1. Best Way to Remove Facial Hair for Sensitive Skin
When your skin is sensitive, finding a peach fuzz removal method that won’t irritate can be challenging. Some techniques may be suitable, while others can leave your complexion looking and feeling stressed. Depilatory creams, for example, use strong chemicals to remove hair temporarily—these chemicals can be harsh on sensitive or reactive skin and may even cause burns if misused. Waxing can be an option when done by a professional esthetician, but regular appointments can be time-consuming and expensive.
Sonic dermaplaning, by contrast, is a chemical-free way to remove facial hair in fewer than 10 minutes a week, right at home. The patented sonic technology and specialized Microfine™ Edge work in tandem to lift off peach fuzz safely and gently, leaving your skin smooth, glowing, and fuzz-free rather than red or irritated. One word of caution: if you have cystic acne, avoid dermaplaning over active bumps or breakouts—and always check with your dermatologist before using any facial hair removal technique.
2. Gives Your Skin an Instant Glow
Sonic dermaplaning isn’t just about peach fuzz removal—it also delivers an immediate “glass skin” radiance. How? Along with removing vellus hair, you’re clearing away the top layer of dead skin cells and debris that everyone has. This buildup stops light from reflecting off your face, dimming your natural glow.
Once that dull layer is gone, you’ll notice skin that looks fresher, brighter, and younger. Light can now bounce off the high points of your face, giving you a naturally lit-from-within effect. We’ll take it!
3. Keeps Your Skin Safe
Yes, you can remove facial hair with a disposable razor, but that leaves your skin more prone to nicks and cuts. Plus, shaving doesn’t offer the scientifically studied exfoliating effects of sonic dermaplaning.
When Dermanique created the Sonic Pro device, safety was a top priority. The award-winning sonic technology ensures a smooth glide instead of the skipping or tugging that cheap razors can cause. Meanwhile, the Microfine™ Edge features a patented safety cage to shield your skin, so you can perform your routine with confidence.
4. Improves Skin Over Time
The Sonic Pro device isn’t just a peach fuzz remover—it actively enhances skin texture and tone over the long haul. Clinical research with participants aged 35 to 65 found that, after using Sonic Pro weekly for four weeks, 94% showed a decrease in the appearance of dark spots, and 97% saw fewer visible fine lines and wrinkles. It’s more proof that consistency in your skincare routine really does pay off!
5. Recommended by Dermatologists and Estheticians
Dermatology pros tend to be very selective when it comes to facial hair removal devices, but Sonic Pro has earned respect for its unique safety features and extra skincare benefits. “I’m a trained medical esthetician, and I use Dermanique in my practice,” says esthetician Kara Sevransky. “I absolutely recommend it for exfoliation. My clients love it. We can treat the skin more effectively, with the added bonus of removing peach fuzz.”
6. Hair Won’t Grow Back Thicker or Faster
Finally, eliminating peach fuzz won’t make it return thicker, darker, or faster. Neither shaving nor sonic dermaplaning alters hair follicles or growth patterns. Because vellus hairs on the face are fine and downy, they also won’t sprout back with that blunt tip you might see in coarser body hair. “Your peach fuzz will grow back exactly as it was before you performed your treatment. No thicker, no darker, no different,” confirms Dr. Arisa Ortiz, a board-certified dermatologist and director of laser and cosmetic dermatology at UC San Diego Health.
