Achieving smooth, radiant, and glowing skin has never been easier, thanks to dermaplaning. This non-invasive facial treatment removes dead skin cells and peach fuzz, leaving your face looking fresh, rejuvenated, and flawless. At You Glow Aesthetics in Toronto, we offer professional dermaplaning facials that help reveal brighter, smoother skin with minimal downtime. In this article, we’ll explore the benefits of dermaplaning, how it works, and why you should consider booking your next facial with us at You Glow Aesthetics Toronto.
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile surgical scalpel to gently scrape off dead skin cells and vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the face. This process not only helps to exfoliate the skin but also removes any fine hair, which can trap dirt and oils, resulting in a smoother, more even skin texture. The treatment can be performed on all skin types and is particularly beneficial for individuals with dry or rough skin texture, or those looking to improve skin tone and clarity.
Unlike other forms of exfoliation, dermaplaning is a non-chemical treatment, making it safe for those with sensitive skin who may experience irritation from harsher exfoliation methods. The procedure is quick, painless, and requires no downtime, making it a perfect option for busy individuals seeking a quick skincare boost.
How Does Dermaplaning Work?
The process of dermaplaning is straightforward and gentle. Here’s what to expect during your treatment at You Glow Aesthetics:
- Cleansing: The treatment begins with a deep cleansing of the face to remove any makeup, dirt, or impurities from the skin.
- Exfoliation: A licensed and trained esthetician uses a sterile surgical scalpel to gently exfoliate the skin’s surface. The scalpel is held at a 45-degree angle to the skin and glided across the face in small, controlled strokes to remove dead skin cells and fine hair.
- Moisturizing and Protection: After the exfoliation, a soothing moisturizer is applied to the skin, followed by sunscreen to protect the freshly exfoliated skin from sun exposure.
The entire procedure typically takes around 30 to 45 minutes, and most people find it to be completely pain-free. Some individuals may experience slight redness immediately after the treatment, but this subsides quickly. The results are noticeable right away—smooth, soft, and glowing skin.
Benefits of Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning offers numerous benefits that can leave your skin looking youthful, radiant, and healthy. Here are just a few reasons why dermaplaning should be a regular part of your skincare routine:
1. Smooth, Silky Skin
The primary benefit of dermaplaning is the immediate improvement in skin texture. By removing dead skin cells and peach fuzz, dermaplaning leaves the skin feeling smooth and soft to the touch. This makes your skin more receptive to moisturizers and serums, allowing products to penetrate deeper and be more effective.
2. Improved Skin Tone and Clarity
Exfoliating the skin helps to reveal fresh, new skin cells and promotes cell turnover. As a result, dermaplaning can improve uneven skin tone and texture, leading to a brighter, more even complexion. For those dealing with dull, dry skin, dermaplaning can provide a quick and effective solution.
3. Minimized Appearance of Fine Lines
By removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, dermaplaning can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment promotes collagen production, which is essential for maintaining youthful, plump skin.
4. No More Peach Fuzz
Many people find that their peach fuzz (fine hair) can make their skin look dull and uneven. Dermaplaning removes this fine hair, leaving the skin looking smoother and more radiant. Plus, it won’t cause the hair to grow back thicker or darker, which is a common misconception.
5. Enhances Makeup Application
Dermaplaning creates a smooth canvas for makeup application. Without dead skin cells or peach fuzz, your makeup will go on more evenly and last longer. This makes it a great pre-makeup treatment for special events or photoshoots.
6. Non-Invasive and Safe for All Skin Types
Dermaplaning is a safe, non-invasive procedure that works on all skin types, including sensitive skin. Unlike chemical peels or other treatments that may cause irritation, dermaplaning is a gentle way to exfoliate without the risk of chemical reactions or irritation.

Aftercare for Dermaplaning
Although there is no downtime after dermaplaning, it’s essential to follow some simple aftercare guidelines to ensure the best results:
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Freshly exfoliated skin is more sensitive to the sun, so be sure to wear sunscreen daily and avoid excessive sun exposure for a few days after your treatment.
