If you’re looking for smoother, brighter-looking skin, a dermaplaning facial in Brighton could be worth considering. This popular beauty treatment gently removes the top layer of dead skin cells and fine facial hair, leaving the skin feeling soft, fresh and refreshed.
At The Lanes Health and Beauty, dermaplaning is a popular choice for clients who want a simple treatment with visible results and no lengthy recovery time.
What is dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive facial treatment performed using a sterile, specialist blade. The treatment gently exfoliates the surface of the skin while removing fine, soft facial hair, sometimes referred to as peach fuzz.
Unlike shaving, professional dermaplaning is carried out with a controlled technique designed to improve the skin’s surface without irritating it unnecessarily.
What are the benefits?
A dermaplaning facial may help to:
- Remove dead skin cells
- Create a smoother skin texture
- Improve the appearance of dull-looking skin
- Help skincare products absorb more effectively
- Provide a smoother base for makeup
- Leave the skin looking brighter and more radiant
Many clients enjoy the immediate feeling of smoothness after treatment. Results can vary depending on your skin type, skincare routine and lifestyle.
Is dermaplaning painful?
For most people, dermaplaning is a comfortable treatment. You may feel a gentle scraping sensation, but it should not be painful. Your skin may look slightly pink immediately afterwards, although this usually settles quickly.
A consultation before treatment is important, particularly if you have sensitive skin, active breakouts or an existing skin condition.
Is dermaplaning suitable for everyone?
Dermaplaning is suitable for many skin types, but it may not be recommended if you have active acne, open skin, severe sensitivity or certain skin conditions. A qualified therapist can assess your skin and advise whether the treatment is appropriate for you.
It is also important to avoid picking or exfoliating your skin immediately before treatment.
How long do the results last?
The results of dermaplaning are temporary. As the skin naturally renews and fine facial hair grows back, you may wish to repeat the treatment as recommended by your therapist. Your therapist can suggest a suitable treatment schedule based on your individual needs.
Aftercare advice
After your dermaplaning facial, your skin may be more sensitive to the sun. It is important to:
- Apply SPF daily
- Avoid harsh exfoliants for a short period
- Use gentle skincare products
- Avoid excessive heat immediately after treatment
- Follow your therapist’s personalised aftercare advice
So, is dermaplaning in Brighton worth it?
