Dermaplaning in Sheffield

Dermaplaning is a gentle, manual exfoliation. Your therapist holds your skin taut and uses a sterile, single-use blade at a careful angle to skim away the very top layer of dull, dead skin cells, along with the fine 'peach fuzz' hair across your face. It doesn't hurt – it feels like a light, stroking motion – and the skin underneath looks smoother, brighter and more even straight away.

Because that layer of dead skin and fluff is gone, your skincare sinks in better and your make-up sits more smoothly. It's a lovely treatment before a special occasion, or as a regular boost for dull skin.

1. Welcome and skin check. We'll look at your skin and make sure dermaplaning is right for you.
2. Cleanse. A thorough cleanse to remove make-up and oil, then the skin is dried completely.
3. Dermaplane. Gentle, precise strokes across the face, avoiding the eyes, lips and any sensitive areas.
4. Soothe. A calming mask and a relaxing facial massage.
5. Hydrate and protect. Serum, moisturiser and SPF advice for the days ahead.

Avoid retinoids, acids and facial waxing for a few days before, and stay out of the sun. Afterwards, your skin may be slightly pink for a short while. Keep it simple for 24 hours – gentle cleanser, moisturiser and no heavy make-up – and wear a high SPF every day for at least a week, as your fresh skin will be more sensitive to the sun.

Pair dermaplaning with a Hydrate & Nourish facial for extra moisture, or add a lash tint for a fresh, make-up-free face.
