Skin Care & Aesthetics in New Orleans – Kimball Cosmetics

Dermaplaning New Orleans – Welcome To Kimball Cosmetics

Have you noticed your skin feeling a little dull, with makeup not quite sitting right or peach fuzz catching the light in all the wrong ways? I’ve been there too, and it’s not as rare as you might think. That’s where dermaplaning comes in—a simple and effective way to get smoother, brighter skin that feels fresh and flawless. If you’re in New Orleans, there’s one place that does it best: Kimball Cosmetics, where Dr. Kimball has been helping locals feel radiant and confident over a year.
Dr. Kimball believes skin care is more than just treatments—it’s about helping you feel amazing in your own skin. Her team at Kimball Cosmetics has perfected the art of dermaplaning, providing personalized care to address your skin’s unique needs. Whether you’re a skincare newbie or someone looking to upgrade your regimen, dermaplaning could be exactly what you’ve been looking for.

What Is Dermaplaning?

Alright, so what is dermaplaning exactly? Think of it as the ultimate exfoliation treatment. Dermaplaning is a procedure where a small, sharp blade (don’t worry, it’s super safe and gentle) is used to remove the top layer of dead skin cells and that pesky peach fuzz. It’s performed by a trained professional like Dr. Kimball or one of her expert team members.

This isn’t your average DIY exfoliation. By clearing away all that dulling debris, dermaplaning reveals fresh, glowing skin that feels as smooth as glass. Plus, without that layer of fuzz, your makeup goes on like a dream, and skincare products sink in so much better. It’s like hitting the reset button for your face.

Why Dermaplaning Is Perfect For Life In New Orleans

If you’ve lived in New Orleans for any amount of time, you already know—this city is magic, but it’s not exactly kind to your skin. The humid air, unpredictable weather, and constant exposure to the elements can lead to buildup, clogged pores, and uneven skin texture.
Dr. Kimball jokes with her clients from neighborhoods like Uptown, Lakeview, or the French Quarter that she can practically see Mardi Gras and hot summer days in their skin! One regular told her, “I just want my face to feel clean and fresh again,” after months of late nights and endless fun in the New Orleans heat.

Dermaplaning is like a deep, gentle cleanse for your face. It’s quick, effective, and ideal for the fast-paced New Orleans lifestyle. Whether you’re heading to Jazz Fest or back to Sunday brunch in the Marigny, it leaves your skin glowing and camera-ready.

Benefits Of Dermaplaning

Still on the fence? Here’s why dermaplaning is one of the most-loved treatments at Kimball Cosmetics.

Exfoliates Dead Skin Cells

Over time, dead skin builds up on your face, making it look dull and uneven. Dermaplaning clears all that away, leaving fresh, smooth skin behind.

Removes Peach Fuzz

You know that fine, velvety hair that seems to catch the light right when you don’t want it to? Dermaplaning gets rid of it, so your skin looks flawless up close and in photos.

Smoother Makeup Application

After dermaplaning, your foundation and concealer will glide on so smoothly, you might forget you’re wearing makeup. It’s a total game changer.

Enhances Skincare Absorption

Without all those layers of dead skin and peach fuzz in the way, your serums, moisturizers, and other skincare products can penetrate deeper and work better.

Immediate Results

There’s no waiting around—you’ll see and feel the difference in your skin right after your session.

Ideal for All Skin Types

Whether you have dry, oily, or even sensitive skin, dermaplaning is gentle enough to work for almost everyone.

What Happens During A Dermaplaning Session At Kimball Cosmetics?

If you’re curious about what to expect, here’s a step-by-step look at how Dr. Kimball and her team make dermaplaning a relaxing and rewarding experience.

Consultation and Prep

Before your session, you’ll have a quick chat with Dr. Kimball or one of her skilled aestheticians about your skin goals. They’ll assess your skin and explain how dermaplaning can fit into your overall skincare routine. Then, they’ll cleanse your skin to create the perfect canvas.

The Treatment

Using a sterile blade and steady hands, your provider will gently scrape away that top layer of dead skin and peach fuzz. Don’t worry—it’s not painful at all. Most clients describe it as a relaxing sensation, almost like getting a light facial massage.

Post-Treatment Care

After the treatment, your skin may feel a bit more sensitive, so Dr. Kimball’s team will apply soothing serums and sunscreen to protect your fresh new glow. They’ll also give you tips for maintaining your results at home.

Each session lasts about 30 minutes, which means you can easily fit it into your busy schedule. Whether you’re squeezing in some self-care on your lunch break or treating yourself before a big event, dermaplaning is quick and convenient.
