Dermaplaning
A quick, non-invasive exfoliation treatment that removes peach fuzz and dead skin cells, revealing smooth, radiant skin.

"Dermaplaning is the secret to flawlessly smooth skin and perfect makeup application. It instantly brightens the complexion by removing the barrier of dead skin and peach fuzz." - Senior Aesthetician, Linksfield Laser Clinic
What is dermaplaning?
The procedure of dermaplaning is an exfoliation process on the skin. It uses a surgical steel scalpel (dermaplaning tool) to lightly scrape the skin's surface as the technician holds it tight and close. The tool is held at a 45-degree angle to remove hair and skin cells and brush along the skin.
Dermaplanation is also a quick skin treatment, taking only 30 to 45 minutes, and is non-invasive. There is no prep or recovery time from having a dermaplaning treatment, so you can fit it into your schedule without compromising other commitments. Dermaplaning is usually performed every three to four weeks.
Who Can Benefit?
Just about any patient who wants to get rid of peach fuzz and other fine facial hairs, and who wants exfoliation, can benefit from this treatment. Because it is gentle and noninvasive, the treatment is also ideal for patients who have limitations that prevent them from seeking other treatments, including:
- Pregnant women
- Individuals with extra-sensitive skin
- Those who need to avoid the chemicals found in some other products and services
Can also be used in conjunction with a facial treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will dermaplaning make my hair grow back thicker?
No, this is a common myth. Dermaplaning does not change the structure or growth rate of your hair. Your vellus hair (peach fuzz) will grow back exactly as it was before.
Does dermaplaning hurt?
Not at all! Dermaplaning is a completely painless and non-invasive procedure. Most clients find it quite relaxing.
How often should I get dermaplaning done?
For optimal results, we recommend scheduling a dermaplaning session every 3 to 4 weeks to coincide with your skin's natural rejuvenation cycle.
