Dermaplaning is a simple yet effective treatment designed to exfoliate the skin and remove fine vellus hair, often called “peach fuzz.” It has been used for years to create a smoother and brighter complexion, and it remains a favorite among those looking for a non-invasive way to refresh their skin. Our expert aesthetician performs dermaplaning as a standalone treatment and combined treatment with facials, chemical peels, and other skincare services to maximize its benefits.
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a gentle skin-resurfacing procedure to exfoliate dead skin cells, minimize unwanted hair growth, and refresh dull skin. This treatment helps improve skin texture, boosts skin cell turnover, enhances product absorption, removes unwanted facial hair, promotes healthier skin, and provides a smooth canvas for makeup application. Many people notice that their skin looks instantly brighter and more youthful after a single session. Dermaplaning is ideal for those who want a non-invasive, painless way to achieve smoother skin without downtime.
How is Dermaplaning Performed?
Our skilled aesthetician uses a sterile, medical-grade scalpel to gently glide over the skin’s surface, removing dead skin cells and fine facial hair. The process is quick, safe, and completely painless. Unlike other exfoliation treatments, dermaplaning does not use chemicals or abrasive particles, making it ideal for individuals with sensitive skin. The procedure can be performed on its own or combined with hydrating facials and chemical peels to enhance its effects. After the treatment, the skin immediately feels softer and appears more radiant.
Who is a Good Candidate?
The best candidates for dermaplaning are individuals looking to improve skin texture, reduce dullness, and create a smooth surface for makeup application. While dermaplaning is safe for most skin types, it may not be suitable for individuals with active acne or certain skin conditions. During your consultation, we will evaluate your skin and recommend the best treatment plan based on your unique needs.
What is Recovery Like?
One of the biggest advantages of dermaplaning is that there is no downtime. The treatment is gentle enough to be done on a lunch break, allowing you to resume normal activities immediately. Some patients may experience slight redness, but this typically subsides within a few hours. To maintain the benefits of dermaplaning, wearing sunscreen daily is essential, as newly exfoliated skin is more susceptible to sun exposure. You will enjoy fresh and radiant skin that lasts for weeks with proper skincare.
