Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a gentle, non-invasive method of exfoliation: a licensed medical aesthetician uses a precise, professional blade to sweep away the top layer of dense skin cells and fine vellus hair, allowing your skincare products to absorb better. Book it on its own as an express treatment, or add it to any facial.

What happens during dermaplaning?

Your skin is cleansed first. Your licensed medical aesthetician then holds the skin gently taut and draws a sterile, single-use blade across it in short, light strokes, lifting away the build-up of surface cells and fine vellus hair. The session finishes with hydration and sun protection chosen for your skin.

On its own, or with a facial?

As an express treatment, dermaplaning takes about 30 minutes. Added to a facial, it prepares the skin so the facial's serums and hydration absorb well: many clients add it to a SkinFit Facial or a HydraFacial.

Dermaplaning: Questions and Answers

Does dermaplaning hurt?

No. The blade glides over the surface of the skin, and most people feel only light, gentle strokes. Many find it relaxing.

Will the hair grow back thicker after dermaplaning?

No. Dermaplaning removes fine vellus hair at the surface of the skin; it doesn't change how that hair grows back.

How often can I have dermaplaning?

Many clients book it about every four weeks, in step with the skin's natural renewal cycle. Your aesthetician will suggest a rhythm that suits your skin.

Testimonials

  • “Really impressed with the tour and the high-tech approach to non-invasive pain management.”
    “Really impressed with the tour and the high-tech approach to non-invasive pain management.”

    The treatments are designed for your specific needs and are adjusted as improvements are made. When I started my sessions I could barely tolerate side to side motion or strength training of any kind. Now that the sessions have unlocked the fascia in multiple areas I’m regaining range of motion, lessening the nerve pain, and able to challenge myself to strength training with the Vasper and Oxygen Therapy. I came to HumanBlu upon the referrals of several trusted friends after going through surgery to alleviate pain I was experiencing daily. I wasn’t sure what to expect but was really impressed with the tour and the high-tech approach to pain management in a non-invasive way. Within two weeks of sessions, I saw and felt improvements in energy levels, range of motion, balance issues, cognitive issues, and a reduction in pain. I have used the Pulse PEMF, Vasper, Oxygen Therapy, Infrared Sauna, and total Gut Restoration pre/pro biotic regime. My goal is to “energize to exercise” and get back to a healthy and active lifestyle which includes swimming, yoga, and strength training. The team at HumanBlu are assisting me in achieving those goals and I’m so thankful for their encouragement and support.

    “PEMF has absolutely helped with my anxiety/depression. I have done PEMF specifically on my head only once, but on the rest of my body an average of three times a week and that is benefiting me mentally! I am finding myself feeling much more energetic and not falling asleep mid day anymore. I have gotten off of medications and have just been doing PEMF because I have seen a tremendous, positive change in my mental health!”

    “After using PEMF on my back for an average of 3 days a week for 3 weeks, I am pain free! My back feels less inflamed, more fluid and moveable. Having had chronic back pain for 15 years, to the point where it was limiting my ability to do day to day things and sleep, I am overjoyed that I am able to not feel in pain 24/7”

    “PEMF has helped my knee pain tremendously. After using PEMF, they feel stronger, and less achey. Especially on cold days, they tend to get stiff, but with PEMF, there has been improvement. I am on my feet all day walking many miles for work, so it has been important for me to find a way to not have knee pain.”
