What is Dermaplane?
Dermaplaning is a specially designed exfoliation treatment that uses an aesthetician’s razor to gently shave off dead skin cells and vellus hair (more commonly known as peach fuzz). This allows for a smoother surface and enhances other skincare products used afterwards. The procedure leaves your skin refreshed, radiant, and better primed and ready for makeup application. But there are even more benefits to be found with this amazing skincare technique!

The Procedure
During a dermaplaning session at Austin Skin Bar Med Spa, our experienced estheticians will begin by thoroughly cleansing your skin to remove any makeup, oil, or impurities. Next, they will use a sterile surgical scalpel held at a 45-degree angle to gently scrape away the top layer of dead skin cells and fine hair.
The entire procedure typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes and is painless. Most clients describe the sensation as a gentle scraping or brushing, similar to the feeling of shaving. After the dermaplaning is complete, a soothing serum and moisturizer are applied to calm and hydrate your skin.
Aftercare
Following your dermaplaning treatment, it is important to take care of your skin to maintain the results and promote healing. Here are some aftercare tips:
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun after dermaplaning, so it’s crucial to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily. This will protect your skin from harmful UV rays and prevent hyperpigmentation.
- Hydrate: Keep your skin well-hydrated by using a gentle, hydrating moisturizer. This will help maintain the smoothness and softness achieved through the treatment.
- Avoid Harsh Products: For the first few days after your treatment, avoid using harsh exfoliants or active ingredients like retinol and glycolic acid. These can irritate your freshly exfoliated skin.
- Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild cleanser to wash your face, and avoid scrubbing or using rough washcloths. Be gentle with your skin to prevent irritation.
Ideal Candidates for Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is suitable for a wide range of skin types and concerns. However, it is particularly beneficial for those who:
- Have Dull or Uneven Skin Tone: Dermaplaning helps to reveal a brighter, more even complexion by removing dead skin cells and peach fuzz.
- Experience Dry or Dehydrated Skin: By eliminating the top layer of dead skin, dermaplaning allows for better absorption of hydrating products, helping to combat dryness.
- Want to Reduce the Appearance of Fine Lines and Wrinkles: The exfoliation process smooths out the skin’s surface, reducing the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Have Congested Pores or Acne Scarring: Dermaplaning can help to clear out clogged pores and improve the appearance of superficial acne scars.
- Wear Makeup Regularly: Dermaplaning creates a smooth canvas for makeup application, ensuring a flawless finish.
