Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a gentle, non-invasive exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile surgical scalpel to remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz). Performed by trained medical professionals, this treatment reveals smoother, brighter skin with no downtime and typically takes just 30–45 minutes. By clearing away the outermost layer of buildup, dermaplaning enhances product absorption, creates a flawless base for makeup, and can improve the appearance of fine lines and uneven pigmentation over time.

Benefits:

Instantly smoother, more radiant skin
Removal of peach fuzz for a softer, brighter complexion
Improved absorption of skincare products
Makeup applies more evenly and smoothly
Helps minimize fine lines and mild hyperpigmentation

Proper post-care includes wearing SPF, avoiding heat exposure, and pausing other exfoliation methods as recommended.

Contraindications

Client safety is our top priority. Before treatment, each client completes a detailed medical history form to ensure dermaplaning is appropriate for their skin and health. Certain conditions or recent treatments may require waiting before proceeding.

Please inform your provider of any changes in your health or medications before each session.

Avoid or postpone dermaplaning if:

You’ve had Botox or fillers within the past 7 days (safe to dermaplane before injections).
You’re using Retin-A — discontinue 5 days before and after treatment.
You’ve recently had a chemical peel, laser, or IPL — wait 10–14+ days depending on skin condition and treatment depth.
You’re prone to hyperpigmentation (PIH) — use prescribed pre- and post-care for at least 2 weeks.
You have uncontrolled diabetes, active cancer treatments, or have used Accutane/Isotretinoin within 12 months (doctor’s approval required).
You take blood thinners, high doses of aspirin, or have bleeding disorders.
You have moderate to severe acne, cystic or pustular lesions, cold sores, sunburn, windburn, or inflamed skin — treatment should be delayed or adjusted.
You have moles or skin tags in the area — these will be avoided.
You’re experiencing high anxiety — a gentle facial may be recommended instead.

Our trained providers will assess your skin at every visit to ensure your safety, comfort, and best possible results.
