Overview
An instantly flawless canvas
Dermaplaning is a safe, non-invasive exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile surgical scalpel to gently remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz) from the surface of the skin. The result is an instant improvement in skin smoothness, brightness, and texture.
Unlike other exfoliation methods, dermaplaning is suitable for almost all skin types, including sensitive skin, and requires no downtime. It is also an excellent treatment to combine with others, as removing the dead skin layer allows serums, peels, and other active treatments to penetrate more effectively.
At Radiant Health Clinic, dermaplaning is performed by trained practitioners using professional-grade techniques, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience with visible results from the very first session.

Please tell us at consultation
Dermaplaning isn’t suitable over active acne breakouts, rosacea flares, or open skin lesions, and isn’t recommended on sunburned skin. Hair will not grow back thicker or darker. This is a common misconception.

Common questions
Common questions
Will my hair grow back thicker after dermaplaning?
No. This is a very common misconception. Vellus hair (peach fuzz) grows from a different follicle structure to terminal hair and will grow back at exactly the same texture and colour as before.
Is dermaplaning suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. Dermaplaning is one of the most skin-friendly exfoliation methods available because it uses no chemicals or abrasive particles. It is well tolerated by sensitive skin types.
Can dermaplaning be combined with other treatments?
Yes, and this is one of its biggest advantages. Dermaplaning the skin first allows peels, serums, and other active treatments to penetrate more deeply, significantly enhancing their results. It pairs especially well with chemical peels.
Is there any downtime?
None. You can return to normal activities immediately. We recommend applying SPF before any sun exposure.
How often should I have dermaplaning?
Monthly treatments are ideal, aligned with your skin's natural cell turnover cycle of approximately 4 weeks.
