What is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a highly effective yet gentle physical exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile surgical scalpel to carefully remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells along with fine vellus hair - commonly known as “peach fuzz.”

The result is instantly smoother, brighter skin with improved texture. By removing the barrier of dead cells and fine hair, your skincare products can penetrate more effectively, and makeup applies flawlessly.

Dermaplaning is a wonderful standalone treatment and also pairs beautifully with other treatments like chemical peels or Hydrafacial for enhanced results. It's particularly popular with brides-to-be seeking that perfect, luminous glow.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a gentle physical exfoliation technique that uses a sterile surgical scalpel, held at a 45-degree angle, to carefully scrape away dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the surface of the skin. The result is incredibly smooth, bright, and radiant skin.

Does dermaplaning hurt?

Not at all. Dermaplaning is a painless treatment that most clients find very relaxing. You'll feel a light scraping sensation across the skin, but there's no discomfort involved. It's one of the gentlest facial treatments available.

Will my hair grow back thicker?

This is one of the most common myths about dermaplaning, and the answer is no. Vellus hair (peach fuzz) is structurally different from terminal hair and will grow back at the same rate, thickness, and colour as before.

How often should I have dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning can be performed every 3-4 weeks, which aligns with your skin's natural cell turnover cycle. It can also be combined with other treatments for enhanced results.

Is there any downtime?

There is no downtime with dermaplaning. Your skin may appear slightly pink immediately after treatment, but this subsides quickly. You can apply makeup and return to your normal routine straight away.
