When explaining hair removal options, I often get asked whether Dermaplaning or permanent Hair Reduction is better? These treatments are both good options but work in different ways and deliver different results.

Dermaplaning's first job is to the exfoliate the skin. This is done by using a dermatological scalpel on the skin. The scalpel picks up the dead skin cells away from the healthy skin cells. What does Dermaplaning feel like? I think that the best descriptions are a credit card is sliding back and forth on the skin or a cat's tongue is licking your face. While exfoliating is number one, as a by product mostly of the peach fuzz hair on the face is also removed in the process. Dermaplaning is usually done monthly on an ongoing basis. It’s a better option than waxing and gentler on the skin.

Want an instant glow? Dermaplane. Would you like better makeup application? Dermaplane. Would you like your products to do their job 100%? Dermaplane.

Laser or SHR first job is to remove unwanted hair. There are 2 different types of laser, IPL which is not pain free and feels a bit like an elastic band pinging on your skin, and SHR which stands for super hair removal, this is pain free and fast and effective. Both types of permanent hair removal will require 6-10 sessions, thereafter a yearly top up session is all that is required. 

Want to remove hair permanently, SHR. Want smoother skin for a longer period of SHR. Would you like facial hair to grow in a little finer and softer? SHR.

So let's review. The Dermaplaning service exfoliates first and removes hair second. It’s ongoing, usually monthly. Having SHR treatment removes hair permanently. The main benefits of Dermaplaning are to give you an instant glow, give you better makeup application, and better product penetration. The main benefits of SHR are to permanently remove unwanted hair and have a smoother skin.

I usually offer to include the Dermaplane service, when your getting SHR done on the facial area, so you can get the best of both worlds!
