Dermaplane
Reveal Smoother, Brighter Skin
I gently exfoliate away dead skin cells and fine vellus hair with dermaplaning, leaving your skin remarkably smooth, radiant, and ready to glow, with zero downtime.
Why Dermaplane
Benefits of Dermaplaning
A quick, gentle treatment with instant, visible results and absolutely no downtime.
Instant Exfoliation
A sterile blade gently sweeps away the top layer of dead skin cells, revealing brighter, smoother skin immediately.
Removes Peach Fuzz
Fine vellus facial hair is removed for a flawlessly smooth canvas, and makeup glides on more evenly afterward.
Instant, Visible Glow
There’s no downtime — you’ll walk out with brighter, smoother, more radiant skin right away.
Safe for Most Skin Types
Dermaplaning is gentle enough for sensitive skin and safe for those who can’t tolerate chemical exfoliants.
Enhances Product Absorption
With dead skin cleared away, your serums and moisturizers penetrate deeper and work more effectively.
Improves Skin Texture
Regular treatments smooth out rough patches and refine texture for a soft, even-toned complexion.
The Process
How It Works
A relaxing, four-step treatment that leaves your skin smooth, bright, and glowing.
01
Consultation
I review your skin type, goals, and any sensitivities to confirm dermaplaning is the right fit for you.
02
Cleanse & Prep
Your skin is thoroughly cleansed so the surface is completely clean and dry before we begin.
03
Dermaplane the Skin
Using a sterile surgical blade at a gentle angle, I glide across your skin to lift away dead cells and fine hair.
04
Soothe & Hydrate
A calming serum and moisturizer are applied to hydrate and protect your newly smoothed skin.

Aftercare
What Can I Expect After Treatment?
Here’s what a typical dermaplaning appointment looks like afterward, and how to keep your results glowing.
Instant Smoothness & Glow
Your skin will feel remarkably soft and look brighter right away — there’s no downtime or visible peeling.
Avoid Sun Exposure
Freshly exfoliated skin is more sun-sensitive, so wear SPF daily and limit direct sun for a few days after treatment.
Keep Skin Hydrated
Use a gentle moisturizer to support your skin barrier while it renews itself over the following days.
Maintain with Regular Visits
Vellus hair and dead skin regenerate over time — I recommend a treatment every 3–4 weeks to maintain your glow.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before booking your dermaplaning appointment.
What is dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a gentle exfoliation treatment where I use a sterile surgical blade to carefully remove the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) from your face, revealing smoother, brighter skin.
Does dermaplaning hurt?
No, dermaplaning is completely painless. Most clients describe the sensation as similar to a gentle scraping, and many find the treatment relaxing.
Will my hair grow back thicker or darker?
No, this is a common myth. Dermaplaning only removes fine vellus hair, and shaving it does not change its thickness, color, or rate of regrowth.
Is there any downtime?
None at all. You can apply makeup and return to your normal routine immediately after treatment — your skin will simply look smoother and more radiant.
How often should I get dermaplaning done?
I typically recommend a treatment every 3–4 weeks, which aligns with your skin’s natural cell turnover cycle, to keep your complexion consistently smooth and glowing.
Can dermaplaning be combined with other treatments?
Yes, dermaplaning pairs beautifully with facials, chemical peels, and HydraFacials since removing dead skin and fine hair allows other products and treatments to penetrate more effectively.
