What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is an effective skin exfoliating treatment, involving the use of a 10-inch scalpel which gently scrapes off dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, as well as removing microscopic hairs. The build-up of dead skin cells and unwanted hair can make complexion appear dull and flaky, as well as causing blockages from clogged pores.
Dermaplaning is a mechanical exfoliation treatment that helps clients to maintain an even, beautiful and healthy skin glow.
Recommended for all skin types, we find that clients with sun damage, fine lines, and dry skin all benefit from our Dermaplaning treatments.
Dermaplaning treatments last around 40 minutes, and there’s no downtime apart from a little redness afterwards. Our skin care experts also recommend that care is taken in using any SPF products after Dermaplaning.
This facial treatment delivers instant improvements in skin texture and tone, and long-term results include increased cell production, less wrinkles, fewer dark skin spots, the reduction of acne scarring, and removal of fine facial hair.
Skin care products and treatments also perform better following Dermaplaning treatments as the skin is penetrated more easily.
Dermaplaning also works particularly well with other facial treatments such as light therapy and skin peels, to give clients beautiful, manageable facial skin.
What is Peel2Glow?
Each kit contains two ampoules: the first is a peel, the second a solution to moisturise and protect the skin.
The Peel ampoule contains glycolic acid and mandelic acid to remove impurities and dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. The Peel helps to refresh and soften the skin and prepare it for step two of the treatment: the Glow ampoule.
The Glow ampoule is a skin bloom solution which contains propylene glycol, glycerine and Vitamins A, C and E to moisturise and protect the skin.
I combine the Peel2Glow with my Dermaplane treatment, which has zero downtime and leaves the skin feeling wonderfully healthy, refreshed and glowing!

Frequently Asked Questions
How Often is Dermaplaning Performed?
Dermaplaning is usually performed every three to four weeks. It is good to have the skin complete its normal rejuvenation cycle, which is thirty days, before going back and having the treatment done. The procedure generally will remove between two to three weeks of dead skin from the facial area.
People who suffer from acne or have excess oil should not have dermaplaning performed. The reason why you want to avoid this procedure is because if the hair is removed from the area, the oils may cause bacteria growth which could lead to acne breakouts.
What to Expect After the Procedure:
Sometimes after dermaplaning, the skin will end up peeling slightly. This normally only happens when there is not enough time in between treatments to let the hair’s growth cycle be completed. This is why it is important to leave enough time between visits to get the best results.
There is no need to worry about the hair on your face getting any darker. Since dermaplaning only targets the vellus hair (peachfuzz) the hair will grow back the same size and color. It is physiologically impossible for the hair to grow back thicker and dark, so no need to panic and worry.
Is the treatment painful?
The treatment is completely pain-free and no downtime is required.
Never do this procedure at home. Leave it to the professionals to ensure a safe and effective treatment. If you are interested in scheduling an appointment or just learning more about dermaplaning or any of our other treatments, please call today!
