WHAT IS DERMAPLANING?
An increasingly popular treatment for brides, entertainment personalities, or anyone in front of the camera, dermaplaning is a painless method of exfoliation that uses a 10-gauge scalpel to gently scrape away or exfoliate the outermost layer of skin, eliminating the dull dead skin cells, pigmentation, and vellus hair to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion.

Board-certified Dermatologist and expert skin care revolutionary Dr. Sagar Gujjar, customizes all of his patient’s skincare treatments to best serve their needs. The dermaplane procedure is one of many skincare services offered by Dr. Sagar Gujjar.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF DERMAPLANING?
Conducted by Dr. Sagar Gujjar of Pali Hill and our highly skilled aestheticians, nurses, and physician assistants, dermaplaning treatments allow for greater penetration of skincare products and deeper penetration of lasers and radiofrequency energy devices.
Dermaplaning regularly and prior to energy-based procedures or peels can yield rapid stimulation of collagen production through cell turnover, thus improving fine lines and wrinkles, acne and acne scarring, pigmentation, and textural issues.
To achieve optimal skin exfoliation and aesthetic improvement, dermaplaning is combined with microneedling, enzyme peels or light chemical peels. Dermaplaning also aids in creating a flawless canvas for makeup to be applied evenly and flawlessly; for this reason, some of our patients schedule their dermaplaning procedures on a bi-monthly or even weekly basis.
