What is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation technique that uses a rounded surgical scalpel to gently scrape off the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (“peach fuzz”). This manual exfoliation process leaves your skin incredibly smooth and more receptive to skincare treatments and products, especially Hydrafacials. 

How It Works:

  • One of our nurses or estheticians uses a small, round-edged blade at a 45-degree angle to exfoliate the skin.

  • Dead cells and fine hair are removed in a painless, gentle process.

  • The treatment takes about 10-20 minutes and requires no downtime.

Why Combine Dermaplaning with a Hydrafacial?

Pairing dermaplaning with a hydrafacial enhances the overall impact of both treatments. Dermaplaning preps the skin by removing the outermost layer of dead skin and hair, allowing the hydrafacial’s serums and active ingredients to penetrate deeper and work more effectively to cleanse, exfoliate, extract impurities, and hydrate the skin.

Key Benefits of the Combo:

  • Enhanced Product Absorption: With the surface debris gone, serums can sink deeper into the skin.

  • Smoother Skin Texture: The dual exfoliation and hydration process leaves skin feeling baby-soft.

  • Instant Glow: Clients often notice a radiant complexion immediately after the treatment.

  • Improved Makeup Application: Smoother skin means your makeup applies more evenly and flawlessly.

  • Even Skin Tone: Combined exfoliation reduces the appearance of hyperpigmentation and sunspots.

  • Minimized Fine Lines: Hydration plumps the skin, helping soften the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
