Dermaplaning Montreal
Dermaplaning is a gentle exfoliation treatment offered at our Dermapure clinics in Montreal that uses a sterile, precise blade to remove dead surface cells and fine vellus hair (often called “peach fuzz”). It is performed mainly on the face, and the neck can be treated in the same session.
Dermaplaning is most often chosen by patients who would like instantly smoother, brighter-looking skin, a more even surface for makeup, and better absorption of their skincare. It is comfortable, suited to most skin types including sensitive skin, and involves no downtime. It is often added before another facial or treatment to help prepare the skin.
Because every patient’s skin is different, dermaplaning at our Dermapure clinics in Montreal begins with a skin assessment to confirm it is suited to your skin and tailor the session to your needs. Book your appointment with our team in Montreal.

Follow-Up & Maintenance
While the skin is generally brighter immediately after a dermaplaning session, the effects are optimal after a series of treatments at 4-to-6-week intervals. The exfoliation achieved with dermaplaning allows products to better penetrate the skin, which increases their effectiveness making it an ideal option to prepare the skin to receive another treatment. Dermaplaning can be combined with many of the treatments available at Dermapure and is recommended, for example, before a SkinCeuticals Facial or photorejuvenation. Ask your consultant about the ideal combination for your skin.
Contraindications
Patients with active acne outbreaks, extremely oily skin or solar erythema should not receive this treatment.
