Dermaplaning: Reveal Smoother, Radiant Skin

Dermaplaning is a gentle exfoliation technique that removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, also known as “peach fuzz,” from the surface of the skin. This treatment leaves your skin smoother, brighter, and better prepared to absorb skincare products for a flawless, radiant complexion.

What Is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a noninvasive skin treatment that uses a sterile surgical blade to gently scrape away dead skin cells and fine vellus hair from the surface of the skin. The process provides deep exfoliation, revealing fresh, healthy skin underneath. Dermaplaning is ideal for individuals looking to improve skin texture, minimize the appearance of fine lines, and enhance the effectiveness of their skincare products. The treatment is safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin, and can be performed on the face, neck, and other areas. It is a quick, painless procedure with no downtime, making it perfect for those seeking an instant glow without irritation.

How Does Dermaplaning Work?

During a dermaplaning session, a trained professional uses a specialized surgical blade to gently exfoliate the skin by removing dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. The blade is carefully guided across the surface of the skin at a 45-degree angle, allowing it to efficiently scrape away the top layer of dead skin without causing irritation or damage. The removal of this outer layer not only leaves the skin looking smoother and more radiant but also helps skincare products penetrate deeper into the skin for enhanced results. The treatment is quick, taking about 30 minutes, and there is no downtime, allowing you to enjoy immediate benefits.
