Why I Love & Recommend Dermaplaning + Dermalogica
Sacred Skin Rituals for Radiant, Healthy Glow
What Is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a gentle, non-invasive exfoliation treatment that removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (often called “peach fuzz”) from the skin's surface using a sterile surgical blade.
It immediately:
Smooths texture
Brightens dull skin
Softens the appearance of fine lines
Allows skincare products to penetrate more deeply
Creates flawless makeup application
But for me, it’s more than a surface treatment.
Dermaplaning is about revealing what’s already there.
It’s about removing what no longer serves.
It’s about letting your natural radiance rise to the surface.
And when paired with the right skincare? That’s where the magic deepens.
Why I Pair Dermaplaning with Dermalogica
After dermaplaning, your skin is beautifully receptive. It’s open. It’s ready.
This is why I exclusively use Dermalogica in my studio.
Here’s why I trust it:
1. Professional-Grade + Skin Health Focused
Dermalogica is formulated by skin therapists, not trend-driven marketing teams. The ingredients are active, effective, and focused on long-term skin health, not quick fixes.
2. Clean, Results-Driven Formulations
No artificial fragrances. No unnecessary fillers. Just targeted, high-performance ingredients that support the skin barrier (which is especially important post-dermaplaning).
3. Customizable for Every Season of Life
Whether you’re:
Navigating hormonal shifts
Supporting aging skin
Healing breakouts
Restoring barrier function
Or simply wanting glow
Dermalogica allows me to fully customize your treatment.
Why This Combination Works So Beautifully
Dermaplaning removes the barrier of dead skin cells.
Dermalogica infuses the skin with nourishment, hydration, and active ingredients.
Together, they:
Enhance product absorption
Improve skin tone and clarity
Support collagen health
Create a luminous, lit-from-within glow
It’s not harsh.
It’s not aggressive.
It’s intentional.
This is not a “quick beauty fix.”
It’s a sacred skin ritual.
Is Dermaplaning Safe?
Yes, when performed by a licensed professional.
In my South Portland studio, dermaplaning is done with precision, care, and deep respect for your skin’s integrity. I assess your skin first to ensure you’re a good candidate and adjust your treatment if needed.
Dermaplaning is ideal for most skin types, but we may modify or avoid it if you have:
Active acne
Certain inflammatory conditions
Extremely sensitized skin
Your skin is unique. Your treatment should be too.
What It Feels Like
Clients often say:
“My skin has never felt this soft.”
“My makeup goes on like silk.”
“I didn’t realize how dull my skin was until now.”
But what I love most?
The moment someone looks in the mirror afterward.
It’s not just glow.
It’s recognition, a remembering of who they truly are.
My Philosophy on Skin
I am not here to “fix” you or change you.
I am here to:
Support it
Strengthen it
Help you understand it
Guide you back to caring for it
Dermaplaning + Dermalogica is one of my favorite ways to do that.
Because when we gently remove what’s built up and nourish what remains…
Your skin remembers how to thrive.
