What Is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a physical exfoliation method that uses a sterile surgical blade to gently scrape off the outermost layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz). This process helps rejuvenate the skin by promoting a smoother texture and a brighter tone. Many clients in Tucson choose dermaplaning as part of their regular skincare routine or before special events for an instant glow.

Benefits

  • Smoother, more even skin tone and texture

  • Enhanced absorption of skincare products

  • Removal of peach fuzz for a flawless makeup application

  • Safe and effective for most skin types

  • Immediate visible results with no downtime

You can also combine dermaplaning with other treatments such as chemical peels for enhanced exfoliation and glow.

Dermaplaning vs. Microdermabrasion: Which Is Better?

Both treatments are excellent options for exfoliation, but they work differently.

  • Dermaplaning is ideal for dry or sensitive skin and those looking to eliminate facial hair.

  • Microdermabrasion uses a suction and abrasion mechanism to unclog pores and exfoliate deeper layers.

Who Is a Good Candidate for this treatment?

Dermaplaning is suitable for nearly all skin types, except those with active or cystic acne. It’s especially beneficial for:

  • Clients with dry or dull skin

  • Pregnant or nursing individuals seeking chemical-free exfoliation

  • Those preparing for events or photoshoots

  • Anyone wanting to improve skin smoothness without irritation

What to Expect During the Procedure

This treatment is quick, painless, and often compared to the sensation of shaving.

  1. Your skin is thoroughly cleansed and dried.

  2. The aesthetician gently holds sections of skin taut and uses a surgical blade in short, swift strokes.

  3. The process takes around 20–30 minutes, leaving your skin glowing and refreshed.

Post-Treatment Care and Results

There is no downtime. You may notice slight redness, which typically fades within an hour. Aftercare includes applying sunscreen and avoiding harsh products for 24 hours. Your skin will appear instantly brighter and smoother, and results can last several weeks.

How Often Should You Get Dermaplaning?

Since dermaplaning removes up to 21 days’ worth of dead skin cells, we recommend treatments once every 3–4 weeks to maintain optimal results.
