During a Dermaplaning treatment, clinicians use a scalpel or a dermatome—a device that looks like an electric razor—to affect the dermis. Dermaplaning lifts off a layer of old skin and peach fuzz from the face. Maintaining dermaplaning monthly is often necessary to achieve lasting results.

Patients can receive dermaplaning in Manhattan to treat lackluster skin and an overgrowth of peach fuzz on the face. Dermaplaning achieves a smoother appearance by reducing peach fuzz and older skin, especially when applying makeup.
No. There are two types of hair that grow on the body, terminal and vellus or baby hair. Terminal hairs exist on the scalp, underarms, and pubic regions. Unlike terminal hairs, the thin and soft vellus hairs that grow everywhere else reappear at the same rate and texture that they always have.
Dermaplaning in Manhattan involves gently scraping the skin’s surface. It is an entirely painless treatment, but there are risks of tiny cuts on the skin. Any nicks or scrapes are not deep and usually heal within 24 to 48 hours.
When you want to have dermaplaning in Manhattan, do not use exfoliants 5 days before the treatment. Men should also refrain from shaving their face 1 day before.
After a session of dermaplaning in Manhattan, we recommend avoiding direct sunlight for a few days and that you moisturize the treated area with hyaluronic acid.
Both options are a form of physical exfoliation. Dermaplaning effectively removes vellus or baby hair and dead skin cells from the skin, while microdermabrasion provides a less thorough exfoliation.
