Dermaplaning

How does dermaplaning work?

During a dermaplaning treatment, a qualified aesthetician will soothe your skin with a serum that cleans, moisturises, and prepares your skin for the procedure. Your aesthetician will then scrape a microblade tool at a 45-degree angle across your skin. Afterward, a soothing balm is applied to the skin to both nourish and hydrate it.

This stand-alone treatment will effectively remove peach fuzz, light blemishes, fine lines, and dead skin cells in a quick and painless manner. Many patients report the entire experience is pleasant and relaxing. Dermaplaning can be used with chemical peels depending on your skincare needs, though many patients find the dermaplaning itself is enough to see a difference in the quality of your skin’s texture and appearance.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT AFTER DERMAPLANING?

While dermaplaning is by far the least invasive and irritating method for maximum exfoliation, you should take care to apply sunscreen to your face after treatment to ensure you’re protected from UV damage to your new skin layers. Oftentimes, more than one skin treatment can be joined with dermaplaning to increase the benefit that this treatment offers.
