Dermaplaning is a gentle exfoliating treatment designed to remove accumulated dead skin cells and fine facial hair from the surface of the skin, revealing a smoother, brighter, more refined-looking complexion. At Alchemy Beauty Bar, dermaplaning is approached with the same precision and restraint that guide every aesthetic treatment.
Rather than aggressive resurfacing, dermaplaning provides controlled physical exfoliation that can refresh the skin’s appearance while creating a smoother surface for skincare and makeup application.
Under the leadership of founder Pheenie Scott, each treatment is thoughtfully selected according to the client’s skin, concerns, and broader aesthetic goals.
How Dermaplaning Works
During dermaplaning, a sterile surgical blade is carefully passed across the skin at a controlled angle to remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells along with fine vellus hair, commonly referred to as “peach fuzz.”
The treatment does not rely on chemicals or abrasive particles. Instead, precise technique allows the skin’s surface to be exfoliated while maintaining a measured approach to skin health and barrier integrity.
What Can Dermaplaning Address?
Dermaplaning may be appropriate for clients looking to improve the appearance of:
- Dull or lackluster skin
- Rough or uneven texture
- Dry, flaky surface skin
- Fine facial hair
- Minor surface irregularities
- Makeup that appears uneven or textured on the skin
By removing surface buildup, dermaplaning can leave the complexion feeling softer and looking smoother and more refreshed.
Treatment Planning and Expectations
Dermaplaning is generally a comfortable treatment and requires little to no downtime. The skin may appear slightly pink or feel temporarily sensitive immediately afterward, but most clients can return to their usual activities the same day.
Because freshly exfoliated skin can be more sensitive to environmental exposure, appropriate skincare and daily broad-spectrum sunscreen are especially important following treatment. Your provider will also advise when to resume exfoliating acids, retinoids, or other active skincare products.
Dermaplaning can be performed periodically as part of an ongoing skincare plan, with treatment frequency determined according to the condition of the skin and individual goals.
Why Choose Alchemy Beauty Bar?
At Alchemy Beauty Bar, even seemingly simple treatments are approached intentionally. Dermaplaning is not performed simply because smoother skin is desired; the skin is first evaluated to determine whether physical exfoliation is appropriate and how the treatment fits within the client’s overall skincare strategy.
Care is delivered in a calm, discreet environment where education, technique, and long-term skin health guide each recommendation. The goal is refined renewal that complements the client’s natural complexion without unnecessary or aggressive treatment.
