Las Vegas Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning, also known as “dermablading” is a mechanical skin resurfacing treatment that removes dull, damaged skin layer by layer using a thin, flexible, flat blade. There are no lasers, chemicals, or radio waves involved—only ultra-precise exfoliation that can both target specific blemishes and improve your skin’s overall texture and tone.
How dermaplaning can help
Dermplaning can be a safe, effective treatment for any skin type to:
- Reduce fine lines around the eyes, cheeks, forehead or mouth
- Minimize acne scars, chicken pox scars or other blemishes
- Resolve textural problems caused by sun damage or aging
- Remove “peach fuzz” from the upper lip, temples or other parts of the face
An added benefit of dermaplaning: removing the dull, dead outer layers, your skincare products can absorb more effectively and help make-up go on more smoothly.
What is the dermaplane procedure like?
Dermaplaning is an in-office treatment that requires no anesthesia; however, a numbing agent can be applied to help keep you comfortable. The flat side of a very fine blade is placed on the skin’s surface and moved across using short, gentle and light strokes. This motion removes the outermost layers of skin, exfoliating away dead skin cells, debris and peach fuzz in the process.
We can perform dermaplaning as a single procedure, or combine it with other skin rejuvenation treatments to enhance the results.
Following treatment, you may experience some mild redness, irritation, or tingling in the treated area. These effects are temporary and typically resolve within a few days. Our team will instruct you on post-treatment skincare, including SPF and moisturizers to help your skin heal back beautifully.
When will I see results?
Smoother, healthier-looking skin will begin to emerge about 7 to 10 days, once initial healing is complete and your skin produces new collagen in response to the dermaplaning treatment. For optimal results, patients typically choose to have regular treatments, spaced about one month apart.
