DERMAPLANING
Reveal Smooth Skin with Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is a safe exfoliation procedure that removes the epidermis’s outer layer along with fine vellus hair, often called peach fuzz. Using a surgical blade with light feathering strokes, the therapist gently abrades the skin surface, revealing a smoother, more radiant complexion.
What to Expect
- Consultation to review skin concerns and suitability
- Skin cleansing and preparation
- Dermaplaning performed with a sterile scalpel using delicate strokes
- Removal of dead skin cells and vellus hair
- Application of a calming mask or serum to soothe and hydrate
- Advice on aftercare to support healing and maintain results
Why Choose Dermaplaning
- Quick procedure with few to no adverse effects
- Suitable for pregnant or nursing clients who cannot use chemical peels
- Ideal for those with excess vellus hair causing dirt and oil build-up
- Does not cause hair to grow back heavier or darker; vellus hair returns at the same rate and texture
- Immediate rejuvenation by removing the outermost layer of skin
- Enhances penetration of active ingredients in subsequent treatments, such as enzyme facials
- Provides a smooth canvas for professional or home makeup application
Key Benefits
- Smoother skin texture and a more even surface
- Reduction in the appearance of acne scarring, sun damage or hyperpigmentation, and fine lines
- Immediate glow with minimal or no downtime
- Safe option when chemical exfoliants are contraindicated
- Improved absorption of skincare products applied afterwards
Treatment Plan
Dermaplaning may be offered as a standalone treatment or combined with another facial. For example, following with an enzyme treatment can increase active ingredient penetration and leave skin silky smooth. Regular sessions every four to six weeks can help maintain results. If you have a special event, we recommend scheduling dermaplaning three to four days beforehand. For holiday preparation, consider it about a week before travel and use factor 50 sun cream while away to protect newly revealed skin.
Preparation and Aftercare
- Avoid strong exfoliants or retinoids for at least seven days before treatment
- Arrive with clean skin or light makeup if preferred
- Expect possible mild redness that typically subsides quickly
- Use gentle cleansers and hydrating products as advised
- Apply broad-spectrum sun protection daily, especially after treatment
- Keep in contact with your therapist if any concerns arise during recovery
Frequently Asked Questions
Is dermaplaning painful? Most clients find it comfortable. The light feathering strokes are gentle, and any mild sensitivity is eased by calming products applied afterwards.
How often should I have dermaplaning? Sessions every four to six weeks suit many clients, allowing vellus hair to regrow and skin to complete its renewal cycle. Your therapist will advise based on your skin’s response.
Will hair grow back thicker? No. Fine vellus hair returns at the same rate and texture as before treatment, without becoming darker or coarser.
Is there downtime? There is minimal or no downtime. You may notice slight redness that typically fades within hours.
Can I combine with other treatments? Yes. Dermaplaning pairs well with enzyme facials, masks and other non-chemical treatments. It creates a smooth surface for better absorption of active ingredients.
Is it safe during pregnancy or nursing? Yes. Because no chemical agents are absorbed, it is a suitable deep exfoliation for pregnant or nursing clients.
