DERMAPLANING

DERMAPLANING

Dermaplaning is becoming one of the most popular treatments for the skin. Dermaplaning is a technique which uses a sterile, sharp scalpel to gently and safely remove vellus hair also known as 'peach fuzz' as well as dead skin cells from the top layers of the epidermis which can make the appearance of the skin look lacklustered. The cells and vellus hair being removed during the treatment often trap oils which lead to clogged pores and spots/comedones. This procedure leaves the skin looking clean, clear and plump. Dermaplaning is also a good anti-aging treatment as while being performed it stimulates the cells in the deepest layers of the skin and begins to produce collagen aiding in skin tightening and firming. These benefits can take up to a week before they become visible. The vellus hair being removed does not grow back thicker, darker or more concentrated and doesn't feel 'stubbly' once the growth process begins, instead it grows back exactly the same as it was before it was removed. 

Dermaplaning has many benefits to the skin in terms of makeup application, acne and anti-aging. These include:
- Promoting smoother skin
- Removing facial hair which traps oils and dirt
- Provides deeper product penetration
- Comedone extraction is easier
- Reduces the appearance of post acne scarring
- Diminishes the appearance of fine lines
- No downtime
- Can be perfomed along side other treatments including Chemical Peels and Dermarolling
- Can be performed on sensitive skin types 

Dermaplaning can be performed as a treatment on it's own or can be combined with other treatments such as Chemical peels, LED light therapy and Microneedling/Dermaroller.

Frequently Asked Questions
  • How Does Dermaplaning Work?

    Your Dermaplaining treatment will consist of a consultation follwed by a deep cleansing facial, tailored to your skin requirements prior to your dermaplaining treatment.


    Dermaplaning works by using a sterile, sharp Scalpel to safely and effectively remove vellus hair (peach fuzz) and dead skin cells which cause blocked pores. Just like an exfoliation, it removes any barriers which would stop your skincare from penetrating – meaning your products often work much more effectively after a treatment.”

  • How long will I need to recover?

    There is no downtime with Dermaplaning unless it is being combined with a peel or Microneedling. Downtime with a peel can take a few days whereas Microneedling can be as little as a couple hours. 

  • How does Dermaplaning differ from Microdermabrasion?

    Microdermabrasion is a mechanical exfoliation method but has no effect on the vellus hair. It is more likely to aggrevate sensitive skin and cause redness on the skin. Dermaplaning is a safer option for all skin types including sensitive skins. 

  • Can Dermaplaning be carried out with other facial treatments?

    Dermaplaning removes lots of dead skin and debris meaning the skin can absorb products easier and more efficiently. Dermaplaning works on the surface of the skin and is non-invasive, this makes it perfect to pair with deeper treatments such as LED light therapy, Chemical peels and Microneedling. 

  • Does the vellus hair grow back thicker or darker?

    No the vellus hair grows back exactly the same as it is before it's removed.
