Dermaplaning is an exfoliation treatment that involves gently scraping the face with medical-grade scalper to remove the very top layer of skin. The shave removes both dead skin cells and the fine vellus hair that are known as peach fuzz, leaving the surface of the face ultra smooth. By stimulating the development of new skin cells, this type of exfoliation - sometimes called a scalpel facial - helps new skin rise to the surface. It leaves patients with a more youthful and dewy face, but without any harsh chemicals, excessive downtime, or pain.
Smoother Skin Texture: Removes rough, uneven skin, leaving it soft and silky.
• Glowing Complexion: Enhances natural radiance by clearing away dull, dead skin cells.
• Better Product Absorption: Improves the effectiveness of serums and moisturizers.
• Flawless Makeup Application: Creates a smooth canvas for makeup to glide on effortlessly.
• Reduction in Fine Lines: Gently minimizes the appearance of fine lines over time.
• Non-Irritating: Safe for most skin types, even those sensitive to chemical exfoliation.
1. Preparation:
-
The skin is thoroughly cleansed and dried to remove any oils, makeup, or impurities.
-
A gentle toner may be applied to ensure the skin is clean and ready for treatment.
2. The Procedure:
-
A skilled professional uses a sterile, surgical-grade blade held at a precise angle.
-
The blade is gently glided across the skin’s surface in short, controlled strokes to scrape away dead skin cells and fine hair.
-
This process does not cut or harm the skin but effectively removes the outermost layer.
3. After the Procedure:
-
The skin is soothed with hydrating serums, moisturizers, and sun protection.
-
No downtime is needed, though it’s essential to avoid direct sun exposure and use sunscreen diligently after treatment.

Dermaplaning + Hydrafacial

By combining dermaplaning with other treatments, clients achieve a multi-layered approach to skin rejuvenation, tailored to their unique needs and goals.
Pre-Treatment Care
1. Avoid Exfoliants: Stop using chemical exfoliants (like retinol, AHAs, BHAs, or scrubs) at least 3-5 days before your appointment.
2. Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your skin from the sun and avoid tanning beds for at least a week before treatment.
3. Discontinue Certain Products: Avoid harsh products, such as acne treatments or prescription topicals, for about a week before the procedure.
4. Hydrate Skin: Ensure your skin is well-moisturized but not oily. Avoid heavy creams on the day of the treatment.
5. Inform Your Provider: Notify your esthetician about any skin sensitivities, conditions (like rosacea or active acne), or medications you are taking.
6. Shave Carefully: Avoid shaving your face 48 hours before the treatment.
Post-Treatment Care
1. Protect Your Skin: Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher daily to protect the fresh skin from UV damage, as it will be more sensitive post-treatment.
2. Avoid Heat and Sweat: Steer clear of saunas, steam rooms, and intense workouts for 24-48 hours to prevent irritation.
3. Skip Harsh Products: Avoid retinol, AHAs, BHAs, and exfoliating scrubs for 5-7 days after the procedure.
4. Hydrate: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to maintain skin’s moisture barrier and promote healing.
5. Do Not Touch or Pick: Avoid touching your face excessively and refrain from picking at any flaking skin.
6. Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild, non-foaming cleanser for the first few days to avoid irritation.
7. Delay Certain Treatments: Wait 7-10 days before undergoing other facial treatments like chemical peels or laser therapies.
For optimal results, dermaplaning is recommended every 4-6 weeks, as this aligns with the natural skin cell turnover cycle.
