Dermaplaning, once a beauty secret in the modelling industry, has become a go-to treatment for achieving instantly glowing skin. This gentle but highly effective treatment removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, leaving your complexion feeling smoother and looking brighter.
How does it work?
Dermaplaning is a painless treatment in which we use a sterile blade to gently scrape away facial hair, or 'peach fuzz', consequently removing any buildup of dead skin cells, all which can contribute to making your skin look dull and uneven.
We love how dermaplaning also allows for better product absorption and flawless makeup application, making it ideal for a quick skin refresh before a special event or as part of your regular skincare routine.
Whether enjoyed on its own or combined with other facial treatments, dermaplaning is safe for nearly all skin types, including pregnant or breastfeeding women.
Does dermaplaning hurt?
No, dermaplaning is painless and feels like a gentle scraping sensation. It’s a comfortable and relaxing treatment.
Will my hair grow back thicker or darker?
No, dermaplaning does not affect hair regrowth. The fine vellus hair removed during the treatment will grow back at the same rate and texture as before.
How often should I get dermaplaning?
Most people benefit from dermaplaning every 3 to 6 weeks, but the frequency may vary depending on your skin type.
Can dermaplaning be combined with other treatments?
Yes, dermaplaning can enhance the results of other procedures like facials, peels or laser treatments, as it allows for better product penetration.
Is dermaplaning suitable for acne-prone skin?
Dermaplaning is not recommended for those with active or inflamed acne.
How will my skin look after dermaplaning?
Your skin will immediately appear smoother, brighter, more radiant, and feel softer.
Can I do dermaplaning at home?
While there are at-home dermaplaning tools available to be purchased, it’s safest to have the treatment done by a trained professional to avoid potential cuts, infections or skin irritation, and ensure the best results.
