Dermaplaning FAQs
Dermaplaning is a gentle treatment, though you might feel slight tingling or sensitivity, which will quickly fade during the session. Your therapist will ensure you’re comfortable throughout the process.
No, dermaplaning targets fine, soft facial hair that is usually light in color. The treatment doesn’t alter your hair type, so it will return as soft and fine as before.
Dermaplaning removes the outermost layer of your skin, which acts as its natural protection. It’s essential to follow your therapist’s pre- and post-care instructions. Be sure to apply an SPF 30+ sunscreen post-treatment, even if you won’t be in direct sunlight, to protect your skin.
This treatment is not suitable for clients with areas of thick hair growth or have congested, acne skin.
For the best results, we suggest starting with an initial course of 4 treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart. To maintain smooth, radiant skin and keep hair growth minimal, treatments can then be spaced out every 6 weeks for continued benefits.
