How the treatment works
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive treatment that gently exfoliates the skin while removing fine facial hair. At La Maison we focus on surface-layer exfoliation combined with removal of vellus hair to refine skin texture and surface smoothness. The process targets only the outermost layers rather than deeper tissue, avoiding lasers or injections.
Because the procedure removes dead surface cells and fine hairs, many clients notice a smoother feel and an immediate change in surface texture. Individual results vary by skin type and hair thickness; during your consultation we discuss realistic expectations and how factors like oiliness and prior skincare shape the outcome.
What to expect during visit
Your Dermaplaning Facial appointment is scheduled for 60 MINUTES. The visit begins with a brief intake to confirm skin history and recent treatments, followed by the gentle exfoliation and fine-hair removal. The esthetician finishes with calming products and practical aftercare guidance tailored to your skin and schedule.
You should expect minimal downtime; some temporary redness or warmth can occur and typically subsides quickly. Because the skin surface is freshly exposed, we recommend sun protection and gentle skincare for a short period afterward. Planning your appointment around your commute or shopping trip is easy from our Short Hills location.
Is it right for you
Dermaplaning is well suited to clients who want non-invasive removal of 'peach fuzz' and a surface exfoliation that can make skin feel smoother. It fits busy schedules — our Short Hills location is convenient for commuters and shoppers near The Mall at Short Hills and the Short Hills NJ Transit station, with early, late, and weekend options available.
Certain skin concerns may make dermaplaning less appropriate without a consultation. We review recent procedures, current products, and any active skin issues before recommending treatment. If needed, our team will suggest timing or alternatives so the choice aligns with your routine and the local climate and lifestyle in Short Hills.
