Dermaplaning is a non-invasive, exfoliating treatment that manually removes dead skin cells and vellus hair on the face. Before the treatment, your provider will use a gentle cleanser on your skin to remove any oil, bacteria and dirt. By holding the skin taut, a sterile 10-gauge blade is stroked across the skin at a 45-degree angle. This removes the top layer of damaged skin so newer skin under the surface is revealed.

Dermaplaning is a completely painless treatment! Although it involves the use of a scalpel, an incision is never made; the scalpel delicately glides just above the outermost layer of skin, removing any hair and dead skin cells in its path.
