What Does a Dermaplane Facial Do?
If you have ever wondered what a dermaplane facial actually does, the simple answer is this: dermaplaning exfoliates the surface of your skin while removing fine facial hair, commonly called peach fuzz.
The result is skin that immediately feels smoother and often appears brighter and more polished.
At DermaEnvy Skincare, professional dermaplaning is performed using a sterile handheld blade that gently removes accumulated dead skin cells and fine vellus hair from the face.
What Happens During Dermaplaning?
During a professional dermaplaning treatment, a trained skincare professional carefully passes a specialized blade across the surface of the skin.
This provides controlled physical exfoliation without relying on abrasive scrubs or strong exfoliating acids.
Dermaplaning can help:
Remove surface dead skin cells
Remove fine facial peach fuzz
Make skin feel softer and smoother
Improve the appearance of dull or uneven texture
Create a smoother surface for makeup
Refresh the appearance of dry or rough-looking skin
Because the results are visible quickly and there is generally minimal downtime, dermaplaning has become a popular facial treatment before special occasions as well as part of an ongoing skincare routine.
Does Dermaplaning Remove Peach Fuzz?
Yes. One of the main differences between dermaplaning and many other facial exfoliation treatments is that dermaplaning removes both dead surface skin and vellus hair, or peach fuzz.
And no, removing peach fuzz with dermaplaning does not cause it to grow back thicker or darker.
Hair characteristics are determined below the surface of the skin. Cutting vellus hair at the surface does not change the underlying follicle.
Does Your Face Look Different After Dermaplaning?
Many people notice their complexion looks immediately smoother and brighter.
Removing surface buildup can also create a more even canvas for foundation and other makeup products.
Dermaplaning does not fundamentally change the structure of your face. Instead, it improves the appearance and feel of its outermost surface.
Is Dermaplaning Good for Aging Skin?
Dermaplaning can be a particularly appealing treatment when skin starts feeling rougher, drier or duller.
It should not be confused with treatments designed to stimulate deeper collagen remodeling, such as microneedling. Instead, dermaplaning is primarily a surface exfoliation treatment.
Clients interested in more comprehensive skin rejuvenation may benefit from combining or alternating different professional treatments based on their skin goals.
How Often Can You Have a Dermaplane Facial?
How frequently you should receive dermaplaning depends on your skin, skincare routine and other treatments you receive.
Your skincare professional can recommend an appropriate schedule after assessing your skin.
Is Dermaplaning Worth It?
Dermaplaning may be worth considering if your main concerns include peach fuzz, dullness, rough texture or simply wanting your skin to feel exceptionally smooth.
At DermaEnvy Skincare, dermaplaning is one of several professional options available for improving skin texture and maintaining a brighter-looking complexion.
