The basics

What is dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a skincare treatment in which a specialist uses a surgical-grade blade to gently shave away peach fuzz and dead skin cells, revealing smoother, brighter skin underneath.

It’s quick, painless, and suitable for almost everyone — a simple way to reset your skin’s texture and glow with zero downtime.

How it works

Using a sterile surgical scalpel, your provider carefully scrapes away the outermost layer of skin. This gentle exfoliation encourages cell turnover and improves texture and radiance — no needles, no downtime.

The process

Gentle, precise, painless

Your provider holds your skin taut and glides a sterile, surgical-grade blade across the surface at just the right angle — lifting away fine hair and dead skin in smooth, careful passes.

Most people feel only a light scraping sensation, and the whole treatment takes just minutes. You’ll walk out with immediately smoother, more radiant skin.

Common questions

Is dermaplaning safe?
Yes — when performed by a trained, certified professional, it’s non-invasive and suitable for most skin types and tones.
Will my hair grow back thicker or darker?
No — this is a common myth. Dermaplaning removes soft vellus hair (peach fuzz), which grows back exactly as it was before, same texture and color.
How often should I get it?
Many clients come every 3–4 weeks to maintain smooth, radiant skin, but your provider will tailor the timing to your skin’s needs.
Is there any downtime?
None. You might notice mild redness right after, which usually subsides within a few hours.
When will I see results?
Immediately — your skin looks and feels smoother and more radiant right away, and makeup goes on beautifully.
Does it hurt?
Not at all. It’s painless and well tolerated — some people notice a light scraping sensation during the treatment.
Who is a good candidate?
Most people wanting smoother texture, a healthy glow, and better product absorption. A quick consultation confirms it’s right for you.
