Dermaplaning
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a method of physical exfoliation, using a sterile, surgical scalpel to gently shave the skin's surface, removing the top layer of dead skin cells as well as the hair known as vellus hair (peach fuzz). This procedure leaves the skin even more silky smooth than other exfoliation techniques due to the hair removal. This can also be performed on the body to.

Who shouldnt get a Dermaplane Facial?
Dermaplane Facial is great for most skin types, but if you have deep cystic acne or very sensitive skin you may want to give this a miss. If you have acne, wait until breakouts are clear. For sensitive skin, cells will be removed, so skin will be more sensitive post treatment (i have treated someone with sensitive skin and they were fine, it just makes you more sensitive to the air and also the products you use may sting).This should only be performed by a professional.
Post Facial Aftercare
The most important thing to remember is no matter your skin type your skin will feel more sensitive than normal if this is your first time using this method of treatment. Your skin will be sensitive to the sun and other environmental factors. As this is a deeper form of exfoliation, it is my requirement to put factor 50spf sun cream on your skin before you leave from my service or unless on the body a moisturiser will be put on to soothe the treated area.
