Dermaplaning is a type of facial for which we use a scalpel  to remove all dead surface skin. It removes the superficial layer of dead skin  and whilst doing so, it removes all of your fine vellus hair (the peach fuzz). The main benefits of dermaplaning is the dead skin removal, the scondary outcome is the smooth streamlined face without any hair, and no ! The answer is NO - YOUR HAIR WILL NOT GROW BACK THICKER OR STUBBLY.  The reason for this is because, peach fuzz hair is not attached to any pituitry gland (this is the gland where normal, thicker head or pubic hair grows from) the pituitry gland gives hair its strength and colour. Velous hair has neither strength nor colour because its not growing from a hair/pituitry gland.  No magician in the land could make this happen, if there was one the would be worth an absolute fortune and we would have no bald people in the world. The onlt reason a hair would ever start to grow is if its going to grow there to start with - through hormonal changes. Lets face it we are all gonna get a whisker or 2 at some point. 

The removal of dead skin and surface hair then increases the absorption of creams and products and allows makeup to be applied flawlessly. It is suitable for all skin types although not recommended for those with active acne or coldsores. ( we do offer separate treatments for that) Unlike most advanced facials, dermaplaning is suitable while pregnant or nursing as there is no risk of chemicals being absorbed into the blood stream. Overall the treament itself takes around 30 minutes and there is zero downtime but you are recommended to wear SPF 30 for a few days afterwards.

£40-45 per treatment.

The Dermaroller now leads the way in skin rejuvenation. Rolling the skin with tiny needles will produce a very mild degree of trauma. This trauma causes the skin to heal itself, releasing new collagen and epidermal growth factors in abundance. Hundreds or tiny punctures are created using the roller device, these will close in seconds following treatment. Numbing cream is applied 20 minutes prior to the treatment. It should be relatively painless and will leave a feeling of mild sunburn for up to 12 hours.
