Course Description

Join us for an exceptional education in Dermaplaning, endorsed by the leaders and pioneers in the industry – DermaplanePro International.

Dermaplaning is an advanced form of an exfoliating treatment used to remove dead skin cells and vellus hair (also known as peach fuzz) from the surface of the skin. This effective, safe, and relaxing treatment has gained popularity among cosmetic and medical esthetics professionals worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can take this dermaplaning certification course?

This course is designed for licensed estheticians, skin care technicians, certain medical professionals, or current esthetics students.

Is online training as effective as in-person?

Yes. Online students access comprehensive videos, expert support, and theory content. 

For learners who prefer a hands-on experience, we also offer in-person training in major Canadian cities, including Winnipeg, Toronto, Calgary, Vancouver, Montréal, and Moncton. 

Scroll to the “Dates & Locations” section of our webpage for specific upcoming sessions.

What will I learn in this course?

You’ll gain knowledge and hands-on experience in:

  • Blade types, safety, and sterilization

  • Client consultations and contraindications

  • Skin anatomy and post-treatment care

  • Professional dermaplaning techniques using surgical-grade blades

  • How to safely and effectively remove dead skin cells and peach fuzz

  • Protocols for glowing results and client retention

What’s included in the course cost?

  • Access to DermaplanePro International’s Canada curriculum
  • One Deluxe ProStart Kit (services up to 25 clients)
  • Access to Wrapture Beauty Academy’s support team
  • International DermaplanePro Canada certification upon successful completion 

 

What’s in the included ProStart Kit?

  • Medical-grade dermaplaning blades by DermaplanePro

  • Professional DermaplanePro skincare products

  • Disposable tools

  • Enough supplies to complete 25 services

How is professional dermaplaning different from DIY at home with drugstore tools?

  • Precision: Professionals use a medical-grade scalpel. At-home blades are duller and less effective.
  • Safety: Certified professionals are trained to minimize risk and maintain hygiene.
  • Results: Professional dermaplaning offers deeper exfoliation, better product absorption, and glowing, even skin.
  • Customization: Pros tailor the treatment to the client’s skin.
  • Hygiene: Professional settings follow strict sanitation protocols that at-home tools can’t match.

    Will dermaplaning make hair grow back darker or thicker?

    No, that is a common myth. If that were true, just imagine the impact dermaplaning would have on treating hair loss! 

    Dermaplaning removes vellus hair (peach fuzz), which grows back at the same texture, colour, and rate as before. Nothing changes.

    Is dermaplaning just shaving?

    No, it is so much more than shaving. Sure, the smooth, fuzz-free look is a bonus, but dermaplaning is about way more than just hair removal. This treatment is a powerful exfoliation method that improves skin in multiple ways:

    • Removes dead skin cells, instantly revealing a brighter, smoother complexion.
    • Boosts skincare absorption, allowing serums and moisturizers to penetrate more effectively.
    • Softens the appearance of fine lines and evens skin texture, making skin look refreshed and refined.

    For clients dealing with dullness, rough texture, or congestion, dermaplaning can deliver instant results—making it a go-to treatment for that fresh, post-facial glow.

     

    Is dermaplaning safe for all skin types?

    While it’s safe for most, it’s not suitable for clients with widespread active acne, rosacea, or inflamed skin conditions. You will learn how to assess whether dermaplaning is appropriate and suggest alternatives when needed.

    Why should I choose DermaplanePro Canada for certification?
