Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning reduces fine vellus hair, leaving your skin smooth and glowing.
how does Dermaplaning work?
Dermaplaning is a professional exfoliation treatment now available at Australian Laser Clinics. This gentle, non-invasive procedure removes dead skin cells and fine facial hair, revealing a smoother, more radiant complexion. It helps improve product absorption, evens out skin tone, and leaves your skin feeling instantly refreshed and renewed.
Using a specially designed medical-grade dermaplaning blade, Dermaplaning safely exfoliates the surface of the skin, removing the buildup of dull skin and fine vellus hair that can block skincare penetration. The treatment is completely pain-free, requires no downtime, and can be done in under 30 minutes perfect for clients with busy schedules.
Dermaplaning, also known as epidermal levelling, is ideal for treating rough or dry skin, fine lines, uneven texture, and clogged or enlarged pores. It also supports the prevention of milia and enhances the appearance and application of makeup. After treatment, skin feels soft, hydrated, and visibly smoother.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need Dermaplaning levelling?
Dermaplaning levelling treatments offer a number of advantages, including:
• Effectively removes top layers of dead skin cells
• Leaves skin smooth and glowing
• Removes fine downy/vellus hair
• Skin is well primed for makeup application
Are there any side effects?
No. There is no downtime and minimal to no redness after an Dermaplaning treatment, unlike waxing.
Will there be more hair growth post treatment?
No. The dermaplaning treatment only removes the surface of the hair. The only time you can stimulate hair growth is if the blood supply to the follicle is affected, such as with waxing. Hair is expected to grow back blunt-ended and will feel coarse initially. The new hair will not appear darker or coarser. Note: Fine vellus hair is not hormonal hair, so its removal will not stimulate thicker hair.
Is it safe for darker skin tones?
Yes, Dermaplaning can be performed safely on all skin tones.
Does it help problematic skin conditions?
The epidermal levelling exfoliation assists with removing dead skin cell build-up that can be clogging and congesting pores. It is not suitable for inflamed breakouts.
Will it help with reducing my wrinkles?
As we age and with sun exposure, the skin’s natural exfoliation and renewal process slows, leading to a build-up of dead skin cells that can cause uneven texture, superficial fine lines, and a dull appearance. Dermaplaning delivers instantly smoother, more refined, and younger-looking skin by removing this build-up and allowing fresh, healthy skin cells to surface. While deep wrinkles or dynamic lines may be softened to some extent, the most noticeable improvement is in skin smoothness and clarity.
For optimal results, it is strongly recommended to follow a treatment programme that combines Dermaplaning with other anti-aging treatments offered at our clinics.
Does it remove freckles?
Dermaplaning is effective in reducing the appearance of superficial hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. There are several types of pigmentation, some of which can be more challenging to treat. Your skin therapist will advise you on the results you can expect based on your individual skin concerns.
Sun protection is essential when treating skin discolouration. The use of a broad-spectrum sunscreen is required both before and after treatment, along with a pigment-inhibiting product to help prevent future hyperpigmentation and maintain results.
