How the treatment works
The Dermaplaning Express Facial Add-On combines Hydropeptide topical products with a sonic dermaplaning approach that gently exfoliates the skin’s surface. The treatment is designed to reduce surface build-up and fine facial fuzz, improving texture, tone and surface radiance without aggressive resurfacing. Sessions are listed at a duration of 45 minutes and a price of $0 as an add-on.
Results are shaped by individual skin characteristics: density of vellus hair, recent exfoliation history, and current skin sensitivity. Because this is a gentle surface procedure, the trade-off is fast, noticeable smoothing without deep resurfacing; clients should discuss any skin conditions or recent professional treatments before proceeding so the technician can tailor the approach.
What to expect during service
As an Add-On service, the procedure is performed using Hydropeptide products alongside the salon's sonic dermaplaning method. Your technician will work systematically across the face to address uneven texture while avoiding areas of active irritation. The in-chair time is scheduled for 45 minutes and listed at $0 as an add-on, which covers assessment and the treatment itself.
Clients commonly report a smooth surface and immediate skin luminosity without prolonged downtime; the method is intended for a refreshed look rather than deep corrective resurfacing. Because Pittsburgh’s seasonal climate can influence skin—dry indoor heat in winter, sun exposure in summer—bring up recent weather-related skin changes during your consultation.
Aftercare and local notes
Post-treatment care focuses on gentle skincare and sun protection. We recommend avoiding abrasive exfoliants and introducing actives gradually after the session; physical comfort varies, and some sensitivity or warmth immediately afterward is normal. Discuss any prescription topical products with your technician so they can advise how soon to resume them safely.
Timing your service can depend on local routines: Greentree’s late-afternoon and early-evening appointments suit Parkway West commuters, while weekend slots work for families from nearby suburbs. Because Pittsburgh has four distinct seasons, consider scheduling around outdoor events or travel when you want to showcase the treatment’s immediate smoothing effect.
