BEYOND THE TREATMENT PROTOCOL

Understanding the Science Behind Exfoliation

Professional dermaplaning involves more than removing dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. It requires an understanding of skin anatomy, barrier function and the importance of controlled exfoliation.

A considered professional treatment combines precise blade techniques with informed client assessment, appropriate treatment planning and a skin-first approach that prioritises safety and individual skin needs.

Throughout your training, you'll develop the knowledge to:

• Understand the structure of the epidermis, stratum corneum and their roles in maintaining skin barrier health.

• Explore the differences between vellus and terminal hair and their relevance to professional dermaplaning.

• Develop an understanding of blade selection, positioning, treatment angles and controlled exfoliation techniques.

• Recognise contraindications, assess skin suitability and identify when treatment adaptations are necessary.

• Understand skin responses, post-treatment care and the importance of supporting barrier recovery.

• Incorporate The Seoul Dermaplaning Method into your professional treatment menu with confidence.
