Dermaplaning

About This Treatment

Dermaplaning is a precise manual exfoliation technique that uses a sterile surgical scalpel to gently remove the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the face. This treatment instantly reveals a smoother, brighter complexion and creates an ideal canvas for skincare products and makeup application. The removal of the dead skin barrier allows serums and moisturizers to penetrate more deeply and work more effectively. Dermaplaning is safe for most skin types and can be performed every three to four weeks for ongoing skin refinement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the hair grow back thicker or darker after dermaplaning?
No — this is one of the most common myths about dermaplaning. The fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) removed during treatment grows back exactly as it was, with the same soft texture and light color. Dermaplaning removes hair at the surface, not the root, so it does not change how your hair grows. Your skin simply looks smoother and brighter. Our Coquitlam, BC aestheticians perform dermaplaning safely with a sterile blade for flawless results.
Is dermaplaning safe, and who should avoid it?
Dermaplaning is a gentle, safe treatment for most skin types when performed by a trained professional. However, we generally recommend avoiding it if you have active acne breakouts, cystic acne, or certain skin conditions, as it can irritate inflamed skin. During your consultation at our Coquitlam clinic, our aestheticians assess your skin to confirm dermaplaning is right for you and recommend alternatives if needed.
How often should I get dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning can be performed every three to four weeks, which aligns with your skin’s natural cell turnover cycle. Regular treatments keep your complexion smooth and radiant and maintain the ideal canvas for skincare and makeup. Our Coquitlam, BC aestheticians will recommend a schedule based on your skin type and goals, and dermaplaning can be combined with facials or other treatments for enhanced results.
Is there any downtime after dermaplaning?
There is no downtime after dermaplaning — you can return to your normal activities immediately. Your skin may look slightly pink for a short time and will feel noticeably smoother right away. Because the treatment removes the outer layer of dead skin, we recommend applying sunscreen diligently afterward, as your fresh skin is more exposed. Our Coquitlam clinic provides simple aftercare tips to keep your skin glowing.
