Dermaplaning

If you are planning on receiving one of our treatments, we may recommend adding dermaplaning immediately beforehand. This can help prepare the skin for other treatments and offer its own benefits. At Anh Vu, M.D., we offer dermaplaning to patients in Daytona Beach, Jacksonville, Palm Coast, and St. Augustine.

What is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a safe and gentle method of skin exfoliation. It removes the outermost layer of skin, ridding it of peach fuzz and evening skin texture. By removing the top layer of dead skin, this treatment can help smooth skin and reveal a healthier, more vibrant complexion. We most often use dermaplaning to prepare skin for new routines or treatments. Dermaplaning helps reveal skin that is better prepared to receive and react to treatments such as chemical peels. One of our most popular combinations is dermaplaning followed by a VI Peel, which yields amazing rejuvenation results.

How is Dermaplaning Administered?

Dermaplaning uses a fine scalpel to gently shave off the outermost layer of skin, removing dead skin cells and peach fuzz. This comfortable process takes only a few minutes.

What Can I Expect After My Dermaplaning Treatment?

After a dermaplaning treatment, patients can expect mild redness that may last up to two days. After the redness fades, you will notice skin that looks healthier and feels softer. Patients can achieve even more significant skin rejuvenation results by combining dermaplaning with treatments like chemical peels.

Am I A Good Candidate for Dermaplaning?

If you want to improve skin texture or prepare your skin for other treatments, you may be a good candidate for dermaplaning. If you think you are a good candidate, call us today to schedule a consultation with Dr. Anh Vu. During your consultation, Dr. Vu will review all possible treatments with you and help you choose the best option based on the results you hope to achieve. Dermaplaning is considered a cosmetic treatment, meaning that it isn’t covered by insurance. However, we accept a variety of payment options and financing to make our services accessible to all of our patients.

Medical dermaplaning can soften skin and prepare it for other treatments, delivering amazing results. Dr. Anh Vu recommends dermaplaning alongside chemical peels and offers both treatments to men and women in St. Augustine, Jacksonville, Daytona Beach, and Palm Coast.
