DERMAPLANING IN CORNELIUS, NC
DERMAPLANING TREATMENT
If your skin feels dull, uneven, or your makeup just won’t sit right, you’re not alone. Many clients from Lake Norman, Cornelius, and nearby areas come to Meraki Aesthetics & Co. looking for a simple way to restore that smooth, radiant finish. Dermaplaning is a gentle, non-invasive exfoliating treatment that removes dead skin cells and peach fuzz using a sterile surgical scalpel—instantly leaving your skin softer, brighter, and more refined.
When dead skin and buildup are left untreated, it can clog pores, reduce product absorption, and leave your complexion looking tired or textured. Over time, this can impact not only your skin’s health but also how confident you feel without makeup. Our team tailors each dermaplaning session to your skin type and goals, helping you maintain a consistent glow with minimal effort and zero downtime. Radiance starts here—book your dermaplaning session at Meraki Aesthetics & Co. today and reveal your glow.

WHAT IS DERMAPLANING?
Dermaplaning is a simple and safe treatment for removing the top layer of dead skin and ridding of fine vellus hairs (peach fuzz). Dermaplaning uses a sterile surgical scalpel specially designed for the face to gently remove the top layer of dead skin. Dermaplaning is gentle, yet deeply exfoliating. With dermaplaning, products are able to penetrate the skin deeper, making them more effective.
WHAT DO YOU USE TO DERMAPLANE?
We use a medical-grade, single use, sterile scalpel with curved edges specifically designed for dermaplaning.
DOES HAIR GROW BACK DARKER?
Not at all! There are different types of hair that grow on the body; vellus hair and terminal hair. Vellus hair is soft, light, fine hair that covers the face. Terminal hair is darker, coarse hair that covers the legs and underarms. The only way hair growth can be affected is through mediational or hormonal changes. Dermaplaning will not affect the way the hair grows back.
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE?
Dermaplaning is appropriate for almost any skin type, even candidates with extremely sensitive skin. Patients with active acne cannot be treated, as well as anyone taking Accutane. Any areas with dark, thick facial hair will be avoided during your treatment.
