What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning removes the vellus hair and dead skin cells from your face. Once removed, it stimulates the growth of collagen which then helps brighten and smooth the skin’s complexion. Your skin will also be able to absorb skin care products better. Dermaplaning can be done quickly, in as little as 15 minutes, resulting in facial skin that is soft as a baby’s.
Dermaplaning is safe and great for all skin types except acne-prone skin. Our aesthetic doctors use a scalpel held at a 45-degree to gently graze the blade over your facial skin. Dermaplaning is also known as dermablading, as a razor or scalpel is used to remove “peach fuzz” hair and dead skin. The procedure is customized to your needs and can be performed in one area or the whole face. We highly recommend our patients pair it with a hydrafacial.

Does Dermaplaning Make Hair Grow Back Thicker?
Many of our customers have concerns about hair growing back thicker after dermaplaning. In fact, dermaplaning doesn’t make hair grow back thicker or darker. In addition, it doesn’t cause any hyperpigmentation for darker skin tones like waxing or shaving. Your hair will grow back to the same rate and texture as it was before the treatment.
How Often Should you Dermaplane?
You can do dermaplaning every 2 to 3 weeks. Our aestheticians at Chandler Medspa recommend that you do dermaplaning together with a HydraFacial treatment for the best radiant skin results.
Is Dermaplaning Safe? Does Dermaplaning Hurt?
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive and non-chemical treatment that is safe for your skin. A highly skilled and trained aesthetician will use a disposable sterile blade to perform the procedure. At Lazaderm Laser and Aesthetics, our aestheticians stay committed to delivering the most effective and safest procedures.
How to Prep Skin for Dermaplaning?
We recommend you cleanse your face gently before the procedures and use moisturizers or skin care products after treatment to avoid skin redness. For the best outcomes, you can start with our HydraFacial before your procedure.
Can I Dermaplane at Home?
There are some differences between DIY dermaplaning and in-office procedures. At our medical spa, our aestheticians are licensed and they use a surgical blade that can help with deeper exfoliation. In addition, before the procedure, our aestheticians will give you a free consultation to learn if you’re the right candidate for dermaplaning, and they would offer add-on treatments to achieve the optimal skin results (if needed). If you decide to dermaplane at home, be mindful of your skin conditions. You would want to avoid acne areas and make sure your skin doesn’t get cut.
Dermaplaning in Chandler, AZ
Dermaplaning is generally a safe treatment. However, there is a risk of cutting, redness and tenderness associated with the treatment. It’s necessary that the procedure is performed by an expert who can do a safe procedure to avoid any potential side effects.
In addition, though infections or scars are rare, it’s a possibility. Do your research on experienced aestheticians and professional cosmetic clinics to ensure the tool used for your session is clean and sterile.
