 40’s is looking for!
So, if you want to find out why you need to add dermaplaning to your skincare routine continue reading.
Michael Todd Beauty is always stepping it up when it comes to skincare devices, and their newest product the SONICSMOOTH Sonic Dermaplaning System isn’t any different. As not only is this a dermaplaning device but it also uses sonic technology to remove dead skin cells and fine facial hair expertly, now how great is that?
I'm Still Confused, What The Heck Is Dermaplaning???
As mentioned briefly above dermaplaning is a skincare method that physically removes unwanted facial hair while removing dead skin cells for a smoother and more radiant complexion. Some of you may have had this type of treatment done professionally, which requires the use of a scalpel and a trained practitioner and IT is costly.
Bottom line, dermaplaning takes face shaving to a whole new level, and because of the popularity and demand of this anti-aging procedure, Michael Todd Beauty decided to offer us skincare lovers the chance to do this at home with their Sonicsmooth, the world's true first sonic dermaplaning system. Now no worries there is no scalpel involved, but this at home treatment does provide some of the many benefits that you could get at your aesthetician's office with the added benefit of Sonic Technology. Michael Todd Beauty is known for their sonic skincare products, so it only made sense to harness the power of sonic technology in conjunction with expertly designed safety blades to create a dermaplaning device that ups your anti-aging skincare game, while kissing your peach fuzz goodbye!
Benefits Of Dermaplaning With The Michael Todd Beauty Sonicsmooth
Aside from offering fantastic exfoliation while removing your peach fuzz, dermaplaning with the sonicsmooth really brightens up your skin, giving you a glowing, dewy look.
Additionally it…
- Stimulates your skin to produce new skin cells and collagen (whenever there’s trauma to the skin, collagen is stimulated to help cell renewal).
- Softens the appearance of fine lines by removing the layer of dead skin which contained them.
- Helps the active ingredients in your skincare products to penetrate deeper into the skin, making them more effective.
- Can help with smoothing out acne scars.
- Removes the excessive “face fuzz” that can trap oil and dirt which can lead to other skin issues.
- And your makeup application is FLAWLESS!
No need to hide as this will not happen, it is not possible. I know I was surprised myself, but my aesthetician explained to me why contrary to belief, that your hair can not grow back thicker. You see there are two types of hair that grow on our body. Vellus hair, which is the peach fuzz on your face will grow back the same as it was before you remove it. Therefore, you will not have dark, coarse facial hair grow back after dermaplaning.
How Often Do I Dermaplane
This pain-free method can be done once a week. The Sonicsmooth system comes with a 2 Month Supply of Safety Edges- Stainless steel surgical grade blades encased in a protective case, which is very convenient.
How To Use The Michael Todd Beauty Sonicsmooth
Step 1
Prep The Skin: It is vital that skin is first prepped with a de-greasing cleansing product to completely remove all surface oils from the skin to ensure optimum results. Michael Todd's Honey and Oat Cleanser is an ideal skin prep and comes with the set. It is best to perform a sonicsmooth treatment at a time where you will not be applying makeup directly afterward.
Step 2
Dermaplane The Skin: Hold the skin taut with one hand, and with the sonicsmooth blade in other hand at a 45-degree angle, apply it against the skin and shave. I like to do it in sections, starting at my forehead, to my checks, and moving my way down. You can even shave your neck, as none of us want turkey neck as we get older.
You can shave in any direction, however I try to go in an upward direction and around the mouth area outwards. Also, make sure you are careful and paying attention as you don’t want to accidentally shave off some eyebrow hairs or get too close to your hairline, so do this in front of a mirror.
Step 3
Rinse off and apply your sonicsmooth soothe onto your baby soft skin.
Step 4
Apply your regular skincare products, starting with the ones with the active ingredients first.
So there you have it beauties one of my best anti-aging tips to getting younger looking skin by dermaplaning your face with a Sonicsmooth By Michael Todd Beauty.
