Detailed Breakdown
What is a Swiss Facial?
Inspired by the meticulous skin rituals of Swiss skincare, this facial emphasizes hydration, oxygenation, and cellular renewal. Unlike basic facials, Swiss techniques focus on long massage sequences, layered serums, and thermal therapy to invigorate the skin. You’ll leave the treatment bed with more than just a glow—you’ll feel your skin breathe again.
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation method that uses a sterile surgical blade to gently remove the top layer of dead skin and vellus hair (aka peach fuzz). This process reveals a smoother, brighter complexion and allows skincare products to absorb more effectively. It also preps the skin perfectly for any subsequent treatments—like the deeply nourishing serums in a Swiss facial.
Why They Work So Well Together
Pairing dermaplaning with a Swiss facial is like clearing a garden before planting new flowers. By removing the dull top layer of skin, dermaplaning allows the serums and masks used in the facial to penetrate deeper, enhancing their effectiveness. The result? Smooth, dewy, glass-like skin that radiates health from the inside out.
Treatment Benefits
- Instant Glow: Dead skin and fuzz are gone, leaving nothing but smooth, luminous skin.
- Improved Product Absorption: Serums and masks are more effective after dermaplaning.
- Non-Irritating Exfoliation: No harsh acids or downtime, just a gentle physical exfoliation.
- Flawless Makeup Application: Skin becomes a perfect canvas for makeup—no more clinging to dry patches or fine hairs.
- Gentle Hydration Boost: Swiss facial techniques deeply hydrate and soothe the skin barrier.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
At My Skintastic, your session begins with a skin consultation to determine any sensitivities or target areas. First, dermaplaning is performed using light, feathering strokes to gently remove dead skin and peach fuzz. Then comes the Swiss facial—layers of serums, creams, and oxygenated treatments are massaged in, followed by a mask tailored to your skin type.

FAQs
1. Is the Swiss Facial with Dermaplaning safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, it’s generally safe for sensitive skin. Dermaplaning is gentle, and the Swiss facial is customized with calming, hydrating ingredients. However, a patch test or consultation is recommended for rosacea-prone or inflamed skin.
2. Does dermaplaning make hair grow back thicker?
No, that’s a myth. Dermaplaning only removes the soft, vellus hair on the surface, which grows back at the same rate and texture. It does not stimulate thick or coarse regrowth.
3. Can I wear makeup afterward?
Absolutely. In fact, many people find that makeup glides on more smoothly and looks more flawless post-treatment. Just be sure to use clean brushes and breathable products.
4. How long do the results last?
Most clients notice visible results for 2–3 weeks, depending on their skin cycle and skincare routine. Scheduling treatments every 4–6 weeks helps maintain long-term radiance.
5. Is there any aftercare required?
Very minimal. You’ll want to wear SPF and avoid heavy exfoliants for a few days post-treatment. Hydrating serums and a gentle cleanser are all you need to keep your glow going.
