The Dermaplaning Experience
Your dermaplaning treatment at Maffi Plastic Surgery begins with a gentle cleanse, followed by the exfoliating treatment itself. Using a sterile, surgical-grade blade, your provider will carefully remove dead skin and fine hairs in precise, controlled strokes. The treatment is pain-free and relaxing, and typically takes about 30 to 45 minutes to complete, depending on the size of your treatment area. Dermaplaning can also prime the skin for subsequent treatments like chemical peels, enhancing their results and effectiveness. After treatment, medical grade products may be applied to soothe your skin.
Recovery & Results for Dermaplaning
Recovery
There is no downtime after dermaplaning, making it an ideal treatment for special events or as part of your monthly skincare routine. Your skin may appear slightly pink immediately after treatment, but it will quickly return to normal, revealing a luminous and smooth complexion. We will provide recommendations on how to maintain your results, including sun protection and skincare products tailored to your goals.
Results
After your first dermaplaning treatment, you will notice an immediate improvement in your skin’s texture, brightness, and clarity. Makeup applies more seamlessly, and skincare products penetrate more deeply. Your dermaplaning results are temporary, lasting until the new vellous hair grows back fully. Many patients receive regular dermaplanes to maintain their smooth, hair-free skin. With regular treatments, dermaplaning can help keep your skin radiant and refreshed year-round.

Contact UsWhat is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation treatment that removes dead skin cells and fine facial hair, also known as peach fuzz, using SkinCeuticals -surgical-grade blade. This technique reveals smoother skin and enhances the effectiveness of your skincare products. At Maffi Plastic Surgery, dermaplaning is performed by our skilled Licensed Medical Aestheticians who tailor each treatment to your unique skin type and goals.
Candidates for Dermaplaning
You may be an ideal candidate for dermaplaning if your skin feels rough, appears dull, or has fine vellus hairs. Dermaplaning is generally safe for most skin types and can be an ideal option for maintaining a radiant complexion with minimal downtime. The best way to determine if you are a good candidate for dermaplaning treatment is by scheduling a consultation at Maffi Plastic Surgery. During your consultation at Maffi Plastic Surgery, we will assess your skin to determine whether dermaplaning is the most suitable treatment for your needs.
