Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is an exfoliation technique that uses a sterile blade to slough off the outer layer of dead skin cells and hair. People of all skin tones and types can benefit from dermaplaning treatments at our metro Atlanta med spa located in Marietta. This safe, nonsurgical procedure requires no downtime and refreshes the skin for a vibrant, smooth appearance.

What It Treats

Dermaplaning reduces the appearance of:


  • Unwanted facial hair or “peach fuzz”
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Acne scars
  • Acne scars
  • Uneven texture



The result is soft, even skin. Many patients say removing peach fuzz allows for easier, more natural-looking makeup application.

What to Expect

Each Appointment lasts about 30 minutes. We’ll cleanse your skin and then painlessly glide a sterile blade along the surface to slough off the dead outer layer and remove any hair. Once the treatment is finished, you’ll be able to return to your daily activities immediately, though you may have some minor redness for a few hours.

Results

You’ll likely see fresh, vibrant skin immediately after your treatment. We typically recommend maintenance treatments every 3 to 4 weeks to keep dead skin and peach fuzz at bay. Despite the common myth, your hair won’t grow back thicker or darker after your treatment. As it gradually grows back, it will maintain its original color and thickness.


To complement the results of your treatment, you may consider combining it with Thermi® Smooth, microdermabrasion, or a chemical peel. When performed as a first step, dermaplaning allows these treatments to penetrate deeper into the skin and create more dramatic results.
