Derma-planing is a favourite in the entertainment industry.
Derma-planing is a favourite in the entertainment industry, specifically among models and actresses. It eliminates that annoying peach fuzz (known as vellus hair) that cakes up in makeup and can be enhanced by harsh production lighting and high-definition cameras.
This procedure is a stable favourite for a lot of our clients. Why? Because it is a very low key, non-intrusive and effective treatment with minimal recovery and “down” time.

HOW DOES DERMA-PLANING WORK?
Derma-planing is a method of exfoliation that consists of using a scalpel to gently scrape off the top layer of dulling dead skin cells in order to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion. Derma-planing removes all the dead skin cells and also the facial hair, leaving the surface very smooth. Derma-planing also allows for greater penetration of skincare products and creates a flawless canvas for makeup to glide on smoothly.
In fact, cosmetic dermatologists often use derma-planing to help prepare skin for more intrusive procedures such as laser treatments and chemical peels.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. This is a complete myth, you wont grow a beard after a dermaplaning facial, only because the surgical blade cuts off the ends of the vellus hairs. Nothing happens to the follicle itself, where it could affect your growth. However, keep in mind that this facial isn’t a hair reduction treatment, the hair will grow back eventually, just as they were before you had the treatment.
Dermaplaning, which we could also just call, “shaving your face,” because this treatment involves gently pulling a blade along your skin. But! Dermaplaning, unlike traditional shaving, uses a smaller blade to slough off dead skin cells in addition to removing wispy facial hair, so skin is more even in tone and texture
Immediately
Most patients should dermaplane about once a month for ideal results. Since the body naturally replaces skin cells each month, this ensures the old cells are removed and new, healthy skin cells are visible. In some cases, more or less frequent visits may be recommended based on the patient’s specific needs.
Dermaplaning can be done on the cheeks, forehead, nose and chin to improve tone and texture.
