Dermaplaning is the ultimate exfoliation facial. It uses a surgical blade to remove the build-up of dry skin, dirt and oils in and around the skin. It also removes the fine facial hair (and no it doesn’t grow back thicker!) which leaves the skin ultra-smooth making dermaplaning ideal for perfect make-up application before an event. It may sound scary but you can be assured that the treatment is completely safe and pain-free with no downtime required.
Our Expertise
Our practitioners are highly skilled and experienced in this procedure and will modify the treatment for your skin type. Once the skin has been deeply exfoliated with dermaplaning, any active ingredient applied will have much better absorption and so we make the most of this by combining dermaplaning with a post treatment serum or mask.
We also recommend dermaplaning to kick-start a new home product regime or to prepare the skin for treatments such as Skin Peels or our Pigmentation Programme.
