Can I Wear Makeup Immediately After Dermaplaning?
Yes, you can wear makeup immediately after dermaplaning. In fact, one of the benefits of dermaplaning is that it creates a smooth surface, making makeup application easier and more even. Since dermaplaning removes the layer of dead skin cells and fine hair (peach fuzz), makeup, such as foundation and concealer, can be applied more smoothly, resulting in a flawless finish. Many individuals find that their makeup stays on longer and appears more radiant after dermaplaning, as the smoother surface helps products adhere better.
However, it’s important to note that your skin may be more sensitive after dermaplaning, so it’s recommended to use gentle, non-irritating makeup products, particularly if your skin is prone to sensitivity. It’s also essential to avoid heavy makeup or products that may clog pores for the first 24 to 48 hours after the procedure. Instead, opt for lightweight, breathable makeup that allows your skin to continue recovering and benefiting from the exfoliation. Additionally, always follow up with sunscreen, as your skin will be more sensitive to the sun after dermaplaning.
