Dermaplaning is a skin treatment that uses a specialized blade, similar to a surgical scalpel,  to remove dead skin and hairs. People may also refer to it as microplaning or blading. This procedure aims to give facial skin a smooth, youthful, and radiant appearance.
 
The continuous exposure of the top layer of skin to UV rays, environmental toxins, and irritants means that it may begin to appear dull. Dermaplaning removes the top layer of skin to reveal newer skin cells that may make a person’s skin appear smoother and glowing.
