If you want smoother, brighter skin with zero downtime, dermaplaning is one of the simplest and most satisfying treatments there is. Here's how it works and what to expect, from our nurse-led clinic near Eccleshall.
What Is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a precise, physical exfoliation. Using a sterile surgical blade held at an angle, we gently remove the layer of dead skin cells and the fine, downy "peach fuzz" (vellus hair) from the surface of the skin. It's completely non-invasive and takes just a few minutes.
The Benefits
- Instantly smoother, softer, brighter-looking skin
- A radiant glow, with no dulling layer of dead cells or fuzz
- Make-up sits and glides on beautifully afterwards
- Skincare absorbs better, so your products work harder
Will the Hair Grow Back Thicker?
This is the most common worry — and the answer is no. Dermaplaning removes soft vellus hair, which grows back exactly as it was. It does not change the colour, thickness or rate of hair growth. That's a myth worth putting to rest.
What to Expect
Dermaplaning is painless and relaxing — most people describe it as a light scratching feeling. There's no redness or downtime, so it's perfect before an event or as a regular skin refresh. You'll see the results immediately.
How Often Should You Have It?
Because it works on the skin's surface, dermaplaning is usually repeated every three to four weeks, in line with your skin's natural renewal cycle. It also pairs well with other skin treatments.
