Dermaplaning FAQs

Dermaplaning is a physical/mechanical exfoliation using a specialized blade by your esthetician for the removal of built up dead skin cells and vellus hair. This treatment involves the use of the sterile, surgical blade to remove dead skin cells and vellus hair. As with the use of any sharp instrument, there is the possibility of nicks or cuts. Following the treatment, skin will be smoother, softer and better able to absorb the active ingredients in treatment and home skin care products.

This treatment helps anyone concerned about dry, dull skin, sallow complexion, enlarged pores, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, or acne scars. It is also beneficial to remove facial hair for those that are contraindicated for facial waxing.

“But won’t my hair grow back thicker?”  The answer is NO. There are two types of hair on the human body, terminal and vellus hair. Terminal hairs are the thick pigmented hairs that grow by the influence of hormones (legs, armpits, scalp, pubic area, etc). Vellus hairs are fine translucent hairs usually found on a woman’s face, back or chest.
