Lactic Acid in Dermaplaning — Protocol Guide

Lactic Acid in Dermaplaning Protocols

Lactic Acid plays a key role in professional dermaplaning treatments. An AHA with humectant properties that exfoliates while increasing ceramide synthesis. Larger molecular size than glycolic acid provides gentler, more uniform exfoliation.

Role of Lactic Acid in Dermaplaning

Manual exfoliation using a sterile surgical blade to remove dead skin cells and vellus hair, creating a smooth canvas for product absorption Lactic Acid enhances this treatment through its gentle exfoliation with hydration properties, providing exfoliant support during and after the procedure.

Protocol Integration

In a typical dermaplaning protocol, lactic acid can be utilised at several stages:

  • Pre-treatment: Skin preparation with lactic acid-containing products to optimise treatment outcomes
  • During treatment: Active lactic acid delivery through the treatment modality for enhanced penetration
  • Post-treatment: Recovery support using lactic acid formulations to accelerate healing
