First, some basics, because you've gotta understand the process before you master it: Dermaplaning is a form of physical exfoliation that removes your outermost layer of dead skin cells as well as any peach fuzz with a surgical blade, explains licensed aesthetician Joie Tavernise.

Just how sharp that blade is depends on where you're getting it done. Actual aestheticians generally use much sharper ones, leading to a deeper exfoliation, but you can expect to pay much more for a professional treatment (dermaplaning costs about $100 per session, with results lasting around two to four weeks). So it's a good thing the newest at-home tools work almost as well.
