Professional Dermaplaning in Modesto at SkinRenew
Looking for Dermaplaning Modesto patients can trust for smoother, brighter, more refreshed-looking skin? SkinRenew Laser & Cosmetic Surgery offers professional dermaplaning treatments customized to your skin and your goals.
Dermaplaning is a gentle exfoliating treatment that uses a sterile surgical blade to carefully remove dead surface skin cells and fine facial hair, often called peach fuzz. The result is skin that feels smoother, softer, and more polished.
At SkinRenew, dermaplaning can also be customized with additional aesthetician treatments, allowing us to create a more personalized facial experience based on what your skin needs.
What Is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a professional exfoliation treatment that gently removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells along with fine vellus hair from the surface of the face.
As dead skin cells are removed, the skin can look brighter and feel smoother. Removing surface buildup can also help skincare products apply more evenly and can create a smooth canvas for makeup.
Dermaplaning is a popular option for patients who want refreshed-looking skin without a more aggressive exfoliating treatment.
Benefits of Dermaplaning
A professional dermaplaning treatment can help improve the appearance and feel of your skin by:
- Removing dead surface skin cells
- Removing fine facial hair and peach fuzz
- Smoothing the appearance of skin texture
- Creating a softer, smoother skin surface
- Brightening the appearance of dull-looking skin
- Helping skincare products apply more smoothly
- Creating a smooth canvas for makeup
- Giving the skin a fresh, polished appearance
Dermaplaning is customized to your skin, so your aesthetician can determine whether it is an appropriate treatment for you.
Customize Your Dermaplaning Treatment
One of the benefits of choosing SkinRenew is that your dermaplaning treatment does not have to be a one-size-fits-all service.
We can customize your dermaplaning with other treatments based on your skin and your goals.
Depending on what your skin needs, dermaplaning can be combined with:
Dermaplaning + Facial
Pairing dermaplaning with a customized facial allows your aesthetician to address additional skin concerns such as dryness, congestion, dullness, or uneven-looking texture.
This combination provides exfoliation followed by customized skincare designed specifically for your skin.
Dermaplaning + Oxygen Treatment
An oxygen treatment can be added to your dermaplaning service when you want to give your skin an extra refreshing, hydrating experience.
Your aesthetician can determine whether an oxygen treatment is an appropriate addition based on your skin and your desired results.
Dermaplaning + Korean Skin Booster
For patients interested in Korean skincare technology, dermaplaning can be customized with a Korean skin booster treatment when appropriate.
Korean skin boosters are designed to support hydrated, refreshed, healthy-looking skin. Combining a carefully selected skin treatment with dermaplaning allows your aesthetician to create a more customized experience rather than simply performing the same facial on every patient.
Your treatment combination will depend on your skin type, concerns, and goals.
Dermaplaning vs. Shaving
Dermaplaning is different from simply shaving the face.
Professional dermaplaning uses a sterile surgical blade held at a specific angle to carefully exfoliate the skin’s surface while removing fine vellus hair.
It is performed as a professional skincare treatment with the goal of improving the appearance and feel of the skin.
And no—dermaplaning does not cause facial hair to grow back thicker or darker. The hair may initially feel different as it grows back because it has been cut at the surface, but dermaplaning does not change the hair’s natural growth pattern.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning may be appropriate for patients who want to improve the appearance of:
- Dull-looking skin
- Rough skin texture
- Surface buildup
- Fine facial hair
- Uneven-looking texture
- Dry or flaky-looking skin
- Skin that looks tired or lackluster
Your aesthetician will evaluate your skin and determine whether dermaplaning is appropriate.
If you have an active skin condition, significant irritation, or certain types of active acne, another treatment may be recommended instead.
What to Expect During Your Dermaplaning Treatment
Your treatment begins with cleansing the skin and preparing it for professional exfoliation.
Your aesthetician then carefully glides a sterile surgical blade across the skin’s surface to remove dead skin cells and fine facial hair.
Depending on the treatment you select, your dermaplaning can then be followed by a customized facial, oxygen treatment, Korean skin booster, or another appropriate skincare service.
The treatment is designed to be comfortable and does not require significant downtime for most patients.
After treatment, your skin may appear brighter and feel noticeably smoother.
Is There Downtime After Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning typically involves little to no downtime.
Some patients may experience temporary mild redness or sensitivity immediately following treatment. Your aesthetician will provide appropriate aftercare recommendations based on your skin and the treatments performed.
Because your skin has been freshly exfoliated, it is especially important to protect it from sun exposure and follow your skincare professional’s recommendations.
How Often Should You Get Dermaplaning?
The ideal frequency depends on your skin, your skincare routine, and whether dermaplaning is being combined with other treatments.
Some patients choose dermaplaning periodically to maintain smooth, polished-looking skin, while others incorporate it into a customized facial program.
Your aesthetician can recommend a schedule based on your individual skin needs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dermaplaning
Does dermaplaning hurt?
Most patients find dermaplaning to be a comfortable treatment. You may feel the blade gently moving across the surface of your skin, but the treatment is not intended to be painful.
