You know that feeling when your foundation sits in patches, your skin looks dull no matter what you put on, and no amount of scrubbing really fixes it? Nine out of ten times, the problem is dead skin buildup and peach fuzz sitting on the surface — and no skincare product in the world gets rid of that the way dermaplaning does.
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive skin treatment where a trained specialist uses a sterile surgical blade to gently remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells and fine facial hair — in one controlled, painless session. At Facematic Aesthetics in Borivali, we perform dermaplaning as a standalone treatment or combined with other skin therapies for a deeper result.
Results? Instantly smoother skin, better product absorption, and that clean glass-skin finish people keep asking filters for.
What Actually Happens During Dermaplaning?
Simple process. Big results.
Your skin is cleansed and prepped. Then using a sterile 10-gauge scalpel held at a 45-degree angle, our specialist gently glides the blade across the surface of your skin in short, feathering strokes.
What comes off — a layer of dead skin cells and vellus hair (peach fuzz). What’s left — fresh, smooth skin that hasn’t seen daylight in weeks.
The session takes about 30–45 minutes. No cuts, no pain, no downtime. It feels like a light scratching sensation at most — most clients find it oddly satisfying.
Will the Hair Grow Back Thicker? Let’s Clear This Up.
This is the most common question we get — and the answer is no.
Vellus hair (peach fuzz) is structurally different from terminal hair. Dermaplaning removes it at the surface level only — it does not touch the follicle. The hair grows back at the same thickness, same color, same rate as before. Always has, always will.
This myth has been around forever and it keeps people away from one of the simplest, most effective skin treatments available. Don’t let it stop you.
Why Get Dermaplaning at Facematic Aesthetics, Borivali?
Because precision matters. Dermaplaning done wrong — by an untrained hand or a non-sterile blade — can cause micro-cuts, irritation, or uneven texture. At Facematic Aesthetics in Borivali, every session is performed by trained aesthetic specialists using medically sterile, single-use blades only.
We also customize the session based on your skin:
- Dry or flaky skin? — We pair dermaplaning with a hydrating serum infusion right after for instant plumpness
- Dull skin with pigmentation? — We follow up with a brightening peel or Vitamin C treatment for a layered glow effect
- Prepping for a big event? — Standalone dermaplaning gives your skin a polished, filter-free finish within 24 hours
Living in Borivali means your skin is dealing with daily pollution, dust, and heat. That buildup sits on the surface and dulls everything. Dermaplaning physically removes it in one session — no waiting, no gradual results.

Who Should Get Dermaplaning?
Almost anyone with healthy skin. It works particularly well if you have:
- Dull, rough, or uneven skin texture
- Peach fuzz that makes makeup look cakey or textured
- Dry patches that serums can’t seem to penetrate
- Mild acne scarring or superficial marks
- Skin that just looks tired and needs a reset
Not suitable for: active acne breakouts, rosacea flare-ups, very sensitive skin with open lesions, or sunburned skin. If you’re unsure, we’ll assess your skin before the session — no guessing.
Best time to book: 3–5 days before a wedding, event, shoot, or any occasion where you want your skin to look its absolute best.

FAQs — Dermaplaning in Borivali
Q: What is dermaplaning and how is it different from a regular facial?
A: Dermaplaning is a clinical exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile surgical blade to remove dead skin cells and peach fuzz from the skin’s surface. Unlike regular facials that rely on enzymes or scrubs, dermaplaning provides a deeper, more precise physical exfoliation with immediate visible results in a single 30–45 minute session.
Q: Does dermaplaning hurt?
A: No. Dermaplaning is completely painless. Most clients describe a light scratching or feathering sensation — nothing more. There is no redness, swelling, or discomfort during or after the session. You can return to normal activity immediately.
Q: Will peach fuzz grow back thicker after dermaplaning?
A: No — this is a common myth. Dermaplaning removes vellus hair (peach fuzz) at the surface only, without touching the hair follicle. The hair grows back at the same texture and thickness as before. It does not become coarser or darker after treatment.
Q: How often should I get dermaplaning in Borivali?
A: Most skin specialists recommend dermaplaning every 3–4 weeks, which aligns with the skin’s natural cell turnover cycle. Monthly sessions at Facematic Aesthetics keep skin consistently smooth, clear, and glowing — especially in Borivali’s pollution-heavy environment.
Q: Can dermaplaning be combined with other treatments?
A: Yes. Dermaplaning pairs exceptionally well with chemical peels, HydraFacial, or brightening serums — because the fresh skin underneath absorbs active ingredients up to 70% more effectively post-treatment. At Facematic Aesthetics, we often combine it with a glow peel or Vitamin C infusion for enhanced results.
Q: Is dermaplaning safe for Indian skin tones?
A: Yes. Dermaplaning is safe for all skin tones including Indian skin, which is often prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation. Since it is a physical, non-chemical exfoliation, there is no risk of hyperpigmentation reactions — making it one of the most inclusive skin treatments available in Borivali.
