Dermaplaning Technician

Class B — No Prerequisite

Master the art of dermaplaning.

The Dermaplaning course teaches students how to effectively use surgical blades to gently scrape away the top layer of problem skin, removing dead skin cells and vellus hair (peach fuzz) to reveal smoother, brighter skin. Students learn facial anatomy, assessment, treatment indications, safety considerations, and contraindications — then put theory into practice on live models. Dermaplaning is a highly requested treatment that pairs well with other skin care services.
