Dermaplaning: The Key to Silky Smooth Skin

Dermaplaning Facial Treatment at Lush Aesthetics Westfield MA
The Bottom Line

Dermaplaning is an advanced physical exfoliation method that uses a sterile surgical scalpel to gently sweep away dead skin cells and "peach fuzz" (vellus hair). This leaves your skin instantly brighter, ultra-smooth, and allows your skincare products to penetrate much deeper.

If you have ever noticed that your makeup looks cakey over fine facial hair or that your expensive serum sits on top of your skin without absorbing, dermaplaning is the ultimate instant-results treatment.

Will my hair grow back thicker or darker?

This is the single most common skincare myth! No, dermaplaning does not alter the physiological structure, follicle shape, or pigment of your hair.

Facial "peach fuzz" consists of soft vellus hair. When shaved or dermaplaned at a 45-degree angle, it will grow back at the exact same rate, thickness, texture, and soft tone it was prior to treatment.

Why do makeup artists love dermaplaning?

By gently sweeping away weeks of accumulated dead skin cells along with vellum hair, dermaplaning creates an impeccably smooth canvas.

Liquid foundations, tinted moisturizers, and powders glide effortlessly over the skin without settling into fine lines or clinging to dry patches, giving you an airbrushed, camera-ready finish.

Deeper Skincare Absorption

Without a barrier of dead skin and peach fuzz blocking absorption, your home serums and moisturizers can penetrate significantly deeper into the skin, maximizing the return on your skincare investment.
