Get answers to common questions about Dermaplaning.

Dermaplaning is a gentle manual exfoliation using a sterile blade to remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. It smooths texture, promotes cell turnover, and enhances product penetration with minimal downtime when performed by a licensed esthetician.

Yes for most skin types; dermaplaning is widely tolerated across tones. However, avoid during active acne, open lesions, or rosacea flare-ups. A consultation ensures it's appropriate and helps tailor the treatment to your skin's needs.

Sessions generally run thirty to forty-five minutes depending on whether combined with a facial or add-on treatments. Time includes consultation, gentle cleansing, the dermaplaning pass, and finishing serums to maximize results and comfort.

No — dermaplaning removes the fine vellus hair and does not change hair thickness or color. Regrowth returns to the hair's natural texture over several weeks, and regular sessions maintain smoothness without altering hair structure.

We recommend treatments every four to six weeks to sustain smooth texture and brightness. Your esthetician will personalize frequency based on skin type, concerns, and response, balancing exfoliation benefits with appropriate healing time.

Minimal downtime: skin may be slightly red or sensitive for twenty-four to forty-eight hours. Avoid direct sun, strong exfoliants, and heat immediately after. Use gentle sunscreen and moisturizers; your esthetician will provide clear post-care instructions to protect results.
