DERMAPLANING

Achieve fresher, smoother and rejuvenated skin with our relaxing Dermaplaning treatment.

Dermaplaning (also known as epidermal levelling) is a non-surgical, safe treatment designed to remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, otherwise known as “peach fuzz” from the face and hands.

By gently exfoliating the top layers of the skin using a specialised blade, where dirt, small hairs and debris reside, we are able to reveal new fresh skin to leave you looking smooth, rejuvenated and glowing!

How often will I need Dermaplaning?

We recommend ongoing treatments of dermaplaning every 2-3 weeks as vellus hairs start to regrow.  For exfoliation and removing dead skin cells we suggest treatments every 4 weeks.

Will Dermaplaning cause thick stubble?

No.  Dermaplaning does not encourage the regrowth of thicker darker hair on the skin.  Hair will regrow similarly to what you had previously.

What is the difference between Dermaplaning and Microdermabrasion?

Both treatments are effective at exfoliating the skin.  Where dermaplaning uses a handheld blade to remove dead skin cells, microdermabrasion uses a small machine that provides a diamond tip exfoliation and suction at the same time.  Microdermabrasion is a more intensive exfoliating treatment and is more effective where a deeper clean is desired.  Microdermabrasion however is unable to remove vellus hair and therefore cannot achieve the same smooth hairless result that dermaplaning provides.
