The treatment is about an hour long!

The dermaplaning treatment is performed under the care of a cosmetic professional at Saltz Plastic Surgery. A special scalpel-like device with a thin blade is used along the skin to remove dead skin cells, and unwanted facial hair, sometimes referred to as "peach fuzz." This treatment will enhance your skin's appearance, allow cosmetics to look smoother on the skin's surface, and allow better absorption of skincare products. For some of our patients, this treatment can also reduce the appearance of deep acne scars on the skin as well, improving self-confidence for those who have battled with acne in the past.

Absolutely! When dermaplaning is performed by a licensed professional or doctor, it is considered safe and effective at exfoliating the upper layers of the skin.

The team at Saltz Plastic Surgery encourages patients to start with a single treatment and book maintenance appointments every four to six weeks to maintain the results. This depends on how fast your facial hair grows and your own skin cell turnover rate.

While the idea of running a blade across the skin to remove the upper layer sounds like a painful process, it is not as intimidating as you may think! The treatment is not painful as it is not a deep treatment, so no anesthetics are needed. You can rest and relax on the treatment table as our professionals work the blade along the skin for exfoliation and rejuvenation.
