What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a highly effective, non-invasive exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile surgical blade to gently remove the top layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) from your face. This process not only unveils a smoother and brighter complexion but also enhances the absorption of skincare products and allows makeup to apply more flawlessly. As we age, our skin’s natural exfoliation process slows down, leading to a buildup of dead skin cells that can make the skin appear dull and uneven. Dermaplaning aids in the rejuvenation of your skin, giving you a more youthful and radiant appearance. If you’re concerned about your skin’s texture, tone, or overall aesthetic and desire a quick, painless solution, our dermaplaning treatment may be the perfect choice. Book a consultation today, and our experts will assess your skin concerns and recommend a bespoke dermaplaning treatment plan to provide the results you want.
Which Concerns Does Dermaplaning Treat?
Dermaplaning, also known as epidermal leveling or blading, is suitable for both men and women. It can:
- Exfoliate dead skin cells to reveal a brighter complexion
- Remove fine facial hair (peach fuzz) for smoother skin
- Improve skin texture and tone
- Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Enhance product absorption for better skincare results
- Minimize mild acne scarring and hyperpigmentation
- Provide a more youthful, radiant glow
Dermaplaning is a popular skin rejuvenation treatment used to improve the appearance of many parts of the face that are prone to dullness or uneven texture. Each individual’s skin is unique, so a consultation is always needed before proceeding with any form of dermaplaning treatment. All treatments are tailored to the individual, and personal experiences and results may vary. We recommend a one-to-one consultation with our Treatment Coordinators to discuss your treatment options.
What Can Dermaplaning Be Used For?
Face
Dermaplaning effectively removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair from the face, resulting in smoother, brighter skin. It’s particularly beneficial for areas where peach fuzz tends to accumulate, such as the cheeks, chin, and upper lip.
Forehead and Nose
By exfoliating the forehead and nose areas, dermaplaning helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and clogged pores, leading to a more even skin texture and tone.
Neck
The treatment can be extended to the neck area to address signs of aging, such as crepey skin and fine lines, promoting a smoother and more youthful appearance.
Enhancing Other Treatments
Dermaplaning can be combined with other facial treatments, such as chemical peels or facials, to enhance their effectiveness by allowing deeper penetration of active ingredients.
What Happens During Dermaplaning Treatment?
Dermaplaning treatment usually lasts approximately 30 – 45 minutes. One of Tribe’s highly experienced aestheticians will carefully cleanse and prepare your skin before using a sterile surgical blade to gently exfoliate the outermost layer of dead skin cells and fine hairs. The procedure is painless and does not require any form of anesthesia. Our medical teams are on hand to offer advice and support before, during, and after your treatment, putting your individual needs first.
At Tribe, the safety, care, and comfort of our patients are always our top priority. Our expertly trained medical team is carefully selected to ensure you receive the very best experience while in our care and achieve the best results. Only qualified professionals perform our dermaplaning treatments.
What to Expect After Dermaplaning?
You do not usually need any downtime following dermaplaning treatment. Results can be seen immediately, with your skin appearing smoother and more radiant. Your skin may be slightly more sensitive to sun exposure after the treatment, so it’s important to wear sunscreen and follow any aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner. Your Treatment Coordinator will discuss any individual post-treatment or recovery requirements with you if required.
