Dermaplaning in Miami—Skin Dealer Clinic

Let’s break it down simply: dermaplaning is an exfoliating skin treatment where a skilled professional uses a surgical scalpel at a 45-degree angle to gently scrape away dead skin cells, peach fuzz, and the top layer of your skin. It’s kind of like shaving, but more precise and effective—done by a trained aesthetician or board-certified dermatologist in a medical center setting.

This treatment helps you achieve a smoother complexion and cleaner surface, which allows skincare products and serums to penetrate more deeply. It also makes makeup application a breeze since there are no hairs or rough patches getting in the way.

Unlike traditional microdermabrasion, which uses suction and crystals, dermaplaning is manual and more targeted. It’s especially good for people with sensitive skin or anyone who wants a quick refresh without harsh exfoliants or long recovery times.

During your dermaplaning session at Skin Dealer Clinic, we’ll first cleanse your face to remove oils and debris. Then, using a sterile scalpel, your provider gently glides the blade across your skin at a 45-degree angle to lift off dead cells, facial hair, and other debris.

This doesn’t just clean your skin—it actually helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, dark spots, and even acne scars over time. The entire session takes around 30 to 45 minutes, and you can return to your normal routine right after.

There’s no pain involved, and most people describe it as a relaxing experience. You’ll immediately notice a smoother texture, brighter look, and better skin feel.

The secret behind dermaplaning’s power is precision. At Skin Dealer Clinic, we use a sterile surgical scalpel held at a 45-degree angle to gently glide across the facial skin. This angle is critical—it allows for maximum removal of dead skin cells, peach fuzz, and surface debris without cutting or irritating the skin.

Think of it like using a finely tuned razor designed by a professional for the most delicate surface on your body—your face. This isn’t your drugstore razor. It’s a specialized tool handled by a trained professional who knows how to exfoliate without harming your skin type.

The blade never digs in or scrapes too hard. Instead, it skims lightly over the surface to remove dead skin and vellus hair while leaving your fresh skin cells intact. The result? Baby-smooth skin, every time.

Here’s the deal—dermaplaning is not shaving, even if it sounds similar. Regular razors only cut hair. They don’t exfoliate the top layers of your skin, and they definitely don’t offer the same level of precision or safety that a board-certified dermatologist or trained aesthetician can deliver.

Shaving also increases the risk of irritation, ingrown hairs, and missed patches, especially around delicate areas like the nose and jawline. Dermaplaning, on the other hand, is safe and controlled. Every stroke is deliberate and effective, designed to treat facial hair, skin buildup, and dullness in a single pass.

If you're serious about skincare and want better results from your serums, chemical peels, or daily routine, dermaplaning is the smarter option.

One of the main purposes of dermaplaning is deep exfoliation. Over time, your skin builds up a layer of dead cells that block pores, make you look dull, and interfere with your products. By manually removing this barrier, you give your face a chance to breathe and reset.

This isn’t just about looking good—it’s also about maintaining healthy skin. Your body naturally turns over skin cells, but sometimes it needs a little push. Dermaplaning helps speed up that process, improving complexion, texture, and tone without using abrasive tools or harsh chemicals.

And don’t worry—it doesn’t hurt. In fact, many clients describe it as relaxing. You’ll walk out feeling fresh, clean, and smooth as ever.

Though dermaplaning is safe for most skin types, a few side effects can happen—usually mild and temporary.

Having a big sale, on-site celebrity, or other event? Be sure to announce it so everybody knows and gets excited about it.

• Redness for a few hours
  
• Slight sensitivity
  
• A tight feeling in the skin
  
• Temporary dryness
  
• Rarely, small breakouts or bumps
  

These usually go away within a few days. Just stick with a calming skincare routine, moisturize well, and avoid the sun and exfoliants. 

Serious issues like infection, scarring, or cold sore flare-ups are very rare, especially if the procedure is done by trained professionals at a medical spa like Skin Dealer Clinic. That’s why we always review your medical history and check for any triggers before your session.

People with a history of cold sores should tell us beforehand so we can help prevent a breakout. And if you’re using retinoids, exfoliants, or acne meds, you may need to stop them temporarily before your appointment.

• Go to a trusted provider like Skin Dealer Clinic.
  
• Avoid active acne, peels, or sunburns before treatment.
  
• Follow your aftercare plan (no scrubs, no tanning, no harsh products).
  
• Always use sunscreen after your session—sunburn on freshly exfoliated skin is a big no-no.
  

With the right care, side effects are rare, and recovery is smooth.
