Dermaplaning is a professional facial treatment that uses a sterile blade to remove dead skin cells and fine peach fuzz. Skin looks brighter and smoother right away, absorbs skincare better and makes makeup go on flawlessly, with no downtime, and hair does not grow back thicker or darker. At Crystal Ngozi Beauty & Esthetics in Tucker, GA, we treat all skin types and specialize in Black and brown skin, pairing dermaplaning with calming, pigment-safe care.
Clear the buildup, and everything works better
Dead skin and peach fuzz sit on the surface of your face, dulling your glow, trapping oil and keeping your serums from doing their job. Dermaplaning gently lifts it all away in one visit.
For melanin-rich skin, technique matters. A trained hand, a sterile blade and calming aftercare give you the glow without the nicks or irritation that can leave dark marks behind.

We will tell you if dermaplaning is right for your skin
Dermaplaning is for fine peach fuzz. If you have coarse or dark facial hair from hormones or PCOS, cutting it can cause stubble and ingrown hairs, so we will recommend laser hair removal instead. It is also not recommended over active inflamed breakouts, within six months of Accutane, or with a sunburn, open wounds or cold sores.
Skin of color is our specialty, not a side note
Our licensed esthetics team builds every protocol around melanin-rich skin: how it heals, how it holds pigment and how to get results without setbacks.
Dermaplaning FAQ
What is dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning uses a sterile, professional blade to gently remove dead skin cells and fine peach fuzz from the face. Skin instantly looks brighter, feels smoother and absorbs your skincare better, and makeup goes on flawlessly.
Does hair grow back thicker or darker after dermaplaning?
No. Dermaplaning removes fine peach fuzz, and it does not change how that hair grows back. It will not come back thicker, darker or coarser.
Is dermaplaning safe for Black and brown skin?
Yes, when it is done by a trained professional. We use careful technique and follow with calming, pigment-safe care, so melanin-rich skin gets the glow without irritation or dark spots.
Will dermaplaning cause breakouts or ingrown hairs?
Dermaplaning removes fine peach fuzz and dead skin, which usually helps skin look clearer. If you have coarse, dark facial hair from hormones or PCOS, dermaplaning is not the best choice because cutting thicker hair can lead to stubble and ingrown hairs, and laser hair removal is the better long-term option.
How often should I get dermaplaning?
Most clients rebook every three to four weeks, which matches the skin's natural renewal cycle. Your consultation gives you an exact plan.
Is there any downtime?
No. Your skin looks brighter and feels smoother right away, and you can go right back to your day. Wear sunscreen daily, since fresh skin is more sensitive to the sun.
Can I get dermaplaning if I have acne?
Not over active, inflamed breakouts. We calm active acne first, often with a corrective facial or peel, then add dermaplaning once your skin is ready.
Why not just dermaplane at home?
Professional dermaplaning uses a sterile blade, the right angle and a trained hand, and it is paired with a facial that treats your skin. At-home tools make it easier to nick the skin or irritate it, which can leave melanin-rich skin with dark marks.
Can I combine dermaplaning with a peel?
Yes. Our Dermaplane + Peel Facial removes dead skin first so the peel works more evenly, for brighter, smoother, more even skin.
Who should not get dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is not recommended over active inflamed acne, if you have used Accutane in the last six months, or if you have a sunburn, open wounds or active cold sores.
Can I get dermaplaning while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Yes. Plain dermaplaning is a pregnancy and breastfeeding friendly way to glow. If you want to add a peel, we use our pregnancy and breastfeeding friendly lactic peel, and we ask you to check with your OB-GYN before any treatment.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. We offer flexible payment plans through Cherry and Klarna, plus single facials, series and combination plans, so there is an option for every budget.
Do I need a consultation first?
Yes. New clients start with a skin consultation and custom facial so we can build the right plan. Dermaplaning is then available to add to your care.
