Dermaplaning is a gentle exfoliation treatment that removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair from the surface of the skin, revealing a smoother, more even complexion. It is often used to improve texture, enhance product absorption, and create a clean foundation for other treatments.
At GloLab, dermaplaning is performed with precision and intention—not as a routine add-on, but as a treatment selected based on your skin’s condition and needs. It can be performed as a standalone facial or incorporated into other services where additional surface refinement is beneficial.
The goal is not to over-exfoliate but to create balance—leaving the skin smoother, clearer, and better prepared for ongoing care while maintaining its natural integrity.
What it treats:
• Dull or uneven skin texture
• Dry or rough skin buildup
• Fine surface irregularities
• Uneven makeup application
• Reduced product absorption
Target areas:
• Face
• Cheeks
• Forehead
• Jawline
• Chin
• Smooths skin texture instantly
• Enhances product absorption
• Improves makeup application
• Brightens overall skin appearance
• Provides gentle, non-invasive exfoliation
Dermaplaning uses a sterile surgical blade to gently remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells along with fine vellus hair. This controlled exfoliation helps reveal a smoother skin surface and allows skincare products to penetrate more effectively.
Because the treatment works only at the surface level, it does not disrupt deeper layers of the skin. Instead, it supports natural skin renewal by removing buildup that can contribute to dullness or uneven texture.
At GloLab, technique and pressure are carefully controlled to ensure the treatment remains gentle, precise, and appropriate for your skin type.
Skin appears smoother, softer, and more even immediately after treatment.
Texture is noticeably refined, and the skin reflects light more evenly, creating a subtle brightness. Makeup applies more smoothly, and skincare products absorb more effectively.
The result is not dramatic—it is a clean, polished surface that feels naturally refreshed.
Dermaplaning is a gentle treatment with minimal risk when performed correctly. Temporary sensitivity or mild redness may occur but typically resolves quickly.
It may not be suitable for active acne or highly inflamed skin. Frequency should be based on your skin’s needs rather than routine scheduling to avoid over-exfoliation.
Will dermaplaning make hair grow back thicker?
No, hair grows back at the same texture and rate.
Is there any downtime?
No, you can return to normal activities immediately.
How often should I get dermaplaning?
Every 4–6 weeks, depending on your skin.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes, it is often paired with facials or skin treatments.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, when performed carefully and appropriately.
