What is a Dermaplane Facial?

If you’re looking for the absolute best way to achieve instant, glowing, smooth skin, our Dermaplane Facial is the answer. Located conveniently in the heart of Rancho Santa Fe, CA, our licensed aestheticians specialize in this highly effective treatment to achieve unmatched results. Dermaplane is an extremely effective, non-invasive form of mechanical exfoliation designed to instantaneously rejuvenate your complexion.

How a Dermaplane Session Works: The Two Key Steps

For optimal results, the Dermaplaning facial uses a single-use, sterile, surgical-grade scalpel—a tool specifically designed for this gentle procedure. The blade delicately glides across the skin at a 45-degree angle to scrape off two primary culprits that dull your skin:

  • Dead Skin Cells: A stubborn layer of old cells that inhibit the absorption of your expensive skincare products and cause your skin to look flat and flaky.
  • Vellus Hairs (Peach Fuzz): Microscopic fine hairs that often trap dirt, oil, and makeup, contributing to clogged pores and a rough texture.

This physical exfoliation instantly triggers the natural cell regeneration process. The immediate removal of this debris is essential for maintaining an even, healthy glow, leaving your skin feeling incredibly smooth and supple.



Unmatched Benefits of the
Dermaplane Facial

This treatment is beneficial for virtually all skin types and ages, but it offers specific advantages that elevate your skincare routine.

Experience Instant and Lasting Radiance

We consistently hear from clients in Del Mar and Carmel Valley that these immediate benefits are what make our Dermaplane Facial a must-have service:

  • Flawless Makeup Application: Makeup glides on smoothly and evenly, eliminating the issue of foundation clinging to vellus hair.
  • Enhanced Product Penetration: Your expensive serums and moisturizers penetrate deeper, making them up to 60% more effective.
  • Smooths Texture & Scars: It helps to minimize the appearance of superficial acne scarring and uneven skin tones.
  • Safe for All: Our Dermaplane Facial is considered safe for pregnant or nursing clients who must avoid certain chemical peels.



Aftercare and FAQs

Does Dermaplane make facial hair grow back thicker?
No, this is a pervasive myth. The removal of vellus hairs will not change their structure. The hair grows back with the exact same texture and color it had before.

How often should I book a Dermaplane Facial appointment?
The smooth results typically last three to four weeks. Since your skin is constantly regenerating, it’s ideal to schedule a maintenance appointment every 4–6 weeks to maintain maximum product absorption.

Dermaplane Post-Treatment Essential: SPF
After any strong exfoliation, two crucial steps protect your new glow. Post-exfoliation, your skin is particularly susceptible to sun damage. Being extremely diligent with a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher is non-negotiable.
