Exfoliation Treatments
Dermaplaning
Description
Experience a radiant complexion with dermaplaning—a technique that utilizes a gentle scraping motion using a surgical blade to remove dead skin cells and fine facial hair. Following the treatment, the skin appears visibly smoother and more radiant. Dermaplaning exfoliates and revitalizes the skin by eliminating the layer of hyperkeratosis (dead skin cells) and vellus hair (peach fuzz) commonly found on our faces. This procedure aids in treating various skin concerns such as sun damage, hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, age spots, and more. We finish with our mildest chemical peel, leaving your canvas refreshed and radiant. Dermaplaning is particularly beneficial for individuals with dull, dry, rough, or uneven skin texture. Dermaplaning can be seamlessly integrated with laser treatments or HydraFacials for enhanced results. It is important to note that this treatment is not recommended for individuals with active acne or extremely oily skin.

How It Works
Dermaplaning uses a gentle scraping motion to free your skin of dead skin cells and fine facial hair. Skin is more radiant and visibly smoother following treatment. By eliminating the layer of hyperkeratosis (dead skin cells) and the peach fuzz we all have on our faces, dermaplaning exfoliates and rejuvenates skin.

What is the procedure like?
Your dermaplaning specialist will use a tiny surgical blade to eliminate dead skin cells and fine hair. Most patients are very comfortable throughout the treatment. Dermaplaning may feel similar to shaving or scraping along the skin. This treatment is not painful.
How many treatments will I need?
Regular treatments are recommended every four to five weeks.
How long does a treatment last?
Dead skin cells can build up again within four to five weeks following treatment, which is why we recommend regular treatments. The positive effects on your complexion can be long-lasting.
What can I expect after my procedure?
You may experience some redness directly following treatment, but can get right back to your regular schedule without delay. Skin will feel smooth and radiant once the redness subsides.
