Dermaplaning
Smooth. Bright. Unfiltered.
If your glow’s been hiding behind dullness and buildup, dermaplaning could be your skin’s new favorite secret. At Pur Aesthetics and Wellness in Granger, IN, dermaplaning is more than just exfoliation—it’s an instant refresh for dull, tired skin. This gentle, non-invasive treatment removes dead skin and fine facial hair (aka peach fuzz) to reveal a brighter, smoother, and more radiant complexion.
What Is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation treatment that sweeps away dead skin and peach fuzz to instantly smooth, brighten, and refresh your face. It’s a go-to for glowing up before an event, giving your skin that polished finish, or just making your skincare (and makeup) go on like a dream. No harsh ingredients. No downtime. Just fresh, radiant skin—with better product absorption to boot.
What Can Dermaplaning Treat?
Dermaplaning effectively addresses a variety of surface-level skin concerns, including:
- Dull or uneven skin tone
- Fine vellus hair (peach fuzz)
- Congested pores and buildup
- Rough or uneven texture
- Minor acne scarring
- Dry patches and flakiness
How It Works
During dermaplaning, a trained provider holds the skin taut and gently glides a single-use surgical blade at a 45-degree angle across the skin. This motion exfoliates dead skin cells and lifts fine hairs, without penetrating the deeper layers of skin. The result? A clean, ultra-smooth surface that helps active ingredients penetrate more effectively and makes your skin look instantly revitalized.
Dermaplaning Benefits
Say goodbye to flaky patches and makeup that clings to texture. This is the glow-up your skin deserves.
Instantly Smoother Skin
You don’t need a magnifying mirror to see the difference. Your skin will feel soft as silk the moment you leave the treatment room.
Flawless Makeup Application
No more foundation settling into dry patches or clinging to peach fuzz. Dermaplaning creates a smooth canvas for even, airbrushed makeup.
Better Product Absorption
Your skincare products just got a promotion. Without the barrier of dead skin, serums and moisturizers can do their job more effectively.
Zero Downtime, All Reward
You can literally book this on your lunch break. It’s that gentle. No redness, no peeling—just a healthy, fresh glow.
No Harsh Ingredients Needed
Perfect for sensitive skin or anyone avoiding acids or chemical exfoliants. Dermaplaning relies on technique, not formulas, for results.
Boosts the Power of Other Treatments
Dermaplaning sets the stage for better results from your facials, chemical peels, and masks. With dead skin and buildup out of the way, your skin is more receptive—and your treatments more effective.
Gentle Hair Removal (Bonus!)
Peach fuzz doesn’t stand a chance. While it’s not a hair removal treatment per se, the blade removes fine hairs as it exfoliates.
Dermaplaning Treatment Process: What To Expect
Before
Your appointment begins with a personalized consultation. We’ll talk through your skin goals, sensitivities, and current skincare routine to make sure dermaplaning is the right fit. No major prep required, though we may ask you to pause any exfoliating products a few days prior.
During
You’ll recline comfortably while your provider performs the treatment using precise, light strokes across your face. The session usually takes about 30 minutes and is completely painless. Every facial at Pur Aesthetics includes a relaxing scalp, shoulder, arm, and hand massage—because self-care should feel just as good as it looks.
After
There’s no downtime, but your skin may be a little more sensitive to sunlight, so we’ll apply SPF before you leave. Stick to gentle skincare for 24-48 hours, and avoid active ingredients like retinol or AHAs until your provider gives the green light.
Results Timeline
You’ll see (and feel) results immediately. Skin looks fresher, smoother, and more radiant right away. For continued benefits, we recommend monthly dermaplaning sessions as part of a regular skincare routine.
Am I a Good Candidate for Dermaplaning?
Most skin types can benefit from dermaplaning, especially those dealing with dryness, dullness, or a rough texture. It’s a safe option for pregnant or breastfeeding clients who want exfoliation without chemical ingredients. However, dermaplaning may not be suitable if you have active acne, open wounds, or certain skin conditions like rosacea or eczema in flare-up stages. A consultation with one of our licensed providers will determine whether dermaplaning is right for you.
Questions? We’ve Got Answers!
Will my facial hair grow back thicker or darker?
Nope, that’s a common myth. Dermaplaning only removes the soft vellus hair on the surface of the skin. It does not affect the follicle itself, so hair grows back at the same texture and rate.
How often should I get dermaplaning?
Most clients benefit from monthly sessions. This aligns with the skin’s natural renewal cycle and helps maintain consistent results over time.
Can I combine dermaplaning with other treatments?
Yes! Dermaplaning pairs beautifully with facials, chemical peels, and LED therapy. Removing that top layer of dead skin enhances the effectiveness of many treatments.
Is dermaplaning safe for sensitive skin?
Absolutely. In fact, many clients with sensitive skin prefer dermaplaning over chemical exfoliants. It’s non-irritating when performed by a skilled provider.
Is there any risk of cuts?
While dermaplaning uses a sharp blade, the procedure is extremely safe when performed by a trained professional. Minor nicks are rare and typically heal quickly.
What should I avoid after my treatment?
Skip harsh exfoliants, retinoids, or intense heat (like saunas) for 24-48 hours. Stick to hydrating, soothing skincare and always apply sunscreen to protect your fresh new skin.
