Remove the Surface Barrier. Everything Works Better After.
Dermaplaning removes two things at once: the accumulated dead skin layer that makes tone look flat and products absorb poorly, and the vellus hair that traps oil and debris against the skin surface. A sterile surgical blade drawn across the skin in short feathering strokes clears both in a single 30-minute session. Results are visible before you leave the room. Foundation sits differently. Serums absorb faster. Skin reflects light more evenly. And every other skincare treatment you use in the following weeks works measurably better, because the delivery barrier has been removed. At Tactus Health, every dermaplaning session is performed by a licensed Georgia aesthetician using a sterile single-use blade, under Dr. Ashar’s clinical oversight.
What Is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a physical exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile single-use surgical blade held at a 45-degree angle to the skin. The practitioner draws the blade across the face in short, controlled feathering strokes, removing the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of dead skin cells, along with the vellus hair above it. Both are cleared in a single pass with no chemical action, heat, or abrasive particles.
The result is immediate and twofold. Removing the dead skin layer produces instant visible smoothing and brightening. Removing the vellus hair eliminates the fine surface that traps oil and debris and diffuses light unevenly. The skin that remains is fresher, smoother, and significantly more receptive to the products applied afterward. Serums reach the viable epidermis more directly. Makeup sits on a clean, uniform surface without catching on fine hair or settling into texture.
Dermaplaning is one of the few professional exfoliation treatments safe during pregnancy, appropriate for sensitive and rosacea-prone skin, and compatible with most skin types. There are no acids, no heat, and no recovery time. Makeup can be applied immediately. Most patients schedule sessions every 4-6 weeks to align with the skin’s natural cell turnover cycle.
Book Your SessionWill the hair grow back thicker? No. Dermaplaning removes the hair shaft at the surface. The follicle is untouched. Hair returns exactly as it was, because the follicle that determines texture and color is below the skin surface and is not affected by the blade.
Sterile Blade. Precise Angle. Single Pass.
The sterile surgical blade is held at a 45-degree angle to the skin surface and drawn in short, controlled feathering strokes. The angle, pressure, and stroke length are the technical variables that determine how thoroughly the stratum corneum is removed and whether the skin surface is left smooth or irritated.
At Tactus Health, technique is everything. Our licensed aestheticians perform dermaplaning with the precision and consistency that produces reliable results across every session. A new sterile single-use blade for every patient. A skin assessment before every session. The same clinical standard applied to your facial exfoliation as to every other service we offer.

Dermaplaning FAQ
No. This is one of the most persistent skincare myths and it has no physiological basis. Dermaplaning removes the hair shaft at the surface of the skin. The follicle below the surface is completely untouched. Hair regrows from the follicle, which determines its texture, color, and thickness. Because the follicle is unaffected by the blade, the hair returns exactly as it was before the session.
Every 4-6 weeks is the standard recommendation. This aligns with the skin’s natural cell turnover cycle, the window during which dead skin cells accumulate enough to make the treatment meaningful and vellus hair returns to a length where removal produces visible improvement. Many patients pair dermaplaning with their monthly facial appointment.
Yes, with proper technique. Dermaplaning uses no chemical actives, acids, heat, or abrasive particles. For patients with sensitive skin, rosacea, or reactive skin who cannot tolerate chemical peels or aggressive exfoliation, dermaplaning is often one of the only professional exfoliation treatments they can have without post-treatment irritation. Your aesthetician assesses your skin before beginning and adjusts the technique accordingly.
Dermaplaning is generally considered one of the safest professional exfoliation treatments during pregnancy because it uses no chemical actives, acids, retinoids, or heat. It is purely physical. Inform your aesthetician at booking and at your session. Your aesthetician confirms appropriateness based on your current health status and skin condition.
Before: avoid retinoids and acid-based products for 48 hours, avoid active sun exposure and tan. Do not wax or thread the face in the week before. After: apply SPF immediately and daily for a minimum of one week, as the fresh skin surface is more UV-sensitive. Avoid active chemical exfoliation for 5-7 days. Avoid direct sun and heat (saunas) for 24-48 hours. Full aftercare instructions provided at your session.
The combination is consistently the most popular option at Tactus Health. Dermaplaning first removes the stratum corneum and vellus hair, clearing the surface barrier. The hydra facial vortex serum infusion that follows penetrates to a significantly greater depth than it would on unprepared skin. The combined result in clarity, hydration, and glow consistently exceeds what either treatment produces on its own. Combined price: $185 (vs $195 separately).
Contraindications include active acne breakouts or pustules in the treatment area, open wounds, active skin infections, very recent chemical peels or laser resurfacing (allow 2-4 weeks), and patients currently on isotretinoin (Accutane). Your aesthetician confirms all contraindications before beginning the session. If you have any concerns about your current skin condition or medications, inform your aesthetician at booking and again at your session.
