Patients can expect:

- Improved texture and radiance
- No downtime
Dermaplaning can typically be performed every 4–6 weeks as part of a regular skin maintenance routine.
Dermaplaning for Smooth, Radiant Skin
Smooth, radiant skin begins with proper exfoliation. Over time, dead skin cells and fine facial hair can accumulate on the skin’s surface, contributing to dullness, uneven texture, and reduced effectiveness of skincare products. Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation treatment designed to gently remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hair—often referred to as “peach fuzz”—revealing a smoother, brighter complexion with immediate results.
At Corrado Skincare & Aesthetics, dermaplaning in Philadelphia is performed with precision and care, ensuring safe exfoliation while supporting overall skin health.
What Is the Purpose of Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a controlled exfoliation technique that improves skin texture and clarity by removing surface buildup that can dull the complexion.
- Primary purposes of dermaplaning include:
- Exfoliating built-up dead skin cells
- Improving skin smoothness and texture
- Brightening dull or uneven skin tone
- Removing fine facial hair that can trap oil and debris
- Enhancing absorption of professional and at-home skincare products
- Creating a smooth, flawless canvas for makeup application
This treatment focuses on immediate skin refinement without irritation or downtime.
How Dermaplaning Is Done
Dermaplaning is a carefully performed, step-by-step treatment designed for safety and effectiveness.
Cleanse & Prep
The skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove makeup, oil, and impurities. The face is fully dried to ensure optimal blade glide and treatment safety.
Skin Assessment
A professional evaluation is performed to confirm the skin is appropriate for dermaplaning and to identify areas that should be avoided, such as active breakouts or irritation.
Dermaplaning Technique
Using a sterile, single-use, medical-grade blade held at a precise 45-degree angle, the provider gently glides the blade across the skin in short, controlled strokes. This technique safely removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair without cutting or damaging healthy skin.
Post-Exfoliation Care
Soothing, hydrating serums and moisturizers are applied to restore the skin barrier and calm the skin following exfoliation.
Sun Protection: Broad-spectrum SPF is applied to protect the newly exfoliated skin and maintain treatment results.
