Dermaplaning at Elysium Chicago Aesthetics + Longevity is a non-invasive, exfoliating treatment that gently removes dead skin cells and fine facial hair (“peach fuzz”) using a sterile surgical blade. This simple, no-downtime procedure leaves your skin instantly smoother, brighter, and better able to absorb skincare products.
Whether you’re looking for a radiant complexion, smoother makeup application, or a fresh skin reset, dermaplaning is an excellent stand-alone or complementary service.
Overview
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique that uses a sterile, surgical-grade blade to gently stroke the skin at an angle. This removes the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, improving texture, tone, and the effectiveness of skincare. Unlike microdermabrasion, dermaplaning is crystal-free and involves no suction, making it ideal for sensitive or reactive skin types.
It can be performed as a standalone glow-boosting treatment or paired with a HydraFacial or chemical peel for enhanced results.
