Dermaplaning is a gentle and effective method of exfoliation that removes dead skin cells and fine facial hair, including peach fuzz, to unveil a smoother, brighter complexion. Using a sterile surgical scalpel, this treatment scrapes away the dull outer layer of skin to create a flawless canvas. Although it may sound intimidating, the process is completely safe when performed by skilled professionals.
At Inner Glow AestheticsMD, we specialize in dermaplaning treatments that deliver real, noticeable results without discomfort.

Those with active acne, infections, or cold sores should avoid dermaplaning, as it may spread bacteria or exacerbate the condition. Individuals with certain medical conditions, like polycystic ovary syndrome, should consult their provider before treatment.
On the contrary, dermaplaning helps prevent breakouts by removing dead skin that can clog pores and block skincare products from penetrating effectively.
