Facial and Dermaplaning in St. Petersburg

Facial and Dermaplaning in St. Petersburg

Dermaplaning paired with a facial removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair from the surface of your skin. The result is smoother texture, better product absorption, and a brighter complexion. Many people combine dermaplaning with a customized facial to maximize glow and help active ingredients work more effectively.

At KRIDO Wellness, every dermaplaning facial includes red light therapy and lymphatic drainage massage. You leave with softer, brighter skin and no downtime.

What Dermaplaning Does

Dermaplaning is gentle physical exfoliation. A surgical-grade blade removes the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz). Your skin feels smoother right away, and makeup goes on more evenly.

A common concern: will the hair grow back thicker or darker? No. Shaving does not change the hair follicle. The hair that grows back will be the same texture and color it was before.

Many people find their skincare products absorb more evenly afterward. When paired with a facial, masks, serums and peptides go onto freshly exfoliated skin.

When to Choose Dermaplaning with a Facial

Dermaplaning works well if you want to:

• Smooth rough or uneven texture.
• Remove fine facial hair that shows under makeup.
• Brighten dull skin.
• Help anti-aging products absorb better.
• Prep your skin before an event.

It is safe for most skin types. If you have active acne, open wounds, or certain skin conditions, the team will recommend a different treatment at your consultation.

What Happens at Your Visit

You start with a skin consultation. Your esthetician looks at your skin, asks about your routine and goals, and confirms dermaplaning is a good fit.

The dermaplaning facial includes:

• Deep cleanse.
• Dermaplaning (gentle exfoliation with a sterile blade).
• A customized Circadia mask chosen for your skin type and concerns.
• Serums, peptides and moisturizer.
• Red light therapy, which research suggests may support collagen.
• Lymphatic drainage massage to help temporarily reduce puffiness.

The experience is calming and comfortable. Each of our estheticians has 30 years of esthetics experience, and the treatment is built around what your skin needs that day.

How Often to Get Dermaplaning

For most people, dermaplaning every four to six weeks aligns with the skin’s natural renewal cycle. If you are working on specific concerns like uneven texture or pigmentation, your esthetician may recommend more frequent visits for a period of time.

Your plan will be personalized at your consultation.

For deeper concerns like acne scars or surgical scars, talk to a dermatologist or medical provider. KRIDO offers cosmetic treatments, not medical care.

How KRIDO Facials Work

KRIDO facials are built on Circadia professional skincare. Circadia formulas are designed to work with your skin’s circadian rhythm, supporting barrier function during the day and cellular repair at night. The goal is long-term skin health, not only a temporary glow.

Red light therapy is included with every facial. Research suggests red light may support collagen production and improve fine lines and skin texture. Lymphatic drainage can temporarily reduce puffiness, and many clients find it relaxing.

What People Say

I had the absolute best experience at Krido Wellness!! I went in for a dermaplane and from the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with open arms. I sat down with the owner, Kristina and she took the time to discuss my current skincare routine, what I’m struggling with and my goals. You could tell she really has such a passion for what she does and after learning more about her story, it was clear that her mission is to help people look and feel their best. The spa itself is very clean, professional, and has a calming atmosphere so you can truly relax. My aesthetician Amber was incredible!! She is so knowledgable and friendly and was so thorough with my treatment. She wasn’t pushing products on me, she just really wanted me to have the best possible experience. I literally couldn’t believe my skin afterward - had to do a double take in the mirror lol it was GLOWING, rejuvenated and felt amazing. I was so impressed and loved it so much that I booked a facial before I left. And to top it off, since it was my first visit, I left with a gift package and handwritten thank you note! That personalized touch is so thoughtful and shows how much they truly care about their clients. Highly recommend Krido Wellness and can’t wait to go back! Thank you ladies!

Your esthetician will give you specific aftercare guidance at your visit. In general, it is best to let your skin rest for the remainder of the day. Makeup typically goes on more smoothly after dermaplaning.

How often should I get dermaplaning?

Most people benefit from dermaplaning every four to six weeks, which aligns with the skin’s natural renewal cycle. Your esthetician will recommend a schedule based on your skin type and goals.
