What is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a professional exfoliation technique that uses a sterile surgical blade to carefully remove dead skin cells and fine facial hair (vellus hair or peach fuzz). Performed by Karen at Refine Skin Kare, this treatment delivers a silky-smooth finish, improves skincare product absorption, and ensures flawless makeup application. It’s safe, comfortable, and ideal for most skin types.

Benefits of Dermaplaning

  • Smooth Skin: Softens and refines texture instantly.
  • Removes Peach Fuzz: Eliminates fine facial hair.
  • Radiant Glow: Enhances skin clarity and brightness.
  • Better Absorption: Boosts skincare product efficacy.
  • Flawless Makeup: Creates a perfect canvas for application.
  • No Downtime: Painless with immediate results.
  • Sensitive-Skin Friendly: Gentle and non-irritating.

What Makes Dermaplaning Unique?

Unlike chemical exfoliants or scrubs, dermaplaning uses precise, mechanical exfoliation with no harsh ingredients. It’s perfect for sensitive skin and provides immediate results, making it a go-to choice before events, photoshoots, or whenever you need a radiant boost.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

At our Franklin Park studio, Karen begins with a thorough skin cleanse and ensures your skin is dry. Using a sterile blade, she gently glides over your skin to remove dead cells and peach fuzz, creating a smooth, luminous surface. The 30-minute treatment is relaxing, with a light scraping sensation that most find comfortable. Karen applies hydrating serums and SPF afterward to protect your fresh skin.

Aftercare & Results

Dermaplaning requires no downtime, though SPF is essential due to increased sun sensitivity. You’ll notice smoother, brighter skin immediately, with results lasting days and improving with regular sessions. Karen provides tailored at-home care tips to maintain your glow.
