If your skin feels dull, rough, or like your products aren't absorbing the way they should, dermaplaning might be your skin’s new best friend. The dermaplaning procedure removes dead skin cells and hair from your face by using an exfoliating blade. You can also call this procedure blading or microplaning. The purpose of dermaplaning is to smooth, rejuvenate, and revitalize your skin. It helps remove deep acne scarring and uneven pockmarks from your skin. This treatment is also used to get rid of the short, soft hairs on your face known as “peach fuzz.” Dermaplaning is usually performed with Hydrafacial treatments.

Dermaplaning is a physical exfoliation technique that uses a sterile, surgical-grade blade to gently scrape away the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (aka, peach fuzz). The result is a fresh, smooth surface that reflects light better and helps your products absorb more efficiently.
While it’s a quick treatment on its own, dermaplaning really shines when paired with other services, especially Hydrafacial, microneedling, or chemical peels. It clears the path for your skin to fully benefit from whatever comes next, giving you a deeper glow with less effort.
After a brief skin assessment, your 4esthetics specialist will begin by cleansing the face. Then, using light, feathered strokes, they’ll glide a sterile blade across your skin to remove dead skin and facial hair. The process is painless and can actually feel quite soothing, like a deep clean for your face.
The treatment typically takes about 30 minutes and doesn’t involve any downtime, so you can get back to your day right away with noticeably smoother, fresher skin.
“Dermaplaning is a great treatment to add on to any facial service. This removes the first layer of dead skin and will also remove some unwanted vellus hair (peach fuzz).”
- Lyndsy Egenhauser, LE
Eliminate Scars: It removes scar tissue and dead cells. It also removes other debris that may be making your skin’s surface look uneven.
Enhance Skin Glow: It clears away those damaged skin cells. As a result, newer skin cells regenerate.
Reduce Roughness: It removes those little, unwanted hairs on your face, making your face feel silky smooth.
There’s little to no recovery time after dermaplaning. Your skin might look slightly pink right after treatment, but this fades quickly. You can apply makeup the same day, though many clients choose to go bare-faced and enjoy the natural glow.
Avoid intense sun exposure or exfoliating products for the next 24–48 hours, and be sure to wear SPF to protect your fresh skin.
You’ll notice the results of your dermaplaning treatment immediately: skin looks smoother, feels softer, and glows a little brighter. Makeup applies more evenly, and skincare sinks in faster. With consistent treatments, dermaplaning can help maintain a clear, fresh-faced look and enhance the effects of your broader skincare routine.
Results typically last about 3–4 weeks, making dermaplaning a great maintenance treatment in your regular skin plan.

After a dermaplaning procedure, there is no need to plan any downtime. During the two or three days following the procedure, you might experience redness or feel like your skin is scraped. It’s common to notice that your skin looks brighter immediately after a dermaplaning treatment, but it typically takes a few days for you to see what the complete transformation looks like. In the days following your procedure, you’ll be able to see more clearly the results as any redness subsides. The effects of dermaplaning don’t last forever. The procedure removes three weeks’ worth of dead skin cells. The effects of the procedure will fade over three to six weeks.
Absolutely! You can achieve a much smoother and brighter complexion by exfoliating and removing your hair. The treatment eases hyperpigmentation and smooths out fine lines and wrinkles. Acne scars may also be treated with the procedure.
Right after a dermaplaning facial, your skin may feel sensitive and vulnerable. Here are a couple of things to avoid after the procedure:
You shouldn’t feel any pain when you undergo dermaplaning. You may feel a tingling sensation while the procedure is being performed.
The benefits of dermaplaning are best achieved throughout ongoing treatments, although you may see some results after just one treatment. It is usually recommended to have a treatment every four weeks to eliminate the buildup of dead skin cells. You may notice a notable improvement in the look of your skin after the treatment.
Dermaplaning does not require you to have downtime after receiving the procedure. Therefore, you can get on with your day right away and apply makeup. You will be able to apply makeup smoothly once the treatment gets rid of all the hairs and dead skin tissues on your face!
