What is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a medical-grade exfoliation and facial hair removal treatment performed using a sterile surgical scalpel. The skilled hand of a highly trained medical aesthetician uses the scalpel to gently shave away fine vellus facial hairs while at the same time performing a deep exfoliation of the stratum corneum, lifting away dead skin buildup.

This quick and painless procedure also improves the absorption of products, heightening their efficacy and creates the perfect canvas for makeup application.

How Dermaplaning Works

Dermaplaning is a favourite among actresses, models, and brides because of how flawless and smooth the skin appears for photographs, as well as for any patients looking for the most gentle facial hair removal technique available.

It targets the hairs so fine or so light in colour that traditional waxing or laser hair removal cannot treat them. No downtime, no irritation, and no pulling of the skin with this method, making it great for all skin types, even the most sensitive. It can be performed on its own or in addition to other skincare procedures.

What to Expect

Treatment

Treatment is quick, painless, and requires no numbing. Most sessions are completed in under 30 minutes. There is no redness, irritation, or downtime afterward and you can return to your normal routine immediately.

Regrowth

The peach fuzz on your face is vellus hair, which differs from the terminal hairs on other areas of the body that grow thick, long, and dark. When shaved off, vellus hairs will not regrow darker, thicker, or longer

Results

The result is baby soft and smooth skin, a wonderful canvas for skincare and makeup application. Results last about 4 weeks and many patients combine it with their monthly facials for a deeper exfoliation.
