How the treatment works
Your Signature Facial with Dermaplaning begins with a focused skin analysis and deep cleanse to remove oil and surface debris. The dermaplane is a precise manual exfoliation that gently lifts dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, improving surface texture. After dermaplaning we apply tailored serums and hydrating treatments chosen for your skin, finishing with soothing steps that create the immediate smoother, brighter appearance clients report.
How your skin responds depends on factors like skin type, current care, and treatment frequency. The esthetician will assess sensitivities and adapt pressure and products accordingly. Sessions last 70 MINUTES and start at $120; results such as improved texture and a more even-looking surface vary by individual and are shaped by follow-up care and local coastal conditions like mild humidity and cool temperatures.
During your appointment in Monterey
In our Old Monterey treatment rooms near Abrego Street and Fisherman's Wharf you'll find a calm, spa-focused setting designed for relaxation. Many clients describe feeling deeply relaxed and refreshed after this facial. The therapist uses steady, controlled strokes during dermaplaning; you may feel gentle pressure but not pain. The appointment is paced to allow time for consultation, the dermaplane step, targeted products, and a soothing finish.
Aftercare is straightforward: expect immediate smoother texture and occasional light redness that usually subsides within a short period. We advise using gentle cleansers and daily sun protection until the surface settles, and avoiding strong home exfoliants while the skin regenerates. Your esthetician will provide personalized aftercare guidance at the end of the 70 MINUTES session so you know how to protect your renewed skin.
Choosing timing and frequency
Frequency depends on your goals and skin response; many clients schedule regular visits during seasons with higher event demand. Our busiest months are May and June for wedding and graduation prep, and November and December before holiday parties, so plan ahead. During consultation the esthetician will recommend an interval based on your skin, local climate factors, and how quickly your complexion returns to baseline.
This facial suits people wanting smoother texture, a brighter look, or improved makeup application—outcomes clients commonly report. It appeals to local professionals, visitors preparing for events, and residents from surrounding communities like Pacific Grove and Seaside. Our Old Monterey location is convenient from Highway 1 and the Munras Avenue corridor, making appointments reachable for commuters and visitors to nearby landmarks.
