Silky Smooth Skin Starts Here—with Gentle Exfoliation by Dr. Jessica Johnson
If your skin feels dull, dry, or uneven—or your makeup never sits quite right—dermaplaning might be your secret to a smoother, more radiant complexion. At Elegance Renewed MedSpa in Pickens, SC, we offer professional dermaplaning facials that gently exfoliate dead skin cells and remove fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) in one relaxing, zero-downtime treatment.
Performed by Dr. Jessica Johnson, our dermaplaning facials are more than just skincare—they’re a gateway to healthier, brighter skin and better product absorption. Whether you're prepping for a big event or just need a refresh, dermaplaning offers instant, glowing results.
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique that uses a specialized surgical blade to gently remove the outermost layer of dead skin and fine hair from your face. The treatment is non-invasive, painless, and delivers immediate improvements in tone and texture.
It’s a popular choice for patients who want smoother, softer skin without harsh chemicals or downtime—and it’s safe for nearly all skin types.
What Are the Benefits of Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is one of the most effective ways to achieve smooth, glowing skin quickly and comfortably. Benefits include:
- Smoother texture and a softer feel
- Instant radiance with no downtime
- Improved product absorption—your serums and moisturizers work better
- Flawless makeup application
- Gentle removal of peach fuzz (vellus hair)
- Reduction in mild acne scarring, fine lines, and dullness
- A perfect pre-event glow-up or regular part of your skincare routine
It’s also a great option for patients who are pregnant, nursing, or sensitive to active ingredients that might be found in chemical peels or stronger exfoliants.
What Can I Expect During My Appointment?
Personalized Consultation
As with every treatment at Elegance Renewed MedSpa, your facial begins with a consultation with Dr. Jessica Johnson. She’ll assess your skin type, talk through your concerns, and make sure dermaplaning is the right fit for your goals.
The Procedure
- Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed and prepped
- Using a sterile, medical-grade blade, Dr. Johnson will gently scrape away the top layer of dead skin and hair
- The procedure is painless and relaxing, often compared to a gentle tickling or brushing sensation
- A hydrating mask, soothing serum, or SPF may be applied afterward
The full treatment typically takes 30–45 minutes, and there’s no downtime—you can go back to your day glowing.
Will My Hair Grow Back Thicker?
This is a common myth—but no, dermaplaning does not change your hair texture or growth rate. The hair removed is fine vellus hair, and it will grow back at the same rate and texture as before. You won’t suddenly have stubble or coarse regrowth.
Dr. Johnson will explain this during your appointment to ensure you're fully comfortable and confident.
How Often Should I Get Dermaplaning?
Most patients benefit from dermaplaning every 4 to 6 weeks, which aligns with the skin’s natural renewal cycle. Regular treatments:
- Keep your complexion smooth and clear
- Help manage clogged pores and dullness
- Maximize the effects of your skincare products
Dr. Johnson will create a customized schedule that fits your skin needs and goals, whether you're preparing for a one-time event or working toward long-term improvements.
Can Dermaplaning Be Combined with Other Treatments?
Absolutely. In fact, dermaplaning is often used as a pre-treatment to enhance the absorption and effectiveness of:
- Chemical peels
- Microneedling
- Medical-grade serums
It’s also a popular monthly maintenance treatment for patients using anti-aging or acne-targeted skincare regimens. At Elegance Renewed MedSpa, we can bundle dermaplaning with other services for enhanced results and convenience.
Is Dermaplaning Safe for My Skin Type?
Yes—dermaplaning is safe for all skin tones and most skin types, including sensitive skin. However, it may not be recommended for patients with active acne, eczema, or certain rosacea flare-ups.
During your consultation, Dr. Johnson will evaluate your skin and help determine if dermaplaning is right for you—or if another exfoliation method would be more appropriate.
