Experience the instant gratification of incredibly smooth, luminous skin with professional dermaplaning at Balance. Available at our convenient Columbia, SC, locations in Shandon, Irmo, and at our Metabolic Health center, this treatment is the secret to a flawless complexion. Our expert estheticians use a specialized surgical-grade blade to gently and precisely exfoliate the top layer of dead skin cells and remove fine vellus hair—commonly known as “peach fuzz.” The result is an unparalleled smoothness and a radiant glow that enhances your natural beauty and creates the perfect canvas for skincare and makeup.
For those seeking immediate results with zero downtime, dermaplaning is an exceptional choice. Unlike other exfoliation methods, it offers the unique dual benefit of skin resurfacing and hair removal in one simple, painless procedure. This physical exfoliation triggers the cell regeneration process, helping to improve the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation over time. It’s a favorite among makeup artists and beauty enthusiasts for its ability to create a perfectly smooth surface, allowing foundation to glide on flawlessly.
At Balance, your safety and comfort are our top priorities. Our highly trained estheticians perform this delicate procedure with the utmost precision and care in a sterile, professional environment. We believe that true wellness is reflected in how you feel, and the confidence that comes from having smooth, glowing skin is a powerful part of that equation. Let us help you unveil your skin’s smoothest, most radiant potential and harmonize your outer beauty with your inner vitality.
Dermaplaning delivers four key benefits that provide instant and visible improvements, making it one of our most popular treatments for achieving a quick and stunning skin refresh.
The primary benefit of dermaplaning is the immediate improvement in skin texture and tone. By gently sloughing away the outermost layer of dull, dead skin cells, the treatment instantly reveals the fresher, healthier, and more radiant skin hiding just beneath the surface. Your skin will feel incredibly soft and smooth to the touch right after your session.
Dermaplaning provides the added advantage of removing the fine, translucent vellus hair that can trap excess oil and dirt, leading to breakouts, and can make the skin’s surface appear dull. Removing this “peach fuzz” leaves your skin looking and feeling exceptionally clean and smooth, with a beautifully refined finish.
By creating a perfectly smooth, hair-free canvas, dermaplaning allows for a flawless makeup application. Foundation and powders will no longer get caught on fine hairs or uneven texture. Instead, your makeup will glide on effortlessly and sit beautifully on the skin, giving you a professional, airbrushed look every time.
With the barrier of dead skin cells and vellus hair removed, your expensive serums and moisturizers can penetrate the skin much more effectively. This enhances the efficacy of your at-home skincare routine, allowing the active ingredients to work more deeply and deliver better, faster results. It’s the perfect way to maximize your skincare investment.
Your dermaplaning journey at Balance is designed to be a quick, easy, and incredibly rewarding experience, delivering instant results in a relaxing, professional setting.
Your session begins with a consultation and skin assessment to ensure dermaplaning is the right choice for you. Your esthetician will then thoroughly cleanse and dry your skin to prepare it for the treatment, ensuring a clean surface for the procedure.
Relax as your esthetician holds your skin taut and uses gentle, feathering strokes with the sterile, surgical-grade blade at a 45-degree angle. The entire process is meticulous and precise, typically taking about 20-30 minutes to treat the full face.
Immediately after the exfoliation, we will apply a hydrating serum and a soothing mask to nourish your newly revealed skin. The treatment is completed with the application of a moisturizer and, most importantly, a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect your fresh, sensitive complexion.
You will leave your appointment with instantly smoother, brighter skin. We’ll provide you with simple post-care instructions, which mainly involve being gentle with your skin and diligent with sun protection. You can immediately resume all normal activities and enjoy your stunningly smooth results.
