Skin
Dermaplaning is a popular aesthetic treatment that removes fine hairs and dead skin cells on the face using a surgical-grade blade. Vellus hairs, often referred to as “peach fuzz,” can trap dirt and oils, causing breakouts, dullness, and uneven skin texture over time.
This non-invasive skin treatment gently exfoliates the skin to help combat these issues, creating a smoother, softer complexion with no downtime.
Benefits of Dermaplaning
- Smoother, more refined skin texture
- A brighter, more refreshed complexion
- Helps reduce pore congestion and buildup
- Improves absorption of skincare products

Lucas Center
The treatment is quick, comfortable, and requires no downtime, making it easy to fit into your routine. Each appointment begins with a cleanse of the skin, followed by controlled, light strokes across the treatment area to remove buildup and peach fuzz. The result is instantly smoother skin with a softer feel and a more polished look.
Dermaplaning can be performed on its own or paired with other treatments to enhance overall results, depending on your goals.
FAQ
We're here to answer your questions about dermaplaning in Knoxville.
Who is a good candidate for dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a great option for individuals looking to improve skin texture, remove peach fuzz, and achieve a smoother, more refreshed appearance. It’s suitable for most skin types and can be incorporated into a regular skincare routine.
What are the benefits of dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning helps create a smoother, brighter complexion while improving the absorption of skincare products. It also removes surface buildup that can contribute to dullness and uneven texture.
Does hair grow back darker, thicker, or faster?
No. Dermaplaning does not change the structure or growth rate of hair. This is a common misconception — hair will grow back at the same rate and texture as before.
Does dermaplaning cause scarring?
When performed by a licensed, experienced provider, dermaplaning is a safe and controlled skin treatment. Improper technique or at-home use may increase the risk of irritation or damage to the skin.
Can I dermaplane at home?
At-home tools are not the same as professional dermaplaning treatments. Non-medical-grade blades and lack of proper technique can lead to irritation or uneven results, which is why professional treatment is recommended.
What can I expect after dermaplaning?
There is no downtime with dermaplaning. You may experience slight redness immediately after, but most patients return to normal activities right away. Skin typically feels smoother and looks more refreshed immediately following treatment.
How long do results last?
Results generally last about 3-4 weeks, depending on your skin and hair growth cycle.
How should I care for my skin after treatment?
Following your provider’s aftercare instructions is key to maintaining your results. This typically includes keeping the skin hydrated and protected, along with avoiding unnecessary irritation.
