WHAT IS DERMAPLANNING

Dermaplaning is a method of exfoliation that consists of using a scalpel to gently scrape off the top layer of dulling dead skin cells in order to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion. Dermaplaning removes all the dead skin cells and also the facial hair, leaving the surface very smooth. Dermaplaning also allows for greater penetration of skincare products and creates a flawless canvas for makeup. Dermaplaning is used to help prepare the skin for more intrusive procedures such as chemical peels, dermapen, mesotherapy or laser treatments.

WHY CHOOSE DERMAPLANNING

Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation technique and a very popular treatment which is a safe and simple procedure. It is used to generate new skin cells and create a bright radiant complexion.

During this treatment we remove 3-4 weeks’ worth of dead skin cells and vellus hair, leaving the skin glowing and radiant. It also helps with flawless make up application and better penetration of products. All dermaplaning procedures include enzymatic peeling to enhance the results.

Results are visible immediately & Dermaplaning delivers fantastic results as a standalone treatment.

However, because of the removal of dead skin and hair, the skin will completely absorb any skincare you apply to it, therefore making a great priming treatment for procedures such as Chemical Peels.

We recommend 1 treatment per month for continuing benefits.

What happens during treatment DERMAPLANNING?

Treatment will begin with your practitioner thoroughly cleansing your skin. Next, they will gently stretch an area of the skin between their fingers to ensure the treated area is pulled taut. Holding a sterile gauge blade at a 45-degree angle they will use short swift strokes which will scrape away dead skin cells and remove vellus hair more commonly known as ‘peach fuzz’.

Will the ‘Peach Fuzz’ grow back quicker than before?

No, a lot of clients we meet are concerned that the hair on their face will grow back quicker or be more noticeable than before, this is simply not the case! Superficial Vellus Hair (Peach Fuzz) will grow back at the same rate and with the same texture as it was before treatment.

Is it painful?

No, Dermaplaning is not painful. The process is very gentle and relaxing.
