Get answers to common questions about Dermaplanning.

Dermaplanning uses a sterile surgical blade to gently exfoliate the skin's surface, removing dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz). The treatment instantly smooths texture, brightens the complexion, and prepares skin for better product absorption with minimal discomfort or downtime.

Most skin types tolerate dermaplaning well, especially dry, normal, and combination skin. Not recommended for active acne, inflamed rosacea, or very sensitive/reactive skin. A consultation at La Maison determines suitability and any pre-treatment precautions to ensure safe results.

Dermaplanning removes peach fuzz temporarily by cutting hair at the surface; it does not change hair growth cycles or cause thicker regrowth. Hair typically returns within a few weeks to months depending on individual growth patterns and hormonal factors.

A full dermaplaning session at La Maison generally takes 30 to 45 minutes, including consultation and cleansing. Time may vary if combined with add-ons like a chemical peel, facial, or targeted treatments for optimal results.

Expect immediate smoothness and a radiant glow with little to no downtime. Skin may be slightly sensitive or pink for 24–48 hours. Avoid sun exposure, strong exfoliants, and heavy active ingredients; use SPF and gentle skincare as recommended.

Yes. Dermaplanning pairs well with chemical peels, hydrating facials, and targeted serums to boost results. Your specialist will recommend timing and sequencing to maximize benefits and minimize irritation, tailoring combinations to your skin goals and sensitivity.
