Let Your Skin Shine With Our Bellefonte, PA, Dermaplaning Services

Are you looking to get smoother, brighter, more beautiful skin? Then dermaplaning might just be your ticket! Dermaplaning is a gentle exfoliating treatment that removes dead skin cells and peach fuzz, giving you an instantly smoother, more radiant complexion. This treatment also enhances the effectiveness of your skincare products and makes makeup go on smoother. Afterwards, your skin feels soft, looks brighter, and feels fresh. Think of an instant glow-up with minimal effort.

What Goes Down During a Dermaplaning Session

Dermaplaning is a quick, non-invasive treatment that removes dead skin cells and peach fuzz for an instantly smoother complexion. During the session, your esthetician will use a small, sterile surgical blade to gently exfoliate your skin, removing any buildup that can cause dullness. The treatment is gentle and pain-free, leaving your skin feeling soft, refreshed, and glowing.

Once your skin is prepped, the procedure typically takes about 30-45 minutes, and you’ll be able to see an immediate difference. After the session, your skin will feel baby-soft, and any makeup you apply will glide on smoothly for a flawless finish.

What Makes Dermaplaning Different?

When it comes to exfoliating treatments, there are several options available, but dermaplaning is pretty unique in both how it’s done as well as the benefits that it offers. Unlike traditional facials, which often focus on cleansing and hydration, dermaplaning goes a step further by removing not just dead skin cells but also fine vellus hair (aka peach fuzz).

This dual-action treatment leaves your skin with an exceptionally smooth surface—one that’s more touchable and ideal for makeup application. You can expect your foundation to go on flawlessly without clinging to fine hairs or dry patches.

Smooth Skin Secrets and Dermaplaning FAQs

Nope, that’s a common myth! Dermaplaning only removes the fine vellus hair (also called “peach fuzz”), and it doesn’t change the color, thickness, or growth rate of the hair.

When the hair grows back, it might feel a little different at first because it’s been cut straight across, but it’s still the same soft hair you had before. So, no stubble or beards, just smooth, glowing skin!

They’re similar in that both involve a blade removing hair, but dermaplaning is a lot more than just shaving. It also exfoliates your skin by gently removing dead skin cells, leaving your face extra smooth and bright.

Plus, dermaplaning is typically done by professionals using a medical-grade blade for safe, precise results. It’s more of a deluxe skincare treatment with a bonus hair removal effect instead of just shaving it all off.

Yes, it can definitely help! Dermaplaning gently sweeps away the top layer of dead skin and built-up debris that collects throughout your day-to-day living, which can often contribute to clogged pores and dullness. With that layer gone, your skincare products can absorb more effectively and do their job even better.

While it’s not designed to extract blackheads directly, it pairs beautifully with treatments that do. Think of dermaplaning as your skin’s reset button, essentially clearing the path for clearer, smoother, more radiant skin.

The answer to this question really depends on your skin goals! Dermaplaning is great for instant glow, smoother skin, and makeup-ready results, while microneedling dives deeper to stimulate collagen and improve texture, scars, or fine lines over time.

Some people even combine the two (with our guidance) for the ultimate refresh. If you’re not sure which to choose, your provider can help create the best plan for your skin type and goals.

If you have active acne or inflamed rosacea, dermaplaning might not be the best option right now. The treatment could irritate already sensitive or broken skin, so it’s best to wait until things calm down.

However, once your skin is more stable, dermaplaning might become a gentle option again. Always chat with one of our licensed skincare professionals first, as we’ll be able to help you choose what’s safest and most effective for your skin.

Post Dermaplaning Care For Your New Look

So, you’ve just had your dermaplaning treatment, and your skin is looking nice and fresh. What’s next? Keeping that look going! Proper post-treatment care is key to making sure that your skin feels its best and stays radiant for as long as possible. Here’s what you can do to help:

Step 1

Hydration is Key

After dermaplaning, your skin is extra smooth, so it’s important to keep it well-hydrated. Drink plenty of water, and use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to lock in moisture and support the healing process. Try to choose something fragrance-free and soothing, so your skin stays calm and cool.

Step 2

Sun Protection is a Must

Your skin’s just had a little extra TLC, and now it’s more sensitive to the sun, so SPF is about to be your new best friend.  Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher every morning, and reapply throughout the day if you’re heading outside.

Step 3

Avoid Harsh Products

Your skin is in a delicate state post-dermaplaning, so give it a break from heavy exfoliants, retinols, and anything too abrasive. Stick with a gentle skincare routine and keep things simple for the first few days.
