Reveal smoother, brighter skin with dermaplaning at Northwest Beauty & Wellness. This gentle exfoliation treatment removes dead skin cells and peach fuzz, helping to improve texture, soften fine lines, and enhance product absorption. If you’re craving a fresh, radiant glow without downtime, dermaplaning is a simple, effective way to refresh your complexion.
Exfoliate Dead Skin Cells and Remove Peach Fuzz
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliating treatment that uses a sterile surgical blade to gently remove the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz). This instantly smooths and brightens your complexion, allowing skincare products to penetrate more effectively and makeup to apply more evenly. Safe for most skin types, dermaplaning is a relaxing, zero-downtime treatment that leaves your skin feeling soft, refreshed, and beautifully revitalized.
Dermaplaning Treats:
- Dull or lackluster skin tone
- Uneven skin texture
- Fine lines and early signs of aging
- Clogged pores and congestion
- Light acne scarring
- Dry or flaky patches
- Vellus hair (peach fuzz)
How Does Dermaplaning Work?
Dermaplaning works by using a sterile, medical-grade blade to gently scrape away the outermost layer of dead skin cells and fine facial hair. This physical exfoliation stimulates cellular turnover, revealing fresher, healthier skin beneath.
By removing this barrier, dermaplaning also allows skincare products to absorb more effectively into the skin. Unlike chemical exfoliants, dermaplaning is entirely mechanical, making it a safe option for sensitive skin.
Advantages of Dermaplaning:
- Instantly reveal smoother, brighter skin
- Improve overall skin texture and tone
- Enhance the absorption of skincare products
- Allow makeup to apply more evenly
- Safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin
- No downtime or recovery period needed
Your Dermaplaning Session
When you arrive for your dermaplaning session, we’ll begin by cleansing your skin to remove any oil or debris. Using a sterile, single-use surgical blade, your provider will gently glide across your skin in precise strokes to remove dead skin cells. You’ll feel a light scraping sensation, and the whole process takes 30 to 45 minutes. Afterward, we’ll apply soothing skincare products to hydrate and protect your freshly exfoliated skin. You’ll leave feeling refreshed.
Dermaplaning FAQs
Is Dermaplaning Safe for All Skin Types?
Yes, dermaplaning is safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin. However, if you have active acne, open wounds, or skin conditions like rosacea, we may recommend an alternative treatment. We’ll assess your skin during your consultation to ensure the right fit.
Will My Facial Hair Grow Back Thicker or Darker?
No—this is a common myth. Dermaplaning only removes vellus hair (peach fuzz), which grows back at the same color and texture as before. It will not become coarser or darker.
How Often Should I Get Dermaplaning?
Most clients benefit from a dermaplaning session every four to six weeks. This aligns with your skin’s natural renewal cycle, helping to maintain a consistently smooth and radiant complexion. Your provider will help you decide what’s best for your skin goals.
Is There Any Downtime After the Treatment?
Nope! Dermaplaning is a zero-downtime procedure. You may experience mild redness after your session, but only for a few hours. You can return to your normal routine right away.
Is There Any Downtime After the Treatment?
Yes—you can wear makeup after treatment, and many clients find that it applies more smoothly. However, we often recommend letting your skin breathe for the rest of the day if possible.
Can I Combine Dermaplaning With Other Treatments?
Absolutely. Dermaplaning pairs beautifully with facials, chemical peels, or DiamondGlow® to boost results. We’ll tailor a treatment plan based on your skin’s needs and your goals.
