Yes, here’s a list of product categories to avoid for the first few days after dermaplaning:
- Harsh Cleansers: Foaming or sulfate-based cleansers can disrupt your skin’s recovering barrier.
- Exfoliating Acids: AHAs, BHAs, and other chemical exfoliants can be too harsh for newly sensitive skin.
- Retinol & Vitamin C: While beneficial, these actives increase sensitivity and are best reintroduced gradually.
- Fragranced Products: Added fragrances can potentially irritate your skin.
- Heavy Oils & Makeup: Thick products can clog pores. Opt for lightweight formulas or give your skin a makeup-free day.
- Waxing or Hair Removers: These can irritate your skin further.
Focus on gentle, hydrating, and soothing skincare to support your skin’s healing process after dermaplaning.
