If the mere idea of shaving your face horrifies you and conjures up images of painful stubbles and growing a female beard, you’re not alone. In fact, a quick search online shows that most people would rather wax, thread or go through a laser procedure to remove unwanted hair than shave their face. But what if we tell you that there’s another kind of “shaving” that not only removes unwanted peach fuzz from your face but also leaves your skin with a vibrant glow? Yup, you heard that right: It’s called DERMAFLASHing. Inspired by an in-office exfoliating procedure called dermaplaning, DERMAFLASH is an at-home device that gently removes the outermost layer of the skin, including facial hair.
(Curious to see how this works? Here’s what happened when Dermstore team members tried DERMAFLASH.)
To give us more information about this trendy at-home device, we talked to DERMAFLASH founder Dara Levy.
So tell us, what exactly is DERMAFLASH?
Dara Levy: DERMAFLASH was inspired by the dermaplaning treatment and, accordingly, produces similar results. Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliating treatment that uses a sterile, surgical blade and removes dead skin cells, built-up debris as well as vellus hair. This medical-grade treatment is available only in doctor offices and medical spas and is performed by a physician, nurse or trained medical aesthetician. DERMAFLASH was born in the med spa that I own. After our med spa performed 6,000 dermaplaning treatments in five years, I realized an at-home solution did not exist and created DERMAFLASH. This device is powered by a subtle sonic vibration, which provides an elegant and comfortable treatment, while also enhancing the efficacy of the treatment. It has multiple safety features built in. The blade in our Edge is covered by a safety cage that ensures a safe, smooth result.
Who should use DERMAFLASH?
DERMAFLASH was invented by a woman for ALL women. This little magic wand is appropriate for women of all ages, colors, skin types and tones.
