Dermapeels
Treatment & Results
Dermaplaning treatments involve the practitioner using a scalpel at an angle on the skin to lightly scrape off the dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, commonly known as “peach fuzz.” The treatment time usually takes less than an hour, and results are immediate. Follow up treatments are recommended to be spaced at least a month apart — more if your skin is on the sensitive side.Post Care
Your fresh skin may be more sensitive after a dermaplaning treatment, so it’s important to be gentle with it and avoid sun exposure for the first few days. Your practitioner may recommend specific products for your skin care routine post-procedure as well. It’s best to avoid waxing or getting other skin care treatments for at least the first week.What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a means of mechanical exfoliation. A medical-grade tool is used to gently scrape along the top layer of skin to remove dead skin buildup as well as vellus hair (i.e. “peach fuzz”).How Long Will Results Last?
Most clients will see results for approximately 3-4 weeks. It takes the skin about 28 days to go through a skin cycle before you can receive a dermaplaning treatment again.Contact us

Unfortunately, we do not recommend dermaplaning for clients who are suffering from acne. Instead, we recommend a good home care regimen and a series of facials and/or chemical peels to control the acne. Once acne is under control you can then dermaplane the skin.
Yes! Dermaplaning the skin is one of our favorite treatments for pregnant or breastfeeding clients since it is a very gentle and mild form of exfoliation.
