Dermaplaning is performed on the face by a trained and qualified skin specialist and usually excludes the eye and nose areas. Dermaplaning is a refined approach to removing dead skin cells and vellus hair with a very sharp blade that should only be done by a professional.

As for your peach-fuzz hair, there’s no need to fear that this will grow back thicker after it’s been bladed. Unlike terminal hairs (like the hair on our legs) which is thicker, vellus hair will grow back to its original form. Your skin may feel a little sensitive straight after the session since it has been exfoliated, so you’ll want to ensure you use mineral sun protection for the days after your treatment.

Other than that, dermaplaning results are instant with no downtime, so your skin will be smoother and brighter straight after one session. It’s the perfect treatment to do the day or two before a big event for flawless and glowing makeup application.
