Dermaplaning in Houston & Cypress

This quick, no-downtime exfoliating treatment gently removes dead skin cells and peach fuzz, revealing smoother, brighter skin almost instantly.

What Is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a gentle, manual exfoliation technique that uses a sterile surgical blade to remove dead skin and fine vellus hairs (aka peach fuzz) from the surface of your face. It’s especially helpful if your skin is feeling rough, your pores are congested, or your makeup isn’t sitting quite right. In just one session, we can sweep away weeks of buildup and reveal a softer, more even complexion underneath. At Basu Aesthetics + Plastic Surgery, we perform dermaplaning with expert precision, using a sterile blade on freshly cleansed skin to slough away buildup and help your skincare products absorb better. It’s a simple but powerful way to hit refresh on your skin.

What Are the Benefits of Dermaplaning?

When we perform dermaplaning at our Houston and Cypress medspas, you can expect your skin to look instantly refreshed. Dermaplaning smooths out rough texture, removes fine facial hairs, and helps unclog pores—all without any heat, chemicals, or lasers. It’s safe for most skin types, doesn’t hurt, and won’t cause your peach fuzz to grow back darker or coarser (promise). We love it on its own or paired with treatments like HydraFacial or chemical peels to take your results even further.

Am I a Good Candidate for Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is safe for most people and works beautifully for nearly all skin types. If you’re dealing with acne, inflammation, or active breakouts, we may recommend holding off until your skin calms down, or we’ll explore alternative treatments that better suit your skin’s current needs. We’ll talk through everything during your consultation and come up with a plan that makes sense for you.

What to Expect During Your Treatment

Don’t let the word “blade” scare you—dermaplaning is surprisingly gentle. After cleansing your face, your provider will lightly glide a sterile blade across the surface of your skin at a precise angle, gently removing buildup, peach fuzz, and dead cells. The process usually takes about 30 minutes, and most people say it feels more like a relaxing scratch than anything sharp. Once done, we’ll apply a hydrating, medical-grade moisturizer to soothe and protect your skin.

Aftercare and Results

You’ll walk out with instantly smoother skin and a fresh glow—no downtime required. We only ask that you be extra careful with sun exposure and apply SPF daily since your skin will be more sensitive to UV rays. Aside from that, you’re free to go about your day. You’ll continue to enjoy the results for days to weeks, and if you love how it looks (most people do), we can talk about adding it to your regular routine.
