Your skin works hard every day to protect you, but constant exposure to sun, makeup, and environmental pollutants can leave it looking dull and tired. Dermaplaning offers a safe and effective way to instantly refresh your complexion by removing dead skin cells and fine facial hair, revealing a smoother, brighter, and more radiant appearance.

At Advanced Aesthetics, we believe that healthy, radiant skin is the foundation of lasting confidence. Dermaplaning is one of our most popular non-invasive treatments, providing instant exfoliation and a smooth, glowing complexion with minimal downtime.

What Is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive treatment using a medical blade to exfoliate the skin. It also removes the hair from the face (vellus hair or “peach fuzz”), leaving the skin softer and smoother.

This process reveals a smoother, brighter complexion, creating the perfect canvas for skincare products and makeup. The procedure is performed by a licensed professional, who holds a sterile surgical blade at a precise angle and carefully guides it across the skin’s surface to lift away dead cells and fine hair.

Benefits of Dermaplaning

Book Your Consultation

Immediate Results

Dermaplaning delivers visible improvements immediately, leaving the skin smoother and softer after just one treatment. There’s no waiting period, so you’ll notice the refreshed glow as soon as you leave the office.

Quick Treatment

It is a quick procedure with few to no adverse effects. You can return to work, errands, or social activities the same day without any visible irritation.

Gentle Exfoliation

This treatment is safe even for sensitive skin that cannot tolerate harsh chemical peels or abrasive scrubs. The blade glides gently across the skin, removing buildup without causing discomfort or redness.

Improved Product Absorption

By removing dead skin cells and fine hair, dermaplaning clears the way for serums and moisturizers to penetrate more deeply. This enhances the effectiveness of your skincare routine and maximizes your investment in quality products.

What to Expect for Dermaplaning

01 • Before Your Appointment

Dermaplaning requires very little preparation, but a few simple steps will help ensure the best possible experience:

  • Avoid using retinol, exfoliating acids, or harsh scrubs for three to five days before treatment.
  • Refrain from direct sun exposure or tanning, as irritated skin may be more sensitive.
  • Do not schedule dermaplaning if you have active acne breakouts, cold sores, or open cuts.
  • Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin on the day of your appointment.

These small steps make the treatment safer, more comfortable, and more effective.

02 • Treatment

A typical dermaplaning session takes about 30 minutes. After cleansing and preparing the skin, your aesthetician uses a specialized blade at a precise angle to carefully remove dead skin and hair. The treatment is painless, often described as a light “scraping” sensation.

03 • Recovery and Aftercare

There is no downtime with this procedure, though some patients may experience mild redness or sensitivity immediately afterward. Patients should take care to apply sunscreen daily after this procedure to reduce the chance of hyperpigmentation. Patients should also avoid makeup for the first 24 hours, limit sun exposure, and use gentle skincare products until the skin fully settles.

Results typically last three to four weeks, as the skin naturally regenerates. Many patients choose to schedule dermaplaning monthly to maintain their glow.

Candidates for Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is suitable for nearly all skin types, including sensitive skin. This is a great treatment for patients who are not allowed to use peeling agents on their skin. It is also an excellent option for people who have excess vellum hair on the skin. Removing the vellum hair gives the patient healthier-looking skin. Dermaplaning can also be used for patients in preparation for other procedures, such as laser treatmentschemical peels, or facials.

FAQs

Will the hair grow back thicker or darker after dermaplaning?

No, dermaplaning does not change the thickness, color, or growth rate of vellus hair. The fine “peach fuzz” will return in the same texture it always has, which is one of the most common misconceptions about the treatment.

Is dermaplaning the same as shaving my face at home?

No. While both use a blade to remove hair, dermaplaning is performed by a licensed professional using a sterile, medical-grade surgical scalpel. This allows for a much closer, safer exfoliation that cannot be replicated with at-home tools.

Can men get dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is effective for both men and women, though it is typically performed on areas of the face without coarse beard growth. Many male clients use it to target the forehead, cheeks, and areas around the eyes.

Can dermaplaning cause breakouts?

Dermaplaning itself does not cause acne, but if the skin isn’t cared for properly afterward, clogged pores may develop. Using non-comedogenic products and following aftercare instructions helps prevent breakouts.

Does dermaplaning thin the skin?

No, dermaplaning does not make the skin thinner. It only removes the superficial dead cell layer on the surface, leaving the living layers of skin intact and healthy.
