Dermaplaning 

​

Dermaplaning is “The controlled scraping of the skin using a sterile, surgical blade held at a 45 degree angle for the removal of keratinized cells on the outer corneum and the fine vellous hair”. To the average person it’s a highly effective physical exfoliation to gently “shave” the outer layer of dead skin. The secondary bonus of this treatment is that it also removes the fine vellous “fluffy” hair. The hair does not grow back thicker or darker, it grows back (slowly) just as it was.

It is physiologically impossible for dermaplaning to alter the type of hair growth on your face. The type of clients having this done are looking for skin rejuvenation, looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars or having more advanced treatments carried out after. Because of the removal of dead skin and hair, the skin will completely absorb any skincare you apply to it making treatments more effective and work harder in the skin to increase results
