Dermaplaning

A gentle, blade-based exfoliation treatment that removes dead skin and peach fuzz, revealing smoother, brighter skin and better product absorption.

Aesthetics - Dermaplaning_iStock-1351582710

What Does Dermaplaning Treat?

Dermaplaning is a physical exfoliation treatment that removes the outermost layer of dead skin along with fine vellus hair, often called peach fuzz. Without that buildup, skin looks brighter, feels smoother, and absorbs skincare products more effectively. Many patients also notice a softer look to fine lines and a more even skin texture. Because it clears away surface buildup, dermaplaning is often used to prepare the skin before a hydrafacial, allowing for better product penetration. It's also a popular monthly treatment on its own, giving skin a fresh, healthy glow between other treatments. Makeup tends to apply more smoothly afterward too.

Goals Addressed
Smoother, brighter-looking skin
Improved skin texture
Reduced appearance of fine lines
Better product absorption
Pairs Well With:
Hydrafacials
Preps skin for deeper, more even peel absorption.
Custom Facials
Enhances results for a fuller rejuvenation experience.
Medical-Grade Skincare
Helps at-home products penetrate more effectively.
WHAT TO EXPECT

What Happens at Your Appointment?

Dermaplaning is quick, comfortable, and requires no preparation or downtime.

1

Consultation

Your provider reviews your skin goals and confirms dermaplaning is the right fit.
2

Treatment

A sterile surgical blade gently exfoliates the skin's surface over about 15 minutes.
3

You're Done

Walk out with smoother skin, with no recovery time needed.

Your Experience With Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning delivers immediate, visible results with no recovery period. Right after treatment, skin looks brighter and feels noticeably smoother to the touch, and makeup tends to glide on more evenly. Because the treatment only removes surface buildup rather than affecting deeper layers, there's no peeling or downtime to plan around. Many patients return monthly to maintain that fresh, radiant look and to keep supporting their at-home skincare routine.

Timeline at a Glance

Days 1-3
Skin looks brighter and feels smoother immediately.
Days 5-7
Vellus hair may begin to regrow gradually.
Days 10-14
Skin texture remains smooth with continued at-home care.
Months 3–4
Ideal time for your next treatment to maintain results.

Yesterday (6/18/24) i was treated by Aubrey and had a great time. I've been a client for almost 15 years, for a pretty wide variety of services, and it's always been an excellent experience. Despite Dr. McDaniel's own retirement, I appreciate the PA's and nurse's medical expertise in diagnosis: I fully trust Tania's and Kelly's competence in performing procedures. Aubrey did a great job, very professional and caring! It's a beautiful, relaxing place with straight-up medical treatment rooms. And everyone is so kind and friendly--thanks, Jenna, Victoria and Kelli! Just signed up for a weekly series, so I'll be seeing you all summer long. PS, excellent parking situation. The connected garage is free and you don't have to go outside.

Dr. Prussick is an excellent dermatologist and I have used him for years. But since he became part of Ann Arundel Dermatology it is almost impossible to reach the practice. They put you on hold for 10 minutes and then the call drops. Or, you select the 'call back' option but they don't call you back. A few months ago I gave up and found another dermatologist for an emergency infection. Recently, it took 3 days for a prescription to be sent to the pharmacy which is not local. It has been a week and I have heard nothing about its being filled. I gave up trying to contact the practice. I bought an over the counter option and hope it will work. If I hadn't been using this doctor for so many years I would be looking for someone else.

My family and I have been seeing Dr. Kang for over 15 years at AA Dermatology. It's a little tougher to get in quickly to see him as he's usually booked at least 3 weeks out, but he's worth the wait if it's not urgent. The office staff is pleasant but I wait at least 10 minutes on hold every time calling the office before I am able to speak with someone. Overall, it's a great office experience and we will continue to see Dr. Kang.

I haven't even been to the appointment yet for my son but I needed to get up here and brag on Taylor!

It's sadly getting rarer nowadays to run into someone over the phone who takes their job seriously and actually sounds like they even like their job, but she was so awesome! You never know what kind of day a person is having, and just sounding happy and cheerful could really impact someone's mood. Taylor, I hope you read this and know that you're an amazing young woman and a light in this world! Keep being you!

The front desk ladies are welcoming and incredibly attentive. Every step of the process, from check in to follow up, was handled with professionalism and kindness. What truly sets this practice apart is their compassion. Frankie took the time to listen carefully to my concerns, explain my condition in clear, reassuring terms, and create a personalized treatment plan that made me feel confident and supported. I never felt rushed or like just another appointment on the calendar. The entire team is thoughtful, respectful, and clearly passionate about helping people feel their best. Whether you're dealing with a complex skin condition or a routine check (even BOTOX!!!) you’ll be met with the same level of care and empathy. If you’re looking for expert dermatologic care delivered with heart, this is the place to go. I’m so grateful to have found them!

Lovely office with windows into nature in the exam rooms. Jennifer & her staff are always friendly & knowledgeable. I also like the availability of the tinted mineral powder make-up & no pressure for anesthetic procedures or products. They have sales & events through out the year where you can dip your toe into any other areas you'd like to explore w/ o feeling pressured

I was thoroughly impressed with the service I received during a recent visit. I was skeptical at first based on the reviews. I was greeted by a welcoming front desk staff, and Nathali Rodriguez, PA answered my questions and provided insightful information regarding my skincare. She was attentive, professional, and demonstrated exceptional bedside manner. I'll definitely return for future treatment!

My visit went well, better than I expected it to be. I was greeted promptly, then the procedure was satisfactorily explained; and after that the surgery was performed without any complications and at the end of it all I was sent home with thorough follow-up instructions..

Dr. Smith, Hannah and the rest of the staff were amazing. They were thorough in their explanation of the procedure putting me at ease. They were caring while being efficient. Dr. smith even followed up later in the day to see how I was doing. Hopefully I will not require treatment in the future but, if I do, I will definitely choose Dr. Smith and the rest of the team again.

My teenager has been experiencing some treatment-resistant acne, for which her pediatrician referred her to dermatology after exhausting the usual suspects of medication combos. My kiddo has been to a couple of previous (male) providers who just didn't make her feel comfortable, or like she was part of the treatment plan being discussed. We ended up seeing Semhar Mekonen, APRN, with Academic Alliance in Dermatology in Countryside, and couldn't be happier! She was very kind and understanding, and we really felt like we had a tx plan in place moving forward. My kiddo is also 17 and able to go to her checkups solo if needed.

ADDRESSING TOP Dermaplaning CONCERNS

Your Dermaplaning Questions, Answered

No. Most patients describe it as painless, feeling similar to a gentle scraping sensation.

No. Vellus hair grows back at the same texture and color as before treatment.

None. You can return to your normal routine, including makeup application, right away.

Dermaplaning will remove about 3 weeks' worth of dead surface skin cells, so it is best to wait around 3 to 4 weeks between procedures.

It can improve the appearance of surface texture, though it doesn't treat deeper scarring. Your provider can recommend complementary treatments if needed.

The procedure is recommended for anyone that wishes to have smoother, healthier looking skin. However, it is not advised to those with acne.

Yes. It's often paired with hydrafacials or facials to enhance results.

Want smoother, brighter skin in just 15-30 minutes?
