Dermaplaning in Louisville, KY
Get smoother, brighter skin in under an hour.
Dermaplaning removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) to reveal smooth, glowing skin in a single visit. It's one of the simplest ways to refresh your complexion, and it creates the perfect canvas for your skincare and makeup.
What Is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation treatment. A trained professional uses a sterile, medical-grade blade to gently sweep away the top layer of dead skin along with peach fuzz. The result is a level of smoothness that scrubs and at-home tools can't match.
Benefits of Dermaplaning
Instant radiance: Removes the dull, dry surface layer that makes skin look tired.
No more peach fuzz: Removes fine facial hair that traps oil and dirt.
Better product absorption: Serums and moisturizers reach your skin without a barrier of dead cells.
Flawless makeup: Foundation and powder go on smoothly without catching or caking.
Gentle on sensitive skin: A non-chemical option for clients who may not tolerate peels.
Softer-looking fine lines: Regular exfoliation helps soften the look of superficial lines.
Dermaplaning vs. a Chemical Peel
Both treatments exfoliate, but they work differently. Dermaplaning is physical, immediate, and has no downtime. A chemical peel works deeper and is the better choice for pigment, acne, and texture concerns. Many of our clients alternate the two, or add dermaplaning to a custom medical facial for an extra-polished finish.
What to Expect During Treatment
Before your treatment, one of our providers reviews your skin, your current products, and your goals to make sure dermaplaning is the right choice. The treatment takes about 30 to 45 minutes. Most clients describe it as a light stroking sensation, and many find it relaxing. There's no pain and no recovery period.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Dermaplaning works well for most skin types, especially dry, rough, or dull skin. It's a favorite before weddings, photoshoots, and big Louisville events, and a smart choice for anyone who wants to remove facial hair without the irritation of waxing. If you're having an active acne flare or your skin is highly reactive, your provider may suggest waiting until it calms down.

Dermaplaning FAQs
Will my hair grow back thicker or darker? No. Dermaplaning removes fine vellus hair, which grows back with the same soft texture and color.
Can I wear makeup after dermaplaning? Most clients can wear makeup the same day or the next day. Many book dermaplaning a few days before an event so their makeup goes on perfectly.
How often should I get dermaplaning? Every four to six weeks matches your skin's natural renewal cycle.
Can I add a brow or lash service to my appointment? Yes. Beauty Boosters such as brow tinting and lash tinting pair easily with dermaplaning.
