Process Involved in Replacing Composite Veneers with Porcelain Veneers?

88Angel
I currently have composite veneers over the top row of teeth. They need replacing so I am considering replacing them with porcelain vaneers. Will my composite vaneers need to be removed in order to shave down and take an impression/mould of my teeth? Will they be left bare until the porcelain veneers have been completed and applied? I'm concerned I won't be able to bar the sensitivity.
