Dermaplaning facial
Silky-smooth skin starts here. Dermaplaning is a gentle, non-invasive exfoliation treatment that instantly removes dull, dead skin cells and fine “peach fuzz” (vellus hair) from the surface of the skin, revealing a brighter, softer, more refreshed complexion. Ending with a cooling masque for glass skin finish. As a standalone dermaplaning facial or dermaplaning can be added-on to our other facials!
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a professional exfoliation technique performed with a sterile, medical-grade blade that lightly sweeps across the skin’s surface. This carefully removes built-up dead skin and fine facial hair, helping your skin look smoother and glowier right away without harsh chemicals or downtime.
Benefits of Dermaplaning
Instantly smoother texture
Helps reduce the look of roughness and flakiness so makeup and skincare glide on evenly.
Better product penetration & absorption
By removing the barrier of dead skin, your homecare products can absorb more effectively making your skincare routine work harder for you.
Peach fuzz elimination
Removes fine facial hair so your skin feels extra soft and looks more radiant in photos and in person.
Brighter, more rejuvenated complexion
Reveals fresher skin and supports natural cell turnover for that healthy, polished glow.
Makeup looks flawless
Foundation sits smoother, blends easier, and looks more “airbrushed.”
Helps with congestion and dullness
Regular exfoliation can help reduce the appearance of buildup that contributes to a tired-looking complexion.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
Your dermaplaning facial is relaxing and results-focused. After a cleanse, dermaplaning is performed with light, feathered strokes. Depending on your skin’s need, extractions may be needed, then this is often followed by soothing, hydrating, and brightening skincare (and SPF to finish). Most clients notice an immediate glow and a silky feel right after the service.

Dermaplaning is great for most skin types, especially if you’re dealing with:

Commonly Asked Questions
Will my hair grow back thicker or darker?
No, dermaplaning does not change the color, thickness, or growth rate of your facial hair. It simply blunts the tip of the hair at the surface, which can feel different as it grows in.
Is there downtime?
Most clients have no downtime. You may experience a mild temporary pinkness color, but it typically subsides quickly.
Does it hurt?
Not at all, most people describe it as a light, gentle exfoliating sensation, and many find it relaxing.
