Dermaplaning in Carson
Instantly Smooth, Brighten, and Refresh Your Skin
Tired of dull skin, uneven texture, or peach fuzz that keeps makeup from sitting right? If you’re looking for a gentle yet effective way to instantly brighten your skin, Dermaplaning in Carson at QD Skinnovations may be the perfect solution.
This non-invasive exfoliating treatment uses a sterile surgical blade to carefully remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (aka peach fuzz) from the surface of your face. The result? Skin that looks smoother, feels softer, and reflects light beautifully—all with zero downtime.
Whether you have an upcoming event, want better skincare absorption, or just love that post-facial glow, dermaplaning can help you achieve your skincare goals quickly and effectively.
What Is Dermaplaning and How Does It Work?
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique performed by a trained skincare professional. During the treatment, a sterile, medical-grade blade is gently glided across the skin’s surface to remove:
- Dead skin cells
- Built-up debris
- Fine facial hair (peach fuzz)
By eliminating this outer layer, dermaplaning reveals a fresh, radiant layer underneath. This allows for better penetration of skincare products and creates a smooth canvas for flawless makeup application.
Safe and Effective for All Skin Types
Dermaplaning is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin. It is a quick, pain-free procedure that doesn’t involve chemicals, making it a great choice for those looking for a gentler form of exfoliation.
Benefits of Dermaplaning
Clients love dermaplaning for its ability to deliver an immediate boost in glow and skin texture—but its benefits go even deeper:
- Instant radiance: Removes the top layer of dull, dead skin
- Smoother texture: Makeup glides on beautifully and lasts longer
- Better product absorption: Skincare serums and moisturizers penetrate more effectively
- Reduces appearance of fine lines and acne scars
- No downtime: You can return to your day immediately after your treatment
Dermaplaning is especially popular before big events or photoshoots when you want your skin to look camera-ready.
Ideal Treatment Pairings for Maximum Glow

Ask your provider which combination is best suited to your skin goals.
What to Expect Before, During, and After Your Dermaplaning Session
Before Your Treatment
There is no special prep required. However, we recommend avoiding retinol or strong exfoliants for at least 3 days prior to your appointment.
During Your Session
Your provider will begin by cleansing the skin, then use a sterile blade to carefully exfoliate your face using light, feathering strokes. The treatment is completely painless and typically takes 30–45 minutes.
Aftercare and Results
- Your skin may appear slightly pink but will feel baby soft and look radiant
- Avoid sun exposure and exfoliating products for 24–48 hours
- Apply SPF daily to protect your newly exfoliated skin

FAQs About Dermaplaning
Will dermaplaning make my facial hair grow back thicker?
No. Dermaplaning does not change the structure or color of your hair. It will grow back at the same rate and texture.
How often should I get dermaplaning?
Most clients come in every 4 weeks to maintain smoothness and radiance.
Is dermaplaning safe for acne-prone skin?
Yes, as long as you don’t have active breakouts. It can help reduce clogged pores and improve product absorption for clearer skin over time.
Can I wear makeup after dermaplaning?
Absolutely. In fact, your makeup will look smoother and more flawless thanks to the exfoliated surface.
Is there any downtime?
There’s no downtime, though we recommend avoiding direct sun and exfoliants for 1–2 days after treatment.
