What Dermaplaning Does for Your Skin
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique that uses a sterile surgical blade to gently scrape away dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. The results are immediate, with smoother texture, brighter tone, and a natural glow. It can also help improve the look of:
- Dry or dull skin
- Rough skin texture
- Fine lines and mild acne scars
- Clogged pores and uneven tone
- Makeup application (makeup goes on smoother and more evenly)
How Dermaplaning Works
Using light, controlled strokes, your provider glides a sterile blade across the skin’s surface to physically exfoliate the outermost layer of skin. This removes built-up debris, dull skin cells, and peach fuzz, improving cell turnover and product absorption.
Unlike chemical peels or microdermabrasion, dermaplaning is completely non-invasive and requires no downtime. It’s gentle enough for nearly all skin types and can be performed on its own or paired with a facial or laser treatment for even greater results.
Who is a Good Candidate for Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is ideal for:
- Individuals with dull or rough skin texture
- Anyone looking for instant skin smoothing and glow
- People preparing for a big event, photoshoot, or wedding
- Those who want better skincare product absorption
- Pregnant or sensitive skin clients who want exfoliation without acids
Dermaplaning may not be recommended for those with active acne, open wounds, or certain skin conditions. During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin to ensure it’s the right fit for you.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
Your skin will be cleansed and prepped, followed by a gentle dermaplaning treatment using a sterile surgical blade. The procedure is painless—most patients describe it as a light brushing or scraping sensation. The entire process takes about 30–45 minutes, and you’ll notice immediate improvements in skin texture and radiance.
After the procedure, a hydrating serum or calming mask may be applied, and we’ll finish with SPF to protect your fresh skin.
Tips for Recovery & Best Results
- Avoid direct sun exposure and wear SPF daily following your treatment.
- Skip retinols or exfoliating products for 2–3 days afterward.
- Use gentle cleansers and hydrating products to support healing.
- Schedule monthly treatments to maintain a healthy, radiant glow.
There is no downtime, and you can return to work or events immediately
