Are you tired of applying expensive makeup on your face only to have it settle poorly on your skin? Does your foundation seem to only enhance your fine lines and peach fuzz?
You’ve tried countless treatments and products, but nothing seems to work. Waxing hurts while shaving just seems to irritate your face. Microdermabrasion exfoliates your skin but doesn’t get rid of that annoying peach fuzz. You’ve looked for a solution for all these problems but haven’t been able to find one…
Well, look no further; dermaplaning may be the treatment of your skincare dreams! It’s one of the hottest skincare trends of 2019. Many celebrities rely on it to enhance their skin and give them that flawless makeup glow.
If you are interested in learning more about dermaplaning, check out this quick checklist below on the many benefits of dermaplaning to see if it’s the perfect solution for you.
What Is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is an exfoliation and hair removal procedure in which a scalpel is used to shave the top layer off your skin. An esthetician or dermatologist will perform this treatment by holding the scalpel at a 45-degree angle against your face. They will then scrape off any and all dead skin cells and peach fuzz.
Like microdermabrasion, dermaplaning accelerates the cell turnover process.
The 12 Benefits Of Dermaplaning
Now you know what dermaplaning is. Read on to learn more about its many benefits.
Exfoliation
By scraping off your skin’s top layer, dermaplaning exfoliates your skin. This helps even your skin tone and remove dirt and oils that can clog your pores and cause acne. This gives your skin that great healthy glow that everyone loves.
Safe And Painless
Dermaplaning is a completely safe and painless skincare treatment. Unlike waxing, you won’t be shrieking at in pain. The scalpel removes hair easily and painlessly. It is also completely safe. There are no chemicals being used. This makes it safe for pregnant women – who typically have to avoid many skincare treatments.
No Downtime
An awesome benefit of dermaplaning is that there is no downtime. You can walk out from your esthetician’s office and go straight to work. Other skincare treatments, like chemical peels and microneedling, can leave you with redness and peeling for days. Dermaplaning gives you an instant glow without any recovery time.
Smoother Makeup Application
Anyone with peach fuzz knows how frustrating it can be to apply foundation. Even when using the best makeup application tools, your peach fuzz can stand out for all to see. Because dermaplaning removes this hair as well as the top layer of dead skin cells, it smooths the appearance of your skin. This allows for a better and smoother makeup application.
Lightens Hyperpigmentation And Scarring
Because dermaplaning increases cell turnover, you’re likely to see any hyperpigmentation or post-acne scarring fade. As you receive more dermaplaning treatments, any marks or scars on your face should fade over time.
Helps With Product Penetration
Another great benefit of dermaplaning is that it helps increase product penetration. Often, many estheticians or dermatologists will perform dermaplaning before applying chemicals peels or other skincare treatments. This allows the other treatments to be more effective.

Removes Peach Fuzz
This is one of the more obvious benefits of dermaplaning. Shaving the top layer of your skin will shave your peach fuzz. No need to feel self-conscious about your mustache any longer!
Anti-Aging
Not only does dermaplaning exfoliate your skin which can help with aging but it also increases your collagen production. This helps decrease the number of fine lines and wrinkles.
No Dark Hair Regrowth
You don’t have to worry about your hair growing back darker or thicker with dermaplaning. Dermatologists have debunked that myth repeatedly.
Good For All Skin Types
Dermaplaning is great for all skin types, including those with sensitive skin. It’s not abrasive and doesn’t irritate. Many other exfoliation treatments can create havoc for those with sensitive skin, but dermaplaning doesn’t have any of these negative side effects.
Instant Results
One of the best benefits of dermaplaning is that the results are instant. Laser treatments and chemicals peels usually take days or even weeks to see the full results. That’s not the case with dermaplaning. You will walk out of the office with a glowing, healthy face.
Can Be Done Frequently
Dermaplaning can be performed once every 3 to 4 weeks. This means that clients can consistently see great results from this procedure without having to wait long periods of time between treatments.
Downsides Of Dermaplaning
While there many benefits, there are some negative side effects of dermaplaning.
- Active Acne – Anyone with active acne should avoid dermaplaning. It can aggravate existing acne and cause it to spread further along the face.
- Expensive – Compared to waxing, this is a more expensive hair removal procedure. However, dermaplaning does do more than just hair removal. It’s a skincare treatment in addition to a hair removal procedure.
- Not Advisable At Home – Despite many at-home dermaplaning kits on the market nowadays, it is not considered safe to perform this at home. It is best for a professional to perform this.
