What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive facial treatment for removing the stratum corneum or the topmost layer of your skin, containing dead skin cells, dirt, and vellus hair, called “peach fuzz.” This process resurfaces healthier and more radiant skin by gently shaving your face with a fine surgical scalpel called a dermatome.
Dermaplaning is a helpful and painless method of exfoliating your skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and other skin impurities. Patients seeking relaxing solutions for removing deep-seated dirt in their pores might want to consider this procedure.
What Dermaplaning Can Do for Your Skin
Dermaplaning is a quick and convenient solution for giving your skin regular exfoliation and hydration, reducing the appearance of acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, and other skin impurities. It’s a painless method of removing the topmost layer of your skin without lengthy downtime and health risks. Dermaplaning is a recommended skin care treatment as it:
- Exfoliates the skin – dirt, dead skin cells, and other substances can build up in our pores, risking acne breakouts when clogged with sebum. Dermaplaning removes these to exfoliate your skin.
- Hydrates the skin – exfoliation from dermaplaning reveals healthier and more radiant skin, stimulating regeneration and collagen production for better hydration.
- Removes peach fuzz – the small tiny hair on the face called peach fuzz contributes to getting dirt and oil trapped in your pores, risking acne. It also makes your skin duller.
- Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles – resurfacing healthier skin and stimulating collagen production reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. While the procedure doesn’t entirely remove these signs of aging, it can keep them at bay and give your skin the right maintenance care.
- Allows other skin care products to penetrate the skin better – your at-home skin care products and makeup will penetrate and adhere better once the dead skin cells, dirt, and peach fuzz have been removed.
- Helpful for acne and acne scars – the procedure removes the topmost layer of the skin, helping reduce the appearance of scars as it helps resolve dullness and uneven skin tone. Its skin exfoliation also prevents acne breakouts, but you might not be advised to have this procedure if you have active acne.
Facial dermaplaning is one of the most reliable skincare treatments resolving many skin impurities topical skin products usually can’t remove. It’s an efficient option for regularly maintaining your skin and keeping it healthy and radiant.

FAQs About Facial Dermaplaning
Q: What are the risks that come with facial dermaplaning?
A: Facial dermaplaning usually comes with minimal risks as a non-invasive procedure, but like many beauty treatments, it’s still possible. Some risks from your facial dermaplaning treatment are:
- Skin irritation
- Acne breakouts
- Skin dryness
- Minor cuts
- Infection
- Scarring
These risks only happen at the hands of inexperienced practitioners or if a customer tries the procedure at home without ample preparation. The practitioner may have held the scalpel at the wrong angle or have pressed it too hard on your skin. Acne breakout from dermaplaning may also be caused by unsanitary tools or having active acne, allowing bacteria to spread to your face.
Q: Will shaved facial hair grow thicker?
A: No, the hair that grows out after your dermaplaning procedure won’t get thicker or darker — this is actually one of the common misconceptions about dermaplaning. The tiny hairs on your face will still have the same thickness and color once it’s grown after the treatment. It’ll only become darker and thicker if you experience hormonal changes or imbalances.
Q: How often can I have facial dermaplaning?
A: Customers may get facial dermaplaning once a month or once every 3 to 4 weeks to achieve the best results.
