DERMAPLANING IN UPPER EAST SIDE
REVEAL RADIANT, SMOOTH SKIN WITH PROFESSIONAL DERMAPLANING
At Kline Dermatology, we offer state-of-the-art dermaplaning, a precise exfoliation treatment that removes dull surface debris and fine vellus hair (commonly known as “peach fuzz”) to instantly reveal smoother, more luminous skin. Using a specialized medical instrument, our trained providers gently exfoliate the outermost layer of dead skin cells, leaving your complexion refreshed and glowing. This non-invasive procedure is often followed by a light chemical peel or a customized mask for enhanced results and long-lasting radiance.
Dermaplaning is ideal for individuals who want a professional-grade skin rejuvenation treatment without downtime. Whether you’re preparing for an event or maintaining a consistent skincare routine, dermaplaning at Kline Dermatology delivers noticeable improvements in skin tone, texture, and clarity.
WHAT IS DERMAPLANING?
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique performed by a licensed medical professional. During the procedure, a sterile, single-use surgical blade is gently swept across the skin’s surface to remove dead skin cells, impurities, and fine facial hair. This process promotes cellular renewal and allows for deeper penetration of skincare products.
Because dermaplaning is non-invasive and chemical-free, it’s suitable for nearly all skin types, including sensitive skin. The result is a smoother, brighter complexion with an immediate, natural glow.
HOW DERMAPLANING WORKS
Over time, skin can accumulate layers of dead cells, oils, and environmental buildup that dull its appearance. Dermaplaning effectively removes this barrier, encouraging healthy skin turnover and improving overall skin function. The technique also smooths the skin’s surface, which helps makeup glide on more evenly and enhances the absorption of serums and moisturizers.
At Kline Dermatology, every dermaplaning session is performed with precision and care. Following exfoliation, our providers often apply a light chemical peel or a customized hydrating mask to further refine and nourish the skin. This combination treatment maximizes both the immediate glow and long-term skin health.
BENEFITS OF DERMAPLANING
Patients love dermaplaning for its simplicity, safety, and transformative effects. Here are some of the key benefits:
-
No Downtime: Return to your normal activities immediately after treatment.
-
Instant Results: Enjoy smoother, brighter skin right away.
-
Improved Product Absorption: Skincare products penetrate more effectively, increasing their benefits.
-
Flawless Makeup Application: Foundation and makeup appear more even and natural on freshly exfoliated skin.
-

Dermaplaning also complements other cosmetic procedures, including chemical peels, microneedling, and laser treatments, by preparing the skin for enhanced results.
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR APPOINTMENT
Your dermaplaning appointment at Kline Dermatology typically begins with a thorough skin evaluation to determine your specific needs and goals. After cleansing and preparing your skin, your provider will use a sterile dermaplaning instrument to gently exfoliate your face in precise, feather-like strokes. The process is comfortable, and most patients describe it as relaxing.
Once exfoliation is complete, a light chemical peel or customized mask may be applied to further rejuvenate and hydrate the skin. The entire session typically lasts about 30 to 45 minutes. You’ll leave the office with noticeably softer, smoother skin and a refreshed glow.
TREATMENT FREQUENCY AND AFTERCARE
For optimal results, dermaplaning is recommended every 3 to 4 weeks, often in conjunction with a chemical peel. This schedule aligns with the skin’s natural regeneration cycle, maintaining a consistently smooth and luminous appearance.
After your treatment, you can immediately resume normal activities. To maintain your results, follow these aftercare guidelines:
-
Avoid direct sun exposure for 24 to 48 hours and use a broad-spectrum SPF daily.
-
Refrain from exfoliating products or retinoids for two to three days post-treatment.
-
Keep skin hydrated with a gentle, nourishing moisturizer.
-
Avoid heavy makeup for the first 24 hours to allow the skin to breathe.
Following these steps will help preserve your glow and protect your newly revealed skin.
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR DERMAPLANING?
Dermaplaning is safe and effective for most skin types and tones. It’s an excellent option for those seeking to improve dullness, uneven texture, or fine hair on the face. Ideal candidates include individuals who:
-
Want smoother, brighter skin without downtime
-
Prefer a non-invasive exfoliation method
-
Experience buildup or clogged pores
-
Have fine facial hair that makes makeup application uneven
-
Are pregnant or nursing and cannot use certain chemical exfoliants
However, patients with active acne, open lesions, or certain skin conditions may be advised to postpone treatment until the skin has healed. During your consultation, our providers will determine whether dermaplaning is the right approach for your skin.
COMBING DERMAPLANING WITH OTHER TREATMENTS
Dermaplaning works beautifully as a standalone treatment but can also enhance other aesthetic procedures. When paired with a chemical peel, for example, exfoliation allows the peel’s active ingredients to penetrate more deeply and evenly. It also prepares the skin for laser treatments and microneedling by creating a clean, smooth surface.
At Kline Dermatology, your provider may recommend a personalized skincare plan that incorporates dermaplaning alongside complementary services. This approach maximizes both immediate and long-term improvements in your skin’s tone, texture, and radiance.
