The Benefits of Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is safe for most skin types and offers numerous aesthetic benefits. This gentle treatment is especially helpful for those seeking a smoother skin texture and a fresh, healthy glow. Here are just a few reasons our patients love dermaplaning:
- Removes dead skin cells for a brighter, more radiant complexion.
- Eliminates peach fuzz on the face, chin, and jawline.
- Improves product absorption by removing barriers on the skin’s surface.
- Enhances the results of professional treatments, such as facials and peels.
- Creates a smooth base for even makeup application.
This painless, quick treatment is ideal for those who want to maintain a vibrant appearance with minimal downtime.
Dermaplaning for Sensitive Skin
Dermaplaning is gentle enough for most sensitive skin types. Unlike some exfoliation treatments that use chemicals or abrasive techniques, dermaplaning does not involve heat or harsh ingredients. This makes it a smart choice for individuals who may be sensitive to irritation from other exfoliation methods. Our experienced providers assess your skin before treatment to ensure it’s the right fit for you.
Dermaplaning for Men
While traditionally more popular among women, dermaplaning offers the same benefits for men. It’s especially helpful for removing dull skin buildup and reducing the appearance of fine lines. By removing the outer layer of skin, dermaplaning helps men achieve a more refreshed and smooth appearance, allowing their skincare products to work more effectively.
How to Prepare for Your Dermaplaning Appointment
To get the most out of your dermaplaning treatment, here are a few simple steps to follow beforehand:
- Avoid sun exposure or tanning beds for at least 3 days before treatment.
- Discontinue retinoids or exfoliants 3 to 5 days prior.
- Come to your appointment with a clean, makeup-free face.
- Let your provider know about any recent breakouts or skin sensitivities you've had.
Following these steps will help ensure optimal results and a smooth treatment experience.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dermaplaning
Is there any downtime?
No. Dermaplaning is a non-invasive treatment with no required downtime. You can resume your normal activities immediately after your appointment.
Will my hair grow back thicker or darker?
No, dermaplaning does not alter hair growth. The fine vellus hair will grow back at the same rate and with the same texture as before.
How much does dermaplaning cost?
Costs vary depending on whether dermaplaning is combined with other services. Contact our team for current pricing and package options.
How often should I schedule dermaplaning treatments?
Many patients choose to receive dermaplaning every 4 to 6 weeks for the best results. Our team can help you develop a personalized plan based on your skin’s needs.
Can dermaplaning improve acne scars or uneven skin texture?
Yes, while dermaplaning won’t treat active acne, it can help smooth out superficial acne scars and enhance overall skin tone and texture.
What’s the difference between dermaplaning and microdermabrasion?
Dermaplaning uses a sterile blade to manually exfoliate the skin, while microdermabrasion uses a machine with fine crystals to exfoliate. Both are effective but offer slightly different benefits.
