Dermaplaning — gentle exfoliation for instantly smoother, brighter, makeup-ready skin.
Want smoother skin and a flawless glow with no downtime?
Dermaplaning is a very simple method of exfoliation that removes dead skin cells and the fine baby hairs on your face by essentially shaving the skin with a sharp blade. This treatment can be a great way to reveal a fresh, youthful complexion and also great for a smooth makeup application.
The medical aestheticians at ZENA Medical will gently feather a special scalpel across your skin to get rid of any dead skin cells, oil, and dirt. It will be similar to the process of shaving your legs but as relaxing as a facial.
At the end of the treatment, we’ll apply a moisturizing sunscreen and you’ll enjoy beautiful, immediate results. You don’t have to worry about your facial hair growing back thicker or darker. Removing the “peach fuzz” on your face will also open the barrier to get deeper penetration for topical ingredients that nourish your skin.
You may be a good candidate for dermaplaning:
Since dermaplaning can be completed in only 30 minutes, you can receive it even on your lunch break.

There is no downtime associated with dermaplaning so you can resume your daily activities right away.
Dermaplaning is a gentle exfoliating treatment that uses a sterile surgical blade to remove dead surface skin and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz). The result is immediately smoother, brighter skin and a flawless canvas for makeup.
Beyond an instant glow, dermaplaning helps skincare products absorb better and can soften the look of fine lines and dull texture. It involves no chemicals and no downtime, which makes it great for sensitive skin and pre-event prep. Contrary to a common myth, it does not make hair grow back thicker.
Dermaplaning is typically repeated about every four weeks and pairs well with facials and peels. At ZENA Medical in Newport Beach, it’s performed under the direction of board-certified dermatologist Dr. Zena Gabriel. Book your dermaplaning session today.
