This therapy treatment is tailored to your skin, gently removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells from the epidermis. Both Crystal and Diamond-head treatments are available.
Our signature cleansing and exfoliation is followed by an antioxidant infusion for brightening and a deeper delivery of peel. Followed by a Crystal and Diamond dermabrasion and extractions mask. The treatment also includes a paraffin hand treatment and facial and scalp massage.
Skin needling is used on the face and neck, using a series of microscopic needles which cause multiple, tiny micro-punctures in the dermis. These micro-punctures stimulate growth in the skin and the production of collagen and elastin.
What is dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is designed to remove dead or damaged skin cells from the upper layer of the epidermis and fine, vellus hair from your face. It is performed with a surgical grade, exfoliating blade by a professional dermal therapist.
What can it help with?
It can help reduce the appearance of fine wrinkles. After dermaplaning, your skin is likely to be more receptive to treatment creams such as moisturisers or serums and dermaplaning has also been shown to help acceleration of skin cell production.
What happens during a dermaplaning session?
After examining your skin and talking to you about any concerns, as well as your medical history relevant to your skin (for example, a history of cold sores or eczema), our dermal therapist will use a sterile blade at a 45-degree angle to slowly remove debris and smooth out your skin’s surface. S
How long does the treatment take?
Including the skin assessment, the procedure and follow-up advice, around 45 minutes to one hour.
Is it safe?
Dermaplaning has little risk of side effects when performed by a professional skin dermal therapist in a clinical setting.
Is there downtime?
No, but some people may find their skin is a little pink for two or three days. Your skin may also break out a bit if it has been very congested. Generally, it takes a couple of days to see the full result of the treatment.
How long do results last?
Results will vary for each client, however typically results will last for three to four weeks.
Do I need to use any special products afterwards, or take any precautions?
It is advised that you not exfoliate for a few days or apply Vitamin A. You also need to be careful about sun exposure. On fresh skin, harsh UV rays can cause pigmentation or blotches. Wearing a chemical-free, SPF30+ sunblock (we recommend the amazing SkinCeuticals Ultimate UV Defense SPF30+ or SPF50+) is essential to helping your skin look and feel its best. Don’t go out without one, especially in the Australian summer, although be aware that UV can be extreme all year round so it’s good to apply a sunblock under your moisturiser.
