Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive procedure for removing dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, also called “peach fuzz,” from the face. Using a sterile surgical blade, the practitioner gently scrapes the skin’s surface to reveal a smoother and more even complexion. This process helps to exfoliate the skin and enhances product absorption and makeup application. Dermaplaning is typically performed on the face, excluding the delicate skin around the eyes and lips, which can be combined with other skin care treatments for added benefits.

How Does Dermaplaning Work?
Dermaplaning gently removes the outermost vellus hair and dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. An experienced professional uses a sterile, single-use surgical blade held at a precise angle to scrape away these impurities. This controlled exfoliation process stimulates cell renewal, enhances skin texture, and promotes a brighter complexion.
By clearing away the buildup of dead cells and hair, dermaplaning makes skincare products work more effectively and creates a smooth base for makeup application. The treatment is non-invasive, painless, and customized to each client’s needs, making it a popular choice for achieving refreshed, healthy-looking skin.
