Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Dermaplaning Full Facial.

A Dermaplaning Full Facial is a professional exfoliation using a surgical scalpel to gently remove dead skin cells and vellus hair. Combined with our signature facial steps, it reveals smoother, brighter skin and improves product penetration with immediate results and no downtime.

Most clients experience minimal to no discomfort; the treatment feels like a light scraping sensation. We use gentle technique and can apply calming serums afterward. Numbing is rarely needed, and the procedure is well tolerated by sensitive clients when performed by trained professionals.

Results are immediate — skin looks smoother and more radiant right away. Effects typically last three to four weeks, depending on individual hair growth and skincare routine. For lasting benefits, we recommend maintenance treatments every four to six weeks.

Ideal candidates include people with dull texture, fine vellus hair, or uneven skin tone seeking immediate improvement. Not recommended for clients with active cystic acne, open lesions, recent chemical peels, or those using strong retinoids until cleared by a professional.

Before your appointment avoid waxing, aggressive exfoliants, and strong retinoids for at least one week. After treatment, protect skin with SPF, use gentle hydrating products, and avoid active acids for three to five days. Follow your esthetician’s personalized aftercare instructions.

Dermaplaning removes peach fuzz but does not change hair thickness or growth rate. Vellus hair typically grows back the same texture; any perceived thickness is temporary. Regular sessions maintain smoothness and keep makeup application flawless without stimulating coarser hair.
