Exfoliate Dead Skin Cells & Peach Fuzz
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation treatment that gently removes the top layer of dead skin cells and fine facial hair, commonly known as peach fuzz. Using a sterile surgical scalpel, your skincare professional glides the blade across your skin’s surface. This procedure promotes cell turnover, allowing skincare products to penetrate deeper and work more effectively. Dermaplaning helps improve skin texture, reduces the appearance of acne scars and fine lines, and creates a flawless base for makeup application, leaving skin refreshed and rejuvenated.

Is Dermaplaning Safe for All Skin Types?
Yes, dermaplaning is safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin. Since it doesn’t involve chemicals or harsh exfoliants, it’s particularly well-suited for those who may not tolerate peels or abrasive treatments. However, individuals with active acne, rosacea, or skin infections should avoid dermaplaning until their condition has cleared to prevent irritation or complications.
You May Be an Ideal Candidate for Dermaplaning If:
- You have dull, dry, or uneven skin texture
- You have peach fuzz (vellus hair) you’d like to remove
- You are looking for a non-invasive treatment with no downtime
- You are not currently experiencing active acne or skin infections
- You are not taking blood thinners or have a bleeding disorder
- You are not prone to keloids or have a history of hypertrophic scarring
- You want a safe exfoliation option for sensitive skin
What Happens During the Treatment?
During a dermaplaning treatment, your skincare professional will cleanse and prep your skin. Then, a sterile surgical scalpel is gently glided across your face at a 45-degree angle, carefully removing dead skin cells and fine facial hair (peach fuzz). The process is painless and feels similar to a gentle scraping sensation. The treatment usually takes 30 to 45 minutes. After the procedure, a hydrating serum or soothing mask may be applied to lock in moisture.
Is There Any Downtime After Dermaplaning?
One of the major benefits of dermaplaning is that there’s no downtime. Your skin may appear slightly pink right after treatment, but this will subside within a few hours. You can immediately return to your regular activities with glowing, refreshed skin!
How Often Should I Get Dermaplaning?
For best results, it is recommended to schedule dermaplaning every 4 to 6 weeks. This allows time for your skin’s natural cell turnover cycle while maintaining a smooth, glowing complexion. Your skincare provider can help you create a treatment plan based on your skin type and goals.
Will Dermaplaning Make My Hair Grow Back Thicker or Darker?
No, this is a common misconception. Dermaplaning only removes vellus hair, which grows back at the same rate, color, and texture. The hair will not become thicker or darker after treatment. Dermaplaning does not affect the hair follicles in a way that would alter hair growth patterns.
