Reveal smoother, brighter skin with dermaplaning at Skin Science Aesthetics. This gentle exfoliation treats dullness, peach fuzz, uneven texture, and clogged pores by removing dead skin and debris. Offered as a standalone dermaplaning facial or a customizable add-on, it enhances product absorption while delivering natural, refined results.
Smooth Texture and Boost Radiance
Dermaplaning is a professional exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile surgical blade to gently remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hair from the skin surface. This process helps improve skin texture, brightness, and clarity while reducing the appearance of dullness and congestion. By creating a smoother canvas, dermaplaning also enhances product absorption and allows makeup to apply more evenly, resulting in a naturally refreshed, polished look.
Dermaplaning is Typically Used For:
- Dull, lackluster skin
- Uneven skin texture
- Dry, flaky surface buildup
- Fine facial hair (peach fuzz)
- Mild congestion and clogged pores
- Rough makeup application
- Reduced skincare product absorption
How Does a Dermaplaning Facial Work?
Dermaplaning works by physically exfoliating the outermost layer of the skin, known as the stratum corneum. Using a sterile blade held at a precise angle, dead skin cells and fine vellus hair are gently removed from the surface. This exfoliation increases cell turnover, helping newer, healthier skin cells rise to the surface. By clearing this barrier, light reflects more evenly off the skin, making your complexion appear more radiant and smooth.
Primary Benefits of Dermaplaning:
- Immediate improvement in skin smoothness and brightness
- Non-invasive treatment with no downtime
- Safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin
- Enhances absorption of professional skincare products
- Creates a smoother base for makeup application
- Helps reduce surface congestion and buildup
- Complements and enhances other in-office treatments
Bonus Benefit: Boost the Results of Other Treatments!
Dermaplaning creates an ideal foundation for other aesthetic treatments by removing surface buildup that can block penetration. With the outer layer of dead skin cells cleared away, active ingredients from facials, peels, and professional skincare can absorb more effectively and work more efficiently. It also allows energy-based treatments to interact more evenly with the skin’s surface, resulting in more consistent outcomes and a smoother, more refined finish.

Dermaplaning FAQs
Will Dermaplaning Make My Hair Grow Back Thicker or Darker?
No, this is just a myth. Dermaplaning removes fine vellus hair from the skin’s surface without affecting the hair follicle, so your hair grows back at the same rate, color, and texture as before.
How Often Should I Get a Dermaplaning Facial?
Most people benefit from dermaplaning every four to six weeks, which aligns with the skin’s natural cell turnover cycle. That said, your skin type, goals, and the treatments you’re combining with dermaplaning will eventually determine the ideal frequency for you. We help guide timing to ensure consistent results without over-exfoliating your skin.
Will I Have Downtime After Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is known for little to no downtime, making it ideal when you’re preparing for a gala, charity event, or special occasion. Your skin may appear slightly pink after treatment, but this resolves quickly. Most patients leave with smoother, brighter skin and a flawless canvas for makeup the same day, making it perfect for a last-minute event prep.
