What’s dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a cosmetic procedure that removes the top layers of your skin. The procedure aims to remove fine wrinkles and deep acne scarring, as well as make the skin’s surface look smooth.

• Dermaplaning is safe for most people, with little risk of side effects when it’s performed by a certified dermatologist.

• This procedure doesn’t require any downtime for recovery, which makes it extremely convenient. The most difficult part may be finding a trained provider who can administer this treatment.

• Dermaplaning isn’t covered by insurance, and sessions can run between $150 and $250 each.

• Dermatologists say this treatment is effective for people looking to make their skin appear more youthful, smooth, and bright, but results typically only last three weeks.
