Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliating treatment that uses a sterile surgical blade to gently remove the outer layer of dead skin cells and fine facial hair (vellus hair, often called "peach fuzz"). The result is immediately smoother, brighter-looking skin and a flawless canvas for skincare and makeup.

At Platinum Cosmetic Skin Clinic, dermaplaning can be booked as a standalone treatment or combined with a hydration mask and LED light therapy for a more complete pampering session.

Dermaplaning is also a common element within our Clinical Facials — if you're after a more comprehensive treatment, see our Clinical Facials page.

What People Come In For

You want immediately smoother, more refined-looking skin — whether before an event, photoshoot, special occasion, or as part of regular skincare maintenance.

Common reasons clients book dermaplaning:

  • Smoother skin texture and the appearance of a refined surface
  • Removal of fine facial hair ("peach fuzz")
  • Improved makeup application
  • A maintenance treatment between deeper skin treatments
  • Quick refresh before an event or wedding

How It Works

A trained therapist uses a sterile surgical blade held at a precise angle to gently exfoliate the surface of the skin. The blade lifts away dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, supporting cell turnover and revealing smoother-looking skin underneath. The treatment is painless and there is no downtime — clients typically return to normal activities immediately.

When combined with a hydration mask and LED light therapy, the treatment becomes a more complete session — the freshly exfoliated skin absorbs the mask's active ingredients more effectively, and the LED supports overall skin recovery.
