What happens after the treatment?
After Dermaplaning we will apply a soothing mask if you’d like. Following the procedure you’re immediately able to resume your normal activities, although you may have some redness.
Anyone who has unwanted facial vellus hair and is seeking an improvement in skin texture can benefit from Dermaplaning. It is safe for almost all skin types, including those with acne, rosacea or sensitive skin.
Will the facial hair come back darker?
No. Your facial hair will come back exactly as it was prior to a Dermaplaning treatment. It will not darken or become coarse.
How long do the results last?
Most patients will benefit from having a Dermaplaning treatment on a monthly basis or every 6 weeks. By doing so, you are removing stubborn, dead skin cells that have built up over the past few weeks. You will see the best results if you keep up with regular maintenance treatments and have a good skin care routine at home.

There is absolutely no downtime involved with a Dermaplaning facial treatment. You can immediately go back to your normal routine after leaving the spa. You can also apply products and make-up after a treatment. Don’t forget your sunscreen!
