Dermaplaning in Southport

Dermaplaning is a gentle physical exfoliation. We hold the skin taut and pass a sterile single-use blade across it at an angle, lifting off dead cells and the fine vellus hair often called peach fuzz. It is quick, comfortable and leaves skin noticeably smoother the same day. It sits alongside the rest of our facials in Southport.

Natural Results You'll Love

Smoother straight away
Removing the dull surface layer leaves skin softer to the touch, and makeup sits far more evenly on top of it.
Fine facial hair comes away with the dead skin. It grows back exactly as it was, at the same colour and texture.
With the surface layer gone, serums and moisturisers absorb better for the couple of weeks that follow.

Why dermaplaning works

Your skin sheds cells constantly, and that shedding slows down as you get older, so dead cells sit on the surface and make skin look flat and feel rough. Dermaplaning removes that layer in one pass, along with the fine hair that traps dust and makeup and scatters light. There is no acid and no heat involved, which is why it suits people who find peels or gritty scrubs too much. It works on the surface only, so it does not affect the hair follicle and nothing grows back darker or coarser.

Treatment time:

30 to 45 minutes

Downtime:

None. Skin can feel slightly sensitive and look a little pink for a few hours.

What to Expect After Your Treatment

Keep the routine simple for 24 hours, so no strong acids, retinoids or scrubs, and skip saunas, sunbeds and hot yoga. Use SPF every morning, as freshly exfoliated skin burns more easily. Full guidance is on our aftercare page.

When Will I See Results?

Immediately. Skin feels smoother as soon as we finish.

How Long Can I Enjoy My Results?

Around three to four weeks, until the surface layer builds up again

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

Single treatment, repeated every four weeks if you like the effect

Is This Right For Me?

Suitable for most adults over 18, and often a good option in pregnancy because nothing is absorbed into the skin. We avoid it over active or inflamed acne, cold sores, raised moles and broken skin. Tell us at consultation if you use prescription skin medication, as we may ask you to speak to your prescriber first. We treat only over-18s.

I can’t recommend Rachel highly enough. This was my very first appointment with Rachel and it certainly won’t be my last, she made me feel completely comfortable and at ease. She is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and takes the time to really listen and understand what you want to achieve. Rachel has a very natural approach and her attention to detail is amazing. I feel confident knowing I’m in such skilled hands, and the results have been exactly what I hoped for. Thank you, Rachel, for your care, expertise, and for always making the whole experience so positive. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for a trusted and talented practitioner.

I recently had polynucleotide under-eye injections with Rachel, and I couldn’t be more pleased with both the experience and the results so far. From the moment I arrived, Rachel was incredibly welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the treatment thoroughly and made me feel completely comfortable and reassured throughout the entire process. The treatment itself was surprisingly pain-free, with minimal discomfort and very little downtime afterwards. I’ve already noticed a significant improvement in the appearance of my under-eye area - it looks brighter, more refreshed, and the fine lines have softened noticeably. As someone who works night shifts in the NHS, tired-looking eyes have always been a concern for me, so seeing such positive results already has been amazing. I’m excited to complete the rest of my treatment course and see the full benefits. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone considering polynucleotide treatments. Her professionalism, expertise, and friendly approach make the whole experience exceptional ❤️

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

No. The blade cuts hair at the surface and does not touch the follicle, so it returns at the same colour and thickness. It can feel blunt for a day or two as it grows.
Most people find it painless and describe a light scraping feeling. There is no heat, no stinging and no numbing needed.
Yes. There is no acid, heat or light involved, so it does not carry the pigment risk that some resurfacing treatments do. We still check your skin first.
You can, but skin looks better if you leave it bare for the rest of the day. Makeup applies beautifully from the next morning onwards.
The blade, the angle and the technique are different, and the exfoliating effect is far greater. It also comes as part of a full facial rather than on its own.
It pairs well with LED light therapy in the same appointment. We space it away from peels and would plan that order with you at consultation.
