Yes, dermaplaning temporarily increases skin sensitivity to the sun. Here’s the breakdown:
- Fresh Skin: Dermaplaning removes the outermost layer of skin, revealing a fresh, potentially more delicate surface.
- UV Vulnerability: This newly exposed skin is initially more susceptible to sun damage, including sunburn, hyperpigmentation, and premature aging.
Rigorous sun protection is essential after dermaplaning:
- Sunscreen: AIVI Aesthetics strongly recommends using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher daily, even on cloudy days.
- Sun Avoidance: Minimize direct sun exposure, especially during peak hours.
- Protective Clothing: Hats and sunglasses offer additional protection.
