What is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliating treatment that uses a sterile surgical blade to gently remove dead skin cells and fine facial hair. This technique instantly reveals smoother, brighter skin and allows skincare products to absorb more effectively. It's a fast, painless way to improve skin texture and tone—no downtime required.

What to Expect During Dermaplaning

Your appointment begins with a gentle cleanse to remove surface oils and impurities. Our aesthetician will then use a sterile blade to gently exfoliate the top layer of your skin using light, controlled strokes. The treatment is painless and typically takes 30–45 minutes. It can be performed as a stand-alone service or combined with one of our custom facials for even more noticeable results.

Dermaplaning Results

There’s no recovery time needed after dermaplaning. Most clients notice an immediate improvement in skin smoothness and brightness. We recommend avoiding direct sun exposure and applying broad-spectrum sunscreen daily after treatment. For best results, dermaplaning can be repeated every 4–6 weeks to maintain your glow.
