If your skin looks dull no matter how much you exfoliate, or your foundation catches on fine peach fuzz, dermaplaning may be the simple fix you've been looking for. It's one of the most requested add-ons at Le Spa Medical Spa in Beaverton, and it's easy to see why: you walk out with smooth, bright skin and no downtime.
Dermaplaning is a gentle, manual exfoliation. A trained esthetician uses a sterile surgical blade held at a shallow angle to lightly sweep across the skin. This removes two things at once:
It's painless. Most people describe it as a light scraping sensation, and many find it relaxing.
No. This is the most common question we hear. Dermaplaning removes vellus hair at the surface; it doesn't change the follicle, so the hair grows back the same soft texture and color. It doesn't come back darker or coarser.
Dermaplaning is a good fit for most skin types, especially if you're dealing with dullness, rough texture, peach fuzz, or uneven makeup application. It's also popular before events, photos, and holidays.
It may not be the right choice if you have an active acne breakout, a sunburn, open wounds, or certain skin conditions in the treatment area. If you've recently used prescription acne medication or strong retinoids, let us know. Your esthetician will review your skin and health history before any treatment.
At Le Spa, dermaplaning is offered two ways:
Every facial starts with a skin analysis, so your treatment is matched to what your skin needs that day.
Your skin naturally renews itself about once a month, so many clients book dermaplaning every 3 to 4 weeks. Your esthetician can recommend the right rhythm for your skin.
