Smoother Skin. Better Product Absorption. Immediate Results.

Dermaplaning delivers professional exfoliation in its most direct form: a sterile surgical blade removes the stratum corneum, the dead surface layer of skin, and the vellus hair above it in a single controlled pass. There are no acids involved, no thermal energy, and no recovery time required. The freshly exposed surface is smoother, more luminous, and significantly more receptive to serums and treatment products. Gainesville patients pairing dermaplaning with a hydra facial or custom facial amplify the result of those treatments because the topical delivery barrier has been cleared.

The Treatment

Sterile Blade. Precise Technique. Instant Clarity.

Dermaplaning is one of the few professional exfoliation treatments safe during pregnancy, because it uses no acids, retinoids, or chemical actives. The only contraindications are active acne in the treatment area, open wounds, and active skin infections.

For Gainesville patients combining dermaplaning with a hydra facial in the same appointment, dermaplaning is performed first. The newly cleared surface allows the vortex-driven serum infusion to penetrate substantially deeper into the skin. Patients who book both treatments together consistently describe the combined effect as more dramatic and longer-lasting than either treatment performed independently.

What It Does

Benefits for Gainesville Patients

Immediate Surface Smoothing

The stratum corneum and vellus hair are removed in a single pass. Skin texture is noticeably smoother immediately after the session, before any products are applied.

Enhanced Product Absorption

The stratum corneum is the primary barrier to topical delivery. Removing it allows serums, moisturizers, and treatment products to reach the viable epidermis more directly. Skincare products work measurably better for 4-6 weeks post-treatment.

Brighter, More Even Tone

Dead skin cell accumulation creates a flat, dull appearance. Removing the surface layer reveals fresher skin beneath. Tone appears more even and luminous immediately.

Flawless Makeup Application

Foundation and concealer sit on a smooth, hair-free surface without catching on vellus hair or settling into texture. Makeup application is noticeably different the day of and for 2-4 weeks after the session.

Safe During Pregnancy

Dermaplaning uses no acids, retinoids, heat, or chemical actives. It is generally considered one of the safest professional exfoliation treatments during pregnancy. Inform your aesthetician at booking for confirmation.

Amplifies Other Treatments

Dermaplaning before a hydra facial amplifies the serum infusion. Before a custom facial it allows the mask and serum to penetrate more deeply. The combination produces results neither treatment achieves alone.

Why Gainesville Patients Choose Tactus Health

Licensed Practitioner. Sterile Technique. Clinical Oversight.

Dermaplaning technique is what determines the final result. Blade angle, applied pressure, stroke length, and treatment pattern are all under the practitioner’s control during the session. At Tactus Health, every dermaplaning session for Gainesville patients is performed by Cynthia, a Georgia licensed aesthetician trained in precise blade technique with our medical team’s clinical oversight at every visit.

Gainesville patients choose Tactus Health because consistency from one session to the next is what makes cumulative skin improvement actually compound over time. The same practitioner, the same clinical standard, and the same sterile single-use blade for every patient at every appointment. This is the standard of a medical aesthetics practice, not the rotating staff and variable technique of a franchise spa.

Your Session

What to Expect at Your Dermaplaning Session

01
Skin Assessment
Cynthia assesses your skin type, sensitivity, current condition, and any active concerns. Contraindications including active acne breakouts, open wounds, or recent resurfacing procedures are confirmed before proceeding.
02
Cleanse
The skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove all makeup, sunscreen, and surface oils. A completely clean, dry surface is required for the blade to move correctly and safely across the skin.
03
Dermaplaning (20-25 min)
Cynthia draws the sterile surgical blade across the skin in short, controlled feathering strokes at a 45-degree angle. The full face is covered systematically. Most patients feel minimal sensation.
04
Serum and SPF Finish
A calming serum and moisturizer are applied to the freshly treated surface. SPF is applied and strongly recommended for the first week post-treatment. Makeup can be applied immediately.

Dr. Ashar holds a Doctor of Nursing Practice and two national board certifications, one in family practice and one in psychiatric mental health.

She founded Tactus Health to close the gap she watched her own family fall through: symptoms that were real, labs that came back normal, and no one willing to connect the two.

She is responsible for the protocols our medical team follows, and for the training of the clinicians who deliver them. Holding both certifications is why those protocols treat hormones, mood, sleep and metabolism as one system rather than five separate appointments.

Common Questions

Dermaplaning FAQ for Gainesville Patients

What skin concerns does dermaplaning help with?

Dermaplaning addresses dullness from dead cell accumulation, rough or uneven texture, fine vellus hair that traps debris, reduced skincare product absorption, and skin appearance before events or photography.

What should I avoid before and after dermaplaning?

Before: avoid retinoids and acid-based products for 48 hours, avoid direct sun exposure. After: apply SPF immediately and daily for one week, avoid active exfoliation for 5-7 days. Full aftercare instructions provided at your session.

Can men get dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is performed on areas of vellus (fine) hair, not terminal hair. For most men this means the forehead, temples, cheeks, and nose, but not the beard zone. Your aesthetician will identify appropriate treatment areas at your session.

Does dermaplaning hurt?

No. The sterile surgical blade is feathered across the skin at a low angle with light pressure. Most patients feel nothing more than a mild scraping sensation. There is no numbing required.

Treatment Information: Dermaplaning is a non-invasive physical exfoliation treatment using a sterile surgical blade to remove the stratum corneum and vellus hair. Contraindications include active acne breakouts or pustules in the treatment area, open wounds, active rosacea flare, skin infections, and recent laser resurfacing or chemical peels (allow 2-4 weeks). Increased UV sensitivity following treatment requires daily SPF application for a minimum of one week. Avoid retinoids and aggressive actives for 5-7 days post-treatment. Not recommended for patients on isotretinoin (Accutane) or blood thinners. All dermaplaning at Tactus Health is performed by Georgia licensed aestheticians under our medical team’s clinical oversight. Individual results vary.
