What Is a Dermaplane Facial?
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique that uses a sterile blade to gently remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, commonly known as "peach fuzz," from the skin's surface. The procedure is performed by a trained provider in a controlled clinical setting and is typically combined with cleansing, selected serums, and finishing skincare as part of a complete facial protocol.
For additional information about the procedure, see the ASDS guidance on dermaplaning.
What the Dermaplane Facial May Help With
A Dermaplane Facial may help improve the appearance and feel of:
Dull, flaky skin that may benefit from exfoliation
Fine vellus hair ("peach fuzz") on the face
Rough surface texture
Makeup application by creating a smoother skin surface
Skin that needs a refreshed appearance before an event
For clients seeking a more intensive pre-event refresh, a Carbon Laser Facial (Hollywood Peel) may be another option to discuss during consultation. Treatment selection depends on your skin concerns, goals, and provider assessment.

What to Expect During Your Dermaplane Facial
1. Cleanse. Your treatment begins with a thorough double cleanse to prepare the skin.
2. Dermaplane pass. Your provider uses a sterile blade at a controlled angle to gently exfoliate the skin and remove fine vellus hair.
3. Active serum application. Skincare products are selected according to your skin's needs and treatment goals.
4. Masque and finish. A customized masque, moisturizer, and mineral SPF complete the treatment.
For clients who need additional calming skincare support, an LED Facial for calming support may be another option to discuss with their provider. Suitability depends on individual skin concerns and the treatment plan.
Common Myths About Dermaplaning
"The hair will grow back thicker and darker."
Dermaplaning does not change the natural thickness, color, or growth rate of hair. As vellus hair grows back, it may feel slightly different at first, but the procedure does not make it grow back thicker or darker.
"Dermaplaning is just shaving."
Although both methods use a blade to remove hair, professional dermaplaning uses a specific technique to exfoliate surface dead skin cells as well as remove fine facial hair. The procedure should be performed by a trained provider using appropriate sterile equipment.
Typical Protocol
Many clients schedule Dermaplane Facials monthly for ongoing maintenance, while others book sessions before special events. Treatment frequency is customized according to skin condition, tolerance, and skincare goals.
For regular facial care between dermaplaning sessions, a Signature Facial for monthly maintenance may also be worth considering. Your provider can help determine a suitable schedule based on your skin's needs.
