Candidates

This is ideal for patients with fine lines or uneven skin tone or for women who have extra “peach fuzz” on their faces, because it can be a pain free alternative to tweezing or waxing. Thin or vellus hair often attracts a buildup of oils and can collect layers of dirt. So scraping away the hair reveals cleaner looking skin. Dermaplaning is also a perfect treatment for pregnant and nursing women looking for skin exfoliation but have been instructed by their doctor to stay away from chemical peel solutions.

Complementary Procedures

Dermaplaning is a great complementary procedure to combine with Chemical Peels. The gentle physical exfoliation done with a surgical blade means that your skin revealed and is ready for treatment.
