Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation treatment that delivers fresher, healthier-looking skin with no chemicals and no downtime. Clients looking for dermaplaning in Albany, NY, can find expert care at Spa One, where our licensed estheticians perform this precise, gentle treatment to help you look and feel your best.
What Is Dermaplaning Used to Correct?
Reveal a brighter, smoother complexion by removing dead skin cells with dermaplaning treatments. Not only does dermaplaning exfoliate the skin, but it can also take off peach fuzz (vellus hair). Even better, dermaplaning treatments can prepare the skin for other rejuvenation treatments.
Am I a Good Candidate For Dermaplaning In Albany, NY?
Dermaplaning is an excellent option for clients who want to improve skin texture and brightness without using chemicals or undergoing lengthy recovery periods. It’s especially well-suited for those dealing with a dull complexion, dry skin, or unwanted facial hair. Clients with active acne breakouts, rosacea, or highly sensitive skin should speak with one of our licensed estheticians to explore whether dermaplaning or an alternative treatment is the right choice.

The Dermaplaning Procedure
The treatment begins with our esthetician cleaning and thoroughly drying your skin. Then, while pulling the skin tight, she holds a special surgical blade at an angle and uses short, swift strokes to scrape off the dead cells and peach fuzz. The sensation is very similar to that felt when shaving your legs, with little to no discomfort. The entire process usually takes about 45 minutes, with periodic sessions typically scheduled at least a month apart.
After Your Session
Dermaplaning requires no downtime, making recovery as straightforward as returning to your normal routine the same day. To protect your newly refreshed skin, apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 and limit prolonged sun exposure, since freshly exfoliated skin is more vulnerable to sun damage.
Using professional-grade skincare products at home after your treatments can further nourish your skin. The duration of your results will largely depend on your daily skincare regimen and how consistently you protect your skin from the sun.
When Will I See Results?
After a dermaplaning treatment, your skin will immediately look more radiant with enhanced skin tone and texture. All your peach fuzz will be gone, leaving your skin feeling softer than ever.

Dermaplaning FAQs
Dermaplaning Or Microdermabrasion?
Both of these treatments exfoliate the skin using different techniques. Microdermabrasion gently sprays the skin with micro-crystals that are then immediately vacuumed along with skin cells loosened by the crystals. Clients also have the option of adding dermaplaning to HydraFacial® MD or microneedling treatments.
Will facial hair removed by dermaplaning grow back darker?
That’s a common concern we hear from clients at our med spa. It’s actually an old wives’ tale that peach fuzz becomes darker once it’s removed. It grows back at the same rate and with the same texture as it had before dermaplaning.
Can I do this myself at home?
Even though the sensation resembles shaving your legs, a dermaplaning treatment goes beyond that. The specialized blade our estheticians use is extremely sharp, so you should only have a licensed specialist perform this treatment.
