If your skin has been feeling dull, textured, or just “meh” lately, there’s a quick, non-invasive treatment that delivers instant radiance with zero downtime: the Dermaplane Facial. At Lux Aesthetics, dermaplaning is one of our most-loved services—because it leaves your skin silky smooth, naturally glowing, and makeup-ready in under an hour.
Whether you’re prepping for a big event or just want a fresh start for your skin, this treatment offers a dramatic boost in glow, texture, and product absorption—all without harsh chemicals or downtime.
In this blog, we’ll explore:
- What a dermaplane facial is and how it works
- Why it’s so popular (spoiler: it’s more than just peach fuzz removal)
- Who it’s best for
- How we customize it at Lux Aesthetics
- And why clients across Indianapolis and Carmel swear by this glow-boosting staple
What Is a Dermaplane Facial?
A dermaplane facial uses a professional-grade surgical blade to gently scrape away:
- Dead skin cells from the top layer of the epidermis
- Fine vellus hair (peach fuzz)
- Dullness and texture from environmental buildup
This reveals smoother, brighter skin underneath—and gives you that fresh, ultra-soft, “glass skin” feel that clients love.
It’s painless, quick, and incredibly effective when performed by a licensed esthetician. At Lux Aesthetics, we pair dermaplaning with a full facial experience for maximum results and relaxation.
What Are the Benefits of Dermaplane Facials?
✨ Instant glow and smooth texture
✨ Better makeup application (flawless foundation!)
✨ Deeper product penetration—your serums work better
✨ Improved tone and brightness
✨ Reduction in the appearance of fine lines over time
✨ Zero downtime and no discomfort
✨ Safe for most skin types, including pregnancy
This is why brides, professionals, and busy clients all keep this in their regular rotation—it delivers real results, quickly.
What Happens During a Dermaplane Facial at Lux Aesthetics?
At Lux, we go beyond just a blade—we turn this into a complete, luxurious facial experience. Here’s what to expect:
1. Personalized Skin Consultation
We assess your skin type, sensitivities, and goals to ensure dermaplaning is the best option for you. If you’re experiencing active acne or certain skin conditions, we’ll suggest the best treatment to avoid irritation.
2. Thorough Double Cleanse
We prep your skin with professional-grade cleansers to remove oil, debris, and impurities—creating the perfect clean canvas.
3. Precision Dermaplaning
Using a sterile, surgical-grade blade, we gently and safely glide over the surface of your skin to remove:
- Peach fuzz
- Built-up dead cells
- Dull surface texture
This step reveals brighter, smoother skin instantly.
4. Soothing Post-Treatment Mask
We apply a calming, hydrating mask to nourish and rebalance your skin—this step is especially important after exfoliation.
5. Serum Infusion + Moisture Lock
With your fresh new skin exposed, your products absorb beautifully. We finish with customized serums, a barrier-repair moisturizer, and SPF if you’re heading outside.
Will My Hair Grow Back Thicker or Darker?
Absolutely not. This is one of the biggest myths about dermaplaning.
Dermaplaning removes vellus hair, not terminal hair. Vellus hair:
- Is soft, fine, and lightly pigmented
- Will grow back at the same rate, thickness, and color as before
- Does not change in texture or volume after dermaplaning
Your skin might feel different as hair grows back blunt, but it won’t become darker or coarser.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Dermaplane Facials?
Dermaplaning is safe and effective for most skin types, including:
✔️ Dry or dehydrated skin
✔️ Dull or uneven tone
✔️ Texture or rough patches
✔️ Acne-scarred or aging skin
✔️ Sensitive skin (if not actively inflamed)
✔️ Pregnant or nursing clients (since it’s chemical-free!)
It’s ideal for those who want results without downtime or harsh exfoliants.
How Often Should I Book a Dermaplane Facial?
For best results, we recommend:
- Every 4–6 weeks for general maintenance
- Every 3–4 weeks if you’re targeting texture, dullness, or pigmentation
- 1 week before any major event, wedding, photoshoot, or vacation
You’ll love how your skin looks AND feels after just one session—but long-term consistency delivers even better tone, glow, and hydration.
Can I Combine Dermaplaning with Other Treatments?
Yes! At Lux Aesthetics, we often combine dermaplaning with:
✨ Hydration facials for dry or mature skin
✨ LED light therapy for acne-prone or aging skin
✨ Enzyme masks or chemical peels for deeper resurfacing
✨ Nano-infusion facials for serum delivery post-dermaplaning
We’ll always walk you through the best options based on your skin and goals.
