Dermaplaning is a professional physical exfoliation technique that gently removes superficial dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the skin’s surface. It leaves the skin feeling smoother and softer, with a fresh, brighter-looking complexion and a more refined surface.
Benefits
• Smoother, softer skin • Brighter, more even-looking complexion • Improved appearance of dull, rough skin • Better spread and contact of topical skincare • A smooth, even canvas for makeup • Immediate surface-level radiance
Good to know: Dermaplaning does not make facial hair grow back thicker or darker.
