DERMAPLANING
​
As we age, our cell turnover decreases and this affects our skin texture and tone, Dermaplaning gently buffs the top layer of dead skin cells away helps to reveal a brighter and smoother complexion. Taking away the dead skin cells that make complexions look dull and contribute to clogged pores and spots. Dermaplaning clears the way so skin products and serums can get down into the skin where they need to be rather than sitting on the skin's surface. It removes peach fuzz / vellus hair and creates clear channels into the skin as well as a soft, smooth surface for makeup to glide on flawlessly.
HOW DOES
IT WORK?
Dermaplaning uses a surgical blade to perform a deep exfoliation. The edge of the scalpel is used at a 45-degree angle to scrape the build-up of dirt and oils in and around the skin and vellus hair.
The vellus hair is completely removed during the process leaving skin ultra-smooth and creating the perfect base for make-up application.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT?
After eye makeup is removed the skin will be double-cleansed to create a clear canvas for treatment. The dermaplaning procedure is methodically carried out working the whole face one area at a time. After the dermaplaning is complete we will apply a serum or moisturiser depending on skin type and a lip and eye product to finish.
The treatment is completely pain-free and no downtime is required.
ARE THERE ANY
SIDE EFFECTS?
Dermaplaning is a very safe procedure. Skin is stretched during the procedure and the blade is always held at a 45-degree angle to reduce the risk of nicking the skin with the blade.
Skin may be a little pink immediately after treatment due to being stretched but this normally subsides within an hour or so.
Peach fuzz / vellus hairs do not come back thicker and stronger. It will grow back at exactly the same rate, thickness and texture as before
WHAT RESULTS
WILL I SEE?
Dermaplaning is the ultimate glow treatment, skin is instantly ultra-smooth, glowing and refreshed.
Dermaplaning is three times as effective as microdermabrasion alone and creates the perfect base for makeup application.
