Dermaplaning uses a sterile surgical scalpel to gently scrape away the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, also known as peach fuzz. Think of it like shaving, but much more precise and performed by a trained professional. The blade glides across your skin at a 45-degree angle, removing the buildup that makes your complexion look dull and feel rough.
The treatment is performed on dry, clean skin. Your provider holds your skin taut and uses light, feathering strokes to carefully remove the dead cells and hair. The process is methodical and thorough, covering your entire face except for the delicate eye area. There is no cutting, scraping, or discomfort. The blade only removes what is already dead on the surface.
While peach fuzz is completely normal and natural, it can trap dirt, oil, and dead skin cells against your face. This buildup can make your skin look dull and cause your makeup to sit unevenly on the surface rather than blending smoothly.
Removing peach fuzz allows light to reflect off your skin more evenly, creating a brighter, more radiant appearance. Your skincare products can also penetrate better without the barrier of hair and dead cells in the way. Plus, makeup glides on like butter and looks more natural and polished when applied to smooth, hair-free skin.
Dermaplaning addresses several common skin concerns at once, making it an efficient and effective treatment for many people:
Your dermaplaning treatment begins with a thorough cleansing to remove all traces of makeup, oil, and dirt. Your skin needs to be completely clean and dry for the treatment to work effectively. Once your skin is prepped, your provider will begin the dermaplaning process.
You will feel a gentle scraping sensation as the blade moves across your skin. Most people find this feeling quite relaxing and even satisfying. There is no pain, stinging, or discomfort. Many clients say it feels similar to shaving their legs, just on their face. The entire treatment takes about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
After dermaplaning, your skin will feel incredibly smooth and look noticeably brighter. There is no redness, swelling, or irritation. You can return to your normal activities immediately. In fact, many people schedule dermaplaning appointments during their lunch break and return to work with glowing, fresh-looking skin.
The best part about dermaplaning is how quickly you see results. As soon as your treatment is complete, you will notice several immediate improvements:
While dermaplaning provides instant results, regular treatments offer even more benefits over time. When performed every 3 to 4 weeks, dermaplaning helps maintain smooth, bright skin consistently. Regular exfoliation encourages cell turnover, which means your skin continues to look fresh and youthful. Many people also notice that their fine lines become less noticeable over time because their skin stays hydrated and smooth rather than dry and rough. Chemical peel treatments near you(opens in a new tab) can further support skin resurfacing and long-term skin renewal for uneven texture and discoloration.
No, this is a common myth. Shaving or removing hair does not change how it grows back, no matter where on your body the hair is located. Dermaplaning removes fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) from your face. When this hair grows back, it will be exactly the same texture, color, and thickness as before.
The hair may feel slightly stubbier for the first few days after treatment because the blade creates a blunt tip instead of the naturally tapered end. This blunt edge can feel different when you touch it, but it is not actually thicker or coarser. Within a few days, the hair softens and feels completely normal again.
For best results, schedule dermaplaning every 3 to 4 weeks. This timing aligns with your skin's natural renewal cycle, allowing enough time for new dead skin cells to accumulate and the vellus hair to grow back. Getting treatments too frequently can over-exfoliate your skin and cause irritation. Some people with slower hair growth can stretch to 5 or 6 weeks between treatments. During your appointment, your provider can help you determine the ideal schedule based on how quickly your skin regenerates and your hair grows.
We recommend waiting at least a few hours if possible to give your skin time to breathe and settle. Your pores are clear and open after treatment, so giving them a short break before applying makeup is ideal.
