What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile surgical blade to scrape away dead skin cells and vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the face. The result is smoother texture, brighter-looking skin, and better product absorption.
The treatment takes 30 to 45 minutes and is completely painless — most patients find it relaxing. Results are immediate, with smoother, more luminous skin that lasts 3 to 4 weeks before new hair grows back and dead cells accumulate.
Dermaplaning is often paired with a chemical peel, facial, or serum infusion for stronger results. Expect to pay more for combination services.
How much does Dermaplaning cost in Chicago?
A single dermaplaning session in Chicago typically costs $90 to $240. Combination services (dermaplaning + peel or facial) cost more.

What to ask your provider
- Who is performing the treatment — a licensed esthetician or medical professional?
- What blade and sanitation protocol do you use?
- Do you offer combination services (peel, facial, serum infusion)? What is the price difference?
- Is dermaplaning safe for my skin type and any current breakouts?
- What is aftercare? How long should I avoid retinoids, actives, or sun?
- Do you offer package or membership pricing for monthly treatments?
Frequently asked questions
How much does dermaplaning cost in Chicago?
A single dermaplaning session in Chicago typically costs $75 to $200. Combination services (dermaplaning plus a peel or HydraFacial) run $150 to $450. Some practices offer monthly membership pricing.
Does dermaplaning make hair grow back thicker?
No. Dermaplaning removes vellus hair (fine peach fuzz), not terminal hair. Hair grows back at the same diameter and texture. The myth that shaving makes hair thicker is widespread but medically inaccurate for facial vellus hair.
How long do dermaplaning results last?
Results last 3 to 4 weeks before new vellus hair grows back and dead skin cells accumulate. Most patients book monthly treatments for consistent results.
Is dermaplaning safe for acne-prone skin?
Dermaplaning should be avoided during active acne breakouts because the blade can spread bacteria and irritate inflamed skin. Patients with cystic acne or very sensitive skin may want to consider microdermabrasion or a gentle chemical peel instead.
Does dermaplaning hurt?
No. Dermaplaning is completely painless — most patients describe it as relaxing. You feel light scraping but no discomfort. There is no downtime afterward.
