If you want brighter, smoother and more even-toned skin, Dermaplaning can help. This minimally invasive, medically supervised exfoliation treatment gently removes dead skin cells and fine “peach fuzz,” leaving your skin soft, radiant and ready to glow.
At Woodlands Wellness & Cosmetic Center, our on-site medical providers have served The Woodlands for over 20 years, and they bring that experience to every treatment. We offer personalized care, expert guidance and safe, reliable results.
What Is Dermaplaning & How Does It Work?
Dermaplaning is a physical exfoliation procedure in which a skilled provider uses a surgical‑grade blade or dermatome to gently shave away the outermost layer of dead skin cells along with fine vellus hair.
Key benefits include:
- Revealing smoother, firmer skin texture and improving radiance.
- Removing fine facial hair (“peach fuzz”) that can trap oil, dirt and impede smooth makeup application.
- Enhancing absorption of skincare products and optimizing effectiveness of subsequent treatments.
- Providing a “glow” effect with no downtime.
Who Should Consider Dermaplaning?
You may be a good candidate if you:
- Have dull or rough skin texture, uneven tone or minor surface imperfections.
- Are bothered by fine facial hair or “peach fuzz” that affects how your skin looks or how makeup sits.
- Want to boost your skincare regimen’s effectiveness by clearing away dead skin layers.
- Have minimal downtime available and desire instant smoother, polished skin.
- Are in good general skin health (avoiding active breakouts, open lesions or skin conditions unsuitable for exfoliation) — note: dermaplaning is not advised during active acne or inflammatory conditions.
