Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Add-on Dermaplaning.

Add-on Dermaplaning can be safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin with a consultation and experienced esthetician. We avoid active breakouts, use a gentle technique, and may recommend a patch test or modified approach to minimize irritation and protect skin.

Results typically last three to four weeks as vellus hair regrows and skin naturally exfoliates. Maintenance sessions every three to six weeks are recommended depending on hair growth, skin type, and desired glow. Home care helps prolong smoothness and radiance.

No — dermaplaning removes hair at the surface and does not change follicle structure. Regrowth may appear softer or finer, not thicker. Regular treatments maintain smoothness; results and texture vary by individual hair cycles and genetics.

Yes — dermaplaning pairs well with many facials like hydrating masks and LED therapy. Avoid aggressive chemical peels or strong resurfacing treatments the same day; your esthetician will plan a safe combination or schedule complementary services for a later appointment.

Arrive with clean skin and skip heavy makeup before your appointment. Avoid retinoids, exfoliating acids, and waxing for forty-eight to seventy-two hours prior to treatment. Tell us about medications or recent procedures so we can customize a safe dermaplaning session.

Aftercare includes daily broad-spectrum sunscreen, gentle cleansing, and hydration. Avoid strong active ingredients like retinoids or AHAs for forty-eight to seventy-two hours, and minimize sun exposure. Most clients resume makeup the same day; follow our esthetician's personalized homecare recommendations.
