Dermaplaning Facial at NPMD is a low-downtime exfoliation treatment for patients who want smoother, brighter-looking skin and temporary removal of fine facial hair, often called peach fuzz. The treatment uses controlled manual exfoliation to remove surface buildup and vellus hair so the complexion can look more polished and feel softer.
This page uses Dermaplaning Facial as the canonical service name, while “Dermaplaning” is treated as the same service intent. We are not creating a duplicate page because the existing Treatments route already covers the canonical service: /treatments/med-spa-treatments/dermaplaning-facial.
Dermaplaning is best for patients who want a polished surface reset rather than deep resurfacing. It can help the skin look cleaner, brighter, and smoother when dullness, fine facial hair, or surface buildup is part of the concern.
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation and peach-fuzz removal service. It is different from a hydrating treatment, a chemical peel, microneedling, or laser resurfacing because it focuses on the skin surface rather than deeper remodeling.
During consultation, we may compare dermaplaning with Facials, Medical-Grade Facial, Hydrating Glow Facial, Hydrafacial, Chemical Peels, or Microneedling Facial depending on whether the priority is fuzz removal, hydration, exfoliation, acne control, pigment, or texture correction.
Dermaplaning should be matched to the condition of the skin that day. Even though it is usually low downtime, it is still exfoliation with a blade-based technique, so skin irritation, active breakouts, infection risk, and aftercare matter.
Treatment usually begins with cleansing and a skin check. If dermaplaning is appropriate, the provider uses controlled, light strokes with a dermaplaning tool to remove fine facial hair and superficial dead skin buildup. The plan may then include calming hydration, barrier support, and SPF guidance.
The goal is a smoother, brighter-looking surface, not aggressive scraping. If the skin is inflamed, heavily broken out, recently treated, sunburned, or too reactive, NPMD may recommend delaying dermaplaning or choosing a gentler facial plan first.

Most dermaplaning visits have little downtime, but the skin can feel temporarily more sensitive because the surface has been freshly exfoliated. Mild redness, tightness, dryness, tingling, irritation, or small breakouts can happen.
Aftercare usually focuses on gentle cleansing, lightweight hydration, avoiding harsh scrubs, pausing strong active ingredients as directed, not picking, and using sun protection. If dermaplaning is done before an event, it is smart to plan enough time for any temporary sensitivity to settle.
Skin often feels smoother quickly after dermaplaning, and makeup may apply more evenly. Peach fuzz removal is temporary because the hair grows back naturally from the follicle. Dermaplaning does not make the hair grow from a deeper point, and it should not be used to treat the underlying cause of unusual or rapid facial hair growth.
If deeper skin goals are present, NPMD may recommend Chemical Peels, Microneedling with PRP, RF Microneedling, or CO2 Laser Full Face Treatment instead of relying on dermaplaning alone.

PATIENT FEEDBACK

Published patient feedback from recent NPMD visits.
Real Estate Agent
In my profession, first impressions matter. The chemical peel series I did at NPMD gave me the clear, glowing skin I had been trying to achieve with expensive skincare products for years. My provider was honest about what would work best and the results speak for themselves.
Architect
The PRP therapy for my receding hairline has produced noticeable results that I honestly did not expect. After four sessions, my hair is visibly thicker and the thinning areas are filling in. The treatment itself was painless and the staff made me feel completely at ease throughout the process.
Personal Trainer
I recommend NPMD to all my clients who want to optimize their health beyond what fitness alone can achieve. Their IV therapy helps with recovery, and the hormone optimization program has been fantastic for several of my older clients who were struggling with energy and body composition despite consistent exercise.
Registered Nurse
As a healthcare professional, I appreciate NPMD's evidence-based approach and transparent communication. They never oversell treatments or make unrealistic promises. Every recommendation comes with clear explanations of expected outcomes, risks, and alternatives. It is refreshing to find providers who prioritize patient education alongside excellent clinical care.

Between fundraising stress and constant travel, my body was breaking down. The comprehensive wellness assessment at NPMD revealed multiple nutrient deficiencies and cortisol imbalances. Their integrated approach — IV therapy, sleep optimization, and targeted supplements — helped me recover my baseline in about two months. Essential investment in my health.
