Achieve Silky-smooth Skin Texture

Dermaplaning is a gentle, non-invasive exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile medical-grade blade to carefully remove dead skin cells and fine facial hair (aka peach fuzz) from your skin. Don’t worry: it doesn’t hurt, and it won’t make hair grow back thicker. By clearing away that top layer of buildup, your skin can better absorb skincare products and makeup goes on smoother. It’s a quick, relaxing treatment that leaves your skin feeling soft and fresh.

How Dermaplaning Works

Dermaplaning works by using a sterile, medical-grade blade to gently scrape away the outermost layer of dead skin cells along with fine facial hair. This top layer of dead skin naturally builds up over time and can make skin look dull and feel rough. By removing it, the skin’s natural renewal process is supported, and fresh, healthy cells are revealed. Dermaplaning also allows skincare products to penetrate deeper into the skin, which can make them more effective over time.

Benefits of Dermaplaning:

  • Instantly smoother, softer-feeling skin
  • Brighter, more refreshed appearance
  • Better absorption of skincare products
  • Flawless makeup application
  • Gentle and non-invasive treatment
  • No downtime or recovery period
  • Suitable for most skin types

Your Dermaplaning Experience

Consultation

You’ll start by chatting one-on-one with one of our providers about your skin concerns, goals, and current skincare routine. We’ll take a close look at your skin, discuss what you’re hoping to improve, and make sure dermaplaning in Glendale, AZ is a good fit. You’ll also have time to ask questions (all of them, big or small). From there, we’ll walk you through what to expect before, during, and after treatment so you feel totally comfortable moving forward.

Treatment

Once you’re settled in, your skin is gently cleansed and prepped. One of our providers then uses a sterile, medical-grade blade held at a precise angle to carefully glide across the skin, removing dead cells and peach fuzz in controlled strokes. You’ll feel a scraping sensation, but it’s very comfortable. The treatment is precise, methodical, and surprisingly relaxing. Afterward, soothing products and SPF are applied to calm and protect your freshly exfoliated skin.

Recovery

Most people experience little to no side effects after dermaplaning. You may notice mild redness or slight sensitivity after treatment, which fades within a few hours. There’s no true downtime, so you can get back to your day immediately. We recommend avoiding exfoliants, retinoids, and active ingredients for about 24 hours and always wearing sunscreen. Your skin may feel a bit more sensitive to the sun for a day or two, but that’s about it.

Results

You’ll notice a smoother feel right after your dermaplaning treatment: no waiting required. Because your skin naturally sheds cells over time, the results typically last 3-4 weeks. Most people schedule treatments monthly to keep their skin consistently smooth and glowing. Dermaplaning can also be combined with other treatments for enhanced results.
