Gently Exfoliate, Smooth, and Illuminate Your Skin with a Luxurious Facial Experience
Looking to revive dull or dry skin with an instant glow? This gentle yet effective exfoliation treatment softly lifts away dead skin cells, buildup, and fine vellus hair for a smoother, more radiant complexion. By clearing the surface, dermaplaning enhances product absorption, refines texture, and creates the perfect canvas for makeup. The result is beautifully polished skin that looks luminous and feels refreshed.
Essential Details Behind This Glow-Enhancing Treatment
A buildup of dead skin and fine vellus hair can clog follicles, trap oil, and debris, and dull your skin’s natural radiance. Dermaplaning provides a refined solution by gently sweeping away surface impurities with a sterile scalpel and feather-light strokes. This non-invasive exfoliation not only clears congestion but also enhances product absorption, allowing makeup to glide on effortlessly.
Ideal for sensitive skin and safe for pregnant or breastfeeding women, this treatment delivers visible smoothness without the use of active ingredients. It is a luxurious yet gentle option for clients seeking a fresh, healthy glow. Our clients in Calgary and the surrounding areas trust SKIN Clinics for luxurious, results-driven skincare tailored to their individual needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
+ Will my hair grow back thicker, coarser, or darker after dermaplaning?
Not at all. The texture and growth of your hair will return just as it naturally does, with no change in thickness or color.
+ Will dermaplaning increase the amount of hair on my face?
No. The treatment does not alter the number of hair follicles. Some clients simply become more aware of regrowth after experiencing smooth, fuzz-free skin.
+ Is there any downtime after a dermaplaning facial?
Usually not. Many clients adore combining dermaplaning with other facials or booking it right before a special occasion. Depending on skin type, some individuals may experience mild sensitivity.
+ Is this treatment safe to use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
Certainly! Dermaplaning is a top choice for expecting or nursing clients seeking exfoliation, as it uses no active ingredients. Plus, post-treatment care is tailored just for your safety and comfort.
+ Can I wear makeup after my appointment?
After treatment, give your skin a 12-hour breather. For tailored advice, consult our SKIN experts or dermatologists, who can guide you based on your unique skin type.
+ How often should I schedule dermaplaning?
To achieve radiant, smooth skin, schedule treatments every 4 to 6 weeks. This routine keeps your complexion fresh and glowing between visits.
