Dermaplaning
Treatments in Charleston, SC

A professional dermaplaning treatment offers a simple, non-invasive way to restore a fresher appearance. By gently exfoliating the outermost layer of skin and removing fine facial hair, dermaplaning reveals a softer, brighter complexion with little to no downtime.
At Glow Med Spa, our physician-led team provides personalized dermaplaning in Charleston, SC, helping patients improve skin texture, enhance product absorption, and achieve naturally refreshed, healthy-looking skin.
Precision Dermaplaning Treatment
Using a sterile surgical blade, your provider carefully removes dull surface cells and fine vellus hair (“peach fuzz”) with controlled, gentle strokes, revealing smoother, brighter skin beneath. The procedure is comfortable, relaxing, and typically takes less than an hour.
