FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
A traditional facial generally focuses on cleansing, hydration and treating the skin with topical products.
Dermaplaning uses controlled physical exfoliation to remove dead surface skin cells and fine vellus hair.
At the WHITE ROOM, we combine dermaplaning with a hydrating sheet mask and LED light therapy, giving you the benefits of professional exfoliation alongside a hydrating, restorative finish.
Both remove hair at the skin's surface, but professional dermaplaning is primarily an exfoliating skin treatment.
A trained therapist uses a sterile surgical blade and controlled technique to remove accumulated dead surface skin cells along with fine vellus hair.
At-home facial shaving primarily removes hair and shouldn't be considered equivalent to a professional dermaplaning treatment.
It can be appropriate for some sensitive skins because it doesn't rely on chemical exfoliation or heat. However, highly reactive, inflamed or compromised skin may not be suitable.
We assess your skin before treatment rather than assuming dermaplaning is appropriate for everyone.
The results typically last around 3-4 weeks, depending on your skin type and skincare routine. For the best results, regular treatments are recommended to maintain smooth and radiant skin.
Most skin types can benefit from dermaplaning, but it may not be ideal for those with active acne or highly sensitive skin. Consult with our specialists to determine if this treatment is appropriate for your skin.
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive and pain-free procedure. Many clients describe it as a relaxing experience with no discomfort involved.
No. Dermaplaning only removes the fine vellus hair (“peach fuzz”) on the surface of the skin. The hair will grow back at the same rate, texture, and colour as before — it won’t become thicker, darker, or coarser.
For the first 24–48 hours, avoid direct sun exposure, exfoliating products, and heat treatments (like saunas or intense workouts). Always apply sunscreen, as your skin will be more sensitive post-treatment.
