Advanced Dermaplaning Facial Smooth. Bright. Refreshed.
Reveal softer, more radiant skin with an Advanced Dermaplaning Facial at Cavana Ridge Medical Aesthetics. This gentle exfoliation treatment removes dead skin and fine vellus hair (“peach fuzz”), leaving your complexion smoother, brighter, and better prepared to absorb your skincare products.
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a precise, non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that uses a sterile blade to gently remove the outer layer of dead skin cells along with fine facial hair. The treatment helps:
- Smooth skin texture
- Reduce the appearance of fine lines and mild acne scars
- Improve uneven skin tone
- Enhance the effectiveness of skincare products
Dermaplaning is ideal for most skin types, including sensitive skin or skin with visible small blood vessels, which may be unsuitable for other exfoliation methods. Certain areas, like the eyelids and nose, are excluded due to facial contours.
Services We Provide

Joanne Johnston
Co-Owner & Advanced Aesthetician
Hello, I’m Joanne — Co-Owner of Cavana Ridge and an aesthetician for over 25 years. I have been passionately dedicated to this industry from the moment I entered it, continuously learning from some of the most respected and advanced educators and leaders in the field. Their influence shaped my commitment to excellence and to always bringing the best possible care and results to my clients.
I am, first and foremost, a people person. I believe that everyone deserves to feel beautiful, confident, and cared for — inside and out. As we all evolve and age with new skin concerns, I have focused my continued professional growth in the world of skin and medical aesthetics, working with only the most trusted, evidence-based modalities and technologies. Leading our medical aesthetics team at Cavana Ridge brings me so much pride, as we support both our patients and one another in achieving incredible outcomes.
There is nothing more rewarding than seeing someone look in the mirror and truly love what they see — not because they look different, but because they feel like the best version of themselves. My goal is to deliver exceptional results while ensuring every person I treat feels fully comfortable, supported, understood, and treated like royalty throughout their journey.
Outside of work, my greatest joy is my family — my husband and business partner Lee, and our four beautiful children: William, Matteo, and our twins, Chloe and Leo. I love fitness, all things beauty, and spending time connecting with the people I love. Though I often put others before myself, that’s simply who I am — it fills my heart.
I am excited to continue nurturing the relationships I’ve built over many years, while also welcoming new faces into the Cavana Ridge family. I can’t wait to meet you, to listen to your goals, and to help you feel amazing — every single step of the way.
With warmth and gratitude,
Joanne
