Dermaplaning is a simple but effective treatment that can do wonders for your skin. The process involves using a surgical blade to gently scrape over the skin which removes the superficial layer of dead skin and 'peach fuzz' hair from the face.
Removing this dead layer not only improves the texture of the skin it can also reduce fine lines and exfoliates the skin.
Dermaplaning is great alternative to those who may not like the feeling of a microdermabrasion treatment but want to keep their skin looking and feeling fresh.
Your aesthetician will first do a quick cleanse of your skin in preparation for the treatment.
They will then use a sterile and disposable surgical blade to gently scrape over your face in short strokes removing any dead skin and hair. Depending on the package booked, you may also receive a customised mask and be placed under an LED light to finish. LED is a great way to calm the skin and can work wonders for outbreaks or acne.
The dermaplaning treatment should leave you with smoother and cleaner feeling skin, which in turn can lead to better absorption of moisturisers and easier application of makeup.
Treatment time typically runs from 30-45 minutes.
After Care
Your skin may be sensitive after your treatment and as such you need to treat it with care. Use a gentle cleanser to wash your skin (like Cetaphil) and if possible avoid applying makeups like foundations for 24-48 hours after treatment.
However, in case you experience pain, discomfort or a burning sensation, you will need to contact us directly.
How many treatments will I need?
Dermaplaning can be done as regularly as every 4-8 weeks depending on your skin type. Check with your aesthetician how far apart they suggest you should make your rebookings when in clinic.
How long until I see results?
With dermaplaning the results will be mostly instant.
