How often can I have Dermaplaning done?
It is recommended to wait 4-6 weeks in between treatments.

What can I expect the day of my treatment?
Your appointment will run between 30-60 minutes. The procedure itself is painless and requires no down time. You will be able to apply your make-up immediately afterwards. The use of a high sunscreen (SPF 30 or more) is highly recommended.

No, this is not possible as the vellus hairs that are removed are a much finer hair type than that of our other body hair. The follicle and hair type will not be affected, it will grow in the same as it did before.
