Why Dermaplaning Is a Must-Try Treatment in St. Louis Park & Woodbury, MN

When it comes to achieving silky-smooth skin with zero downtime, dermaplaning is a patient favorite. At Physician Skin Services, we  offer expert dermaplaning treatments that instantly brighten and smooth your complexion.


What Is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive procedure that uses a sterile medical blade to gently exfoliate the skin’s surface while removing fine facial hair (peach fuzz). The result is fresh, smooth, glowing skin that absorbs skincare products more effectively.

What Does Dermaplaning Treat?

Dermaplaning is ideal for:

  • Dull or uneven skin tone
  • Rough patches and dry skin
  • Fine facial hair (vellus hairs)
  • Congestion and buildup on the skin’s surface
  • Prepping skin for flawless makeup application

It’s quick, painless, and requires no downtime—perfect before a big event or as part of your monthly skincare routine.


Types of Dermaplaning Treatments

At Physician Skin Services, Dermaplaning can be performed as a stand-alone treatment or combined with other services for enhanced results:

  • Standard Dermaplaning – Gently exfoliates and removes peach fuzz for instant smoothness and glow.
  • Dermaplaning + Chemical Peel – Boosts penetration of the peel for deeper results.
  • Dermaplaning + Facial – Maximizes hydration and rejuvenation, leaving skin nourished and radiant.


How to Prepare & Care for Your Skin

Before Dermaplaning:

  • Avoid using retinoids, exfoliants, or harsh skincare for 3–5 days.
  • Let your provider know if you have a history of cold sores or skin sensitivities.

After Dermaplaning:

  • Keep your skin hydrated with a gentle moisturizer.
  • Apply sunscreen daily to protect your fresh skin.
  • Avoid harsh scrubs or active ingredients (like AHAs, BHAs, or retinoids) for a few days.
