Dermaplaning in Portsmouth, NH
Achieve Smooth, Radiant Skin with Dermaplaning
At LIIV Medical in Portsmouth, NH, we aim to help everyone feel comfortable in their skin. One of our most loved treatments, dermaplaning, is a gentle, non-invasive exfoliating procedure that reveals a brighter, smoother complexion in just one session.
Dermaplaning is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure for the skin that uses a special instrument to shave away the skin’s uppermost layers. Revealing newer, smoother, younger-looking skin reduces skin imperfections and soft, fine hairs (“peach fuzz”).
Discover dermaplaning, its benefits, what to expect during and after your session, and why LIIV Medical is the best place for smooth, glowing skin.
What Are the Benefits of Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning offers both immediate and long-term benefits for your skin:
- Exfoliates Dead Skin Cells: Gently remove dead skin cells that cover the surface to reveal a fresh, luminous surface.
- Removes Peach Fuzz: Eliminates soft facial hair that can trap oil and dirt, helping your skin stay cleaner.
- Enhances Product Absorption: Skincare products penetrate deeper and work more effectively.
- Creates a Smooth Canvas: Ideal before makeup application for a flawless finish.
- No Downtime: Resume your day immediately after treatment with no irritation or redness.
What Happens During a Dermaplaning Appointment?
Your dermaplaning treatment at LIIV Medical is relaxing, quick, and effective. Here’s what to expect:
- Consultation: A skincare professional evaluates your skin and explains the treatment process.
- Cleansing: Cleansing the face thoroughly removes oils, dirt, and makeup.
- Dermaplaning Procedure: A sterile, surgical-grade scalpel gently removes dead skin cells and fine hairs.
- Post-Treatment Care: A soothing serum or hydrating mask is applied to soothe and hydrate the skin.
You’ll leave with skin that feels silky-smooth and looks instantly brighter.
Who Is Dermaplaning For?
A dermaplaning treatment is an excellent choice for most skin types, especially if you’re looking for a non-invasive, effective method of exfoliation.
You may be a good candidate if:
- You want smoother, brighter skin

Your skincare professional will help determine if dermaplaning is the right fit for your skin type and goals.
