How Does Dermaplaning Work?

Dermaplaning uses a blade to gently but powerfully exfoliate the topmost layer of your facial skin—removing dirt, oil, debris, hair, and dead skin cells from your face. The sterile blade is gently stroked against your skin at a 45-degree angle, exfoliating your face.

This treatment is administered in-house by one of our experienced medical estheticians and is designed to revitalize and resurface your facial skin in under one hour. Best of all, it is entirely painless. After your dermaplaning treatment in Long Beach, you will experience smooth, hair-free, radiant, and more youthful skin.

Dermaplaning is often combined with another treatment to improve its benefits. It pairs well with HydraFacial®chemical peels, and more.

Am I a Candidate for Dermaplaning?

Our dermaplaning procedure in Long Beach is safe and suitable for all skin types, shades, and tones. This non-invasive treatment does not use any laser, light, or heat energy, allowing it to treat almost anyone. Candidates should have reasonable expectations and understand dermaplaning’s risks and benefits. 

Although dermaplaning is one of our patient favorites, it is not suitable for everyone. A consultation allows Dr. Waltzman and his team of aesthetic nurses to determine whether this treatment is the most effective way to address your concerns.

Several products are on the market that promote dermaplaning at home by yourself. We strongly recommend against this. Dermaplaning should be completed by a trained professional in our practice in Long Beach; otherwise, you risk harming your skin, exposing it to infection, or even scarring.

What Does Dermaplaning Treat?

Dermaplaning is a perfect treatment for you if you have any of the following skin concerns or conditions:

  • Dirt, oil, and debris on the face
  • Dead skin cells
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Unwanted facial hair
  • Superficial skin concerns

What is Recovery Like After Dermaplaning?

This procedure requires almost no downtime or recovery time. Besides a small amount of redness that will subside within an hour or two, you will not experience any side effects preventing you from returning to work or your normal activities. Dermaplaning is the perfect procedure to book as a lunchtime pick-me-up.

We recommend you care for your skin post-treatment with a moisturizing skin care regimen and always wear SPF in the sun.
