No. Dermaplaning feels similar to a gentle scraping or brushing sensation. Most patients find it comfortable and even relaxing. The process does not involve any numbing agents or recovery time, making it an easy, quick appointment.

Where Confidence Begins
Take the first step toward feeling more like you—refreshed, radiant, and confident in your skin.
Dermaplaning works for most skin types and tones, especially if you want smoother skin without downtime. That being said, we may not recommend it for patients with active acne or certain skin conditions.
You can expect instantly smoother skin, a brighter complexion, and better makeup application. Skincare products also absorb more effectively afterward, allowing active ingredients to penetrate deeper for longer-lasting benefits.
You’ll see and feel the results immediately. Skin looks brighter, feels smoother, and makeup applies more evenly right after your session. The instant glow is one of the main reasons people love dermaplaning.
We recommend scheduling dermaplaning every 4 to 6 weeks. This timing aligns with your skin’s natural cell turnover cycle, keeping your complexion smooth, fresh, and radiant all year long.
Dermaplaning uses a medical-grade blade at a precise angle to remove both dead skin and fine hair. Shaving only removes hair and lacks the professional exfoliation benefits that boost skin brightness and texture.
No, dermaplaning does not change hair texture, thickness, or growth rate. The fine hair (vellus hair) removed will grow back at the same rate and with the same texture as before.
No, there is no downtime. Your skin may look slightly pink for a short period, but you can return to normal activities immediately. Many clients get dermaplaning before special occasions for the instant glow.
Yes. Dermaplaning pairs well with customized clinical facials, chemical peels, or hydrating masks. Removing the top layer of dead skin allows other treatments to work more effectively and deliver even better results.
Yes, but we recommend waiting 24 hours after your treatment. Many clients love how smooth and even their skin looks without it. If you choose to wear makeup, you’ll notice it blends flawlessly and stays fresh longer.
Avoid harsh exfoliants, retinoids, and direct sun exposure for 24 hours. Apply a quality moisturizer and sunscreen daily to protect your newly revealed skin and maintain your results.
Absolutely! Men benefit from dermaplaning just as much as women. We avoid bearded areas and focus on exfoliating other parts of the face for a smoother, healthier complexion.
