What Is Dermaplaning & Waxing?

“Clients love dermaplaning because it gives them instant, glowing smoothness—it’s like hitting reset on your skin. Afterward, makeup glides on beautifully, making it a favorite for anyone looking for flawless results.”

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation technique that removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, commonly known as “peach fuzz,” from the surface of the skin. Using a sterile surgical scalpel, a trained esthetician carefully glides over the skin, gently scraping away these impurities to reveal a brighter, smoother layer of skin beneath.

This procedure provides an immediate, soft glow and enhances the skin’s texture, making it an ideal treatment for anyone seeking a more even, polished complexion.

The Benefits of Dermaplaning

Enhanced Product Absorption

By removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, dermaplaning allows serums, moisturizers, and other skincare products to penetrate more deeply and effectively, maximizing the benefits of your skincare routine.

Smooth, Even Makeup Application

Without fine hairs and dry patches, foundation and other makeup products glide on smoothly, resulting in a flawless, even finish that enhances your natural beauty.

Instantly Brighter, Glowing Skin

The gentle exfoliation reveals fresh, healthy skin underneath, giving an immediate boost to skin brightness and radiance.

Ease Fine Lines & Texture

Regular dermaplaning can soften the appearance of fine lines and improve skin texture, creating a smoother and more youthful look.

Non-Invasive, Suitable for All Skin Types

Unlike more intense exfoliating treatments, dermaplaning is gentle, making it a safe and effective choice for almost all skin types without causing irritation.

Zero Downtime

Dermaplaning requires no recovery time, so you can immediately return to your regular activities with fresh, glowing skin.

Effective Alternative to Other Exfoliation Methods

For those sensitive to chemical exfoliants or more abrasive treatments, dermaplaning provides an ideal option to keep skin smooth and rejuvenated.

What Is Waxing?

Waxing is a hair removal technique that involves applying a layer of warm or cold wax to the skin, which adheres to the hair. Once the wax hardens, it’s quickly pulled away, removing the hair from the root. This method effectively extracts hair, leading to smoother skin that can remain hair-free for several weeks.
At Be CLINICAL, waxing services are available for various areas of the body, including the face, arms, legs, back, chest, and bikini area. Their trained estheticians ensure a comfortable and professional experience, tailoring each session to meet individual client needs.

What Happens During a Wax

Waxing involves applying a thin layer of warm wax to the skin, which adheres tightly to the hair. Once the wax cools or is covered with a strip, it’s quickly pulled away, removing the hair directly from the root. Because waxing removes hair at the root level rather than just at the surface, like shaving, hair typically grows back slower and finer over time, resulting in smoother, longer-lasting results.

Waxing does involve some discomfort, especially for first-timers, as the hair is pulled out from the root. The sensation varies based on the area being treated and individual pain tolerance, but the process becomes easier over time as hair grows back finer and thinner with regular waxing. Estheticians at Be CLINICAL use techniques to minimize discomfort, and for sensitive areas, numbing products can sometimes be applied to reduce pain.
Yes, one of the primary benefits of waxing is that it slows down hair regrowth compared to shaving. Since shaving only cuts hair at the surface, regrowth can be seen within a day or two. Waxing, however, removes hair from the root, so it typically takes 3-6 weeks for hair to regrow, and regrowth often appears finer and softer. Most people schedule waxing every 4-6 weeks to maintain smooth, hair-free skin. Consistency is key, as regular waxing weakens the hair follicles over time, leading to finer, sparser regrowth.
