Smoother, Brighter-Looking Skin

Dermaplaning is a gentle exfoliating treatment that removes dead skin cells and fine facial hair, often known as peach fuzz, from the surface of the skin.

Using a sterile blade, your practitioner carefully exfoliates the skin to reveal a smoother, fresher-looking complexion. The treatment can leave your skin feeling soft and looking instantly brighter, with little to no downtime.

At Modbury Dental Practice, dermaplaning is part of our facial aesthetics and skin treatment offering, helping you achieve naturally fresh and healthy-looking skin.

What is dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliating treatment that gently removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells and fine facial hair.
The treatment uses a sterile blade held at a controlled angle against the skin. This allows the practitioner to carefully exfoliate the surface without affecting the deeper layers of the skin.


As well as creating a smoother complexion, dermaplaning can provide a great base for makeup and help skincare products apply more evenly.

What happens during a dermaplaning treatment?

Before your treatment, your skin will be cleansed and prepared.

Your practitioner will then use a sterile blade to gently exfoliate the surface of your skin, working carefully across the treatment area.

The treatment is controlled and precise and is generally very comfortable.

A dermaplaning appointment takes approximately 30 minutes, making it a convenient treatment if you’re looking for a quick skin refresh.

Following treatment, your skin may appear slightly pink or feel a little more sensitive than usual. This should settle quickly.

Is dermaplaning suitable for me?

Dermaplaning can be suitable for many skin types and is particularly popular for people looking to improve the appearance of dull or uneven skin. However, it isn’t suitable for everyone.

Your practitioner will assess your skin and discuss your concerns before treatment. If you have active acne, significant skin irritation, an infection or another condition affecting the treatment area, dermaplaning may not be recommended.


If you’re unsure whether dermaplaning is right for you, our team can discuss your options during your consultation.

Does dermaplaning make facial hair grow back thicker?

No. 

 

Dermaplaning does not make facial hair grow back thicker, darker or faster.


The treatment simply removes fine facial hair at the surface of the skin. When the hair grows back, it may initially feel slightly different because it has been cut rather than naturally tapered, but dermaplaning does not change the hair follicle or its rate of growth.

Is dermaplaning painful?

Dermaplaning is generally a comfortable treatment.
You may feel the blade gently moving across your skin, but there should not be significant discomfort. Your practitioner will make sure you are comfortable throughout the treatment.

How long does dermaplaning take?

A dermaplaning treatment takes approximately 30 minutes.

Because there is generally little to no downtime, it can be a convenient option for those looking for a quick skin treatment.

Dermaplaning before a special occasion

 

 

Dermaplaning is a popular choice before weddings, parties, holidays and other special occasions.

By removing surface dead skin cells and fine facial hair, the treatment can leave your complexion looking smoother and more radiant, while providing a more even surface for makeup application.
If you’re considering dermaplaning before an event, we recommend allowing enough time for your skin to settle following treatment.

Dermaplaning aftercare

Your practitioner will provide you with personalised aftercare advice following your treatment.

Protecting your skin from the sun is particularly important following exfoliating treatments.

In general, you should:

  • Avoid excessive heat immediately following treatment
  • Avoid rubbing or picking the treated area
  • Avoid harsh or highly active skincare products until advised
  • Keep your skin moisturised
  • Use SPF 30–50 every day
  • Follow any additional aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner
