Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning works by using a sterile surgical blade to gently scrape away the outer layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the skin’s surface. This process, known as manual exfoliation, reveals smoother, more radiant skin and can enhance the penetration of skincare products. The procedure is non-invasive and provides immediate and noticeable results without downtime.

The ideal candidate for dermaplaning is someone looking to improve the texture and radiance of their skin. They typically have concerns related to fine lines, mild wrinkles, or uneven skin tone. Candidates should be in good overall health, without active skin infections or severe acne outbreaks. Dermaplaning is generally suitable for all skin types and tones and is safe for pregnant women, making it a versatile option for individuals seeking a non-invasive exfoliation treatment with minimal downtime.

The number of treatments depends on your skin and your skin goals. For maintenance and general exfoliation, some people may choose to have dermaplaning performed every 4 to 6 weeks. Dermaplaning is a great addition to any skin care routine. Add it on to any of our signature facials for an enhanced effect.
