BELIEVE IN A FRESH START.
For fresh, clear and fuzz-free skin
Dermaplaning
Do away with grainy, dead skin build up and skin dulling peach fuzz to uncover a brighter, more luminous skin with our professional Dermaplaning treatment. A non-invasive but intensive exfoliation treatment that will instantly improve uneven skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles as well as remove skin-dulling vellus hair – giving you baby soft skin with a super smooth base for foundation.
WHAT IS DERMAPLANING?
Dermaplaning involves the use of a medical-grade surgical blade that is gently glided along the surface of the skin to remove the surface layer of dead skin build-up, debris and vellus hair.
As it is a mechanical process that does not rely on the use of abrasives or chemical peeling, Dermaplaning is suitable for all skin types and tones, able to give non-invasive, pain-free results with absolutely no downtime redness or post treatment recovery needed.
Your skin will instantly look brighter and smoother, making Dermaplaning the perfect pre-event treatment.
IS DERMAPLANING THE SAME AS SHAVING?
Although similar to shaving, a professional Dermaplaning treatment will not cause your facial hair to grow back prickly, thicker or darker. Along with a specially designed tool, there are a couple of major differences that make Dermaplaning an effective, skin-safe procedure.
Our specially trained team of Dermal Therapists will work at the precise angle, speed and pressure required to effectively remove the hair, debris and build-up without any risk of nicking or cutting the skin.
And, because Dermaplaning works on Vellus hair (the fine, wispy, peach-fuzz hair that grows over much of the face), there is no need to fear the procedure causing the hair to become thicker or darker.
ARE THERE ANY OTHER BENEFITS TO DERMAPLANING OTHER THAN SMOOTHER, BRIGHTER SKIN?
Yes! Besides the immediately smoothing and brightening effects of Dermaplanning, the treatment also assists in helping to keep your skin cleaner by removing the hair that can trap dirt, oil and debris within the pores. With less opportunity for blockages to develop within your pores, there is less opportunity for blackheads and breakouts to develop.
A clean, exfoliated and hair free skin also gives your skin the ability to better absorb skincare ingredients. Meaning, active cosmeceuticals can dive deep into your skin and get to work at a cellular level where they are most effective.

WILL I SEE RESULTS IMMEDIATELY?
You don’t need to plan any downtime to recover from a Dermaplaning treatment. Although some may experience some slight redness or feel some very mild sensitivity immediately after the procedure, this is temporarily and mainly due to your fresh new skin being exposed.
You’ll notice that your skin looks brighter and smoother immediately after the Dermaplaning treatment, with further improvement progressively developing the few days following your procedure.
Straight away, you will notice your make-up will go on smoothly and effortlessly… although your skin will look so clean and fresh, you may even feel comfortable wearing less foundation or none at all.
PRE TREATMENT ADVICE
Start by booking a consultation with a professional Skin Therapist, to determine the type of treatment appropriate for your skin type.
- No skin exfoliation 3-5 days prior to treatment
- No direct sun exposure for 5-7 days prior to treatment
- Reschedule your appointment if you have open wounds or acne lesions.
POST TREATMENT ADVICE
After your treatment, your skin may have a tight feeling, and you may experience some redness or a little flaking.
These are all signs the treatment has been effective.
- Avoid swimming or exercise for 24 hours.
- Avoid direct sun exposure for 48 hours (We recommend using a high quality SPF product to protect your skin from the sun at all times).
Follow your recommended skin care regime as this will ensure the results of your treatment last as long as possible.
