Refresh and Restore Your Glow with Dermaplaning

At Athēnix Advanced Plastic Surgery in Irvine, we offer dermaplaning as a simple yet transformative treatment that revitalizes skin tone and texture. By carefully removing dead skin cells and fine facial hair, this non-invasive procedure restores a fresh, youthful glow with immediate results. Patients love dermaplaning for its ability to soften roughness, minimize dullness, and prepare the skin for deeper absorption of skincare products. Whether you’re looking to refresh tired skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines, or create the perfect base for makeup, dermaplaning is a safe, effective solution. Our expert providers in Irvine perform this treatment with precision and care, helping you reveal your healthiest complexion yet.

What Is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning uses a sterile surgical blade to gently exfoliate the surface of the skin. This process removes dead skin cells, built-up debris, and fine vellus hair (“peach fuzz”) that can make skin appear dull. The result is a smoother surface, allowing skincare products and treatments to penetrate more effectively.

Benefits of Dermaplaning

Patients in Irvine choose dermaplaning for:

  • Smoother, softer skin texture
  • Brighter and more radiant complexion
  • Improved absorption of skincare products
  • Reduction in fine lines and rough patches
  • A flawless base for makeup application
  • Immediate results with no downtime
  • Gentle treatment safe for most skin types

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be an excellent candidate for dermaplaning if you:

  • Notice dry or dull skin that lacks vibrancy
  • Want to minimize fine lines or rough texture
  • Prefer a non-invasive treatment with instant results
  • Are looking for an exfoliation method safe for sensitive skin

Additionally, dermaplaning is not recommended for patients with active acne outbreaks.

What to Expect During Treatment

Dermaplaning is performed in our Irvine office and typically takes 30–45 minutes:

  1. Your skin is cleansed and prepped.
  2. A sterile surgical blade is gently glided across the surface of your skin.
  3. Dead skin cells and fine hair are removed, revealing a fresh new layer.

The treatment is virtually painless and requires no recovery time.

Recovery and Results

After dermaplaning, you may notice slight redness that fades within a few hours. Results are visible immediately; skin feels softer, looks smoother, and has a refreshed glow. Patients often schedule treatments monthly to maintain optimal results.
