At LA Perfection we have combined this non-invasive exfoliation treatment with our advanced electrical and laser treatments to offer a unique combination of amazing facials to suite all of your skin needs.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
DOES DERMAPLANING HURT?
The sensation is very similar to shaving so most people will feel no pain at all and find the treatment quite relaxing. if your skin is particularly sensitive then you may feel a slight discomfort but nothing painful.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE DERMAPLANING?
Dermaplaning can be performed every 3-4 weeks. The process removes 3-4 weeks worth of dead skin cells so we should allow this time for the skin to repair before performing the treatment again.
WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED WITH DERMAPLANING?
Dermaplaning is performed on the face only. we cannot treat the eyelids, neck or chest.
DOES HAIR GROW BACK THICKER AFTER DERMAPLANING?
No, this is physically impossible. The soft vellous hair will grow back slowly, usually within 4 weeks.
IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME AFTER DERMAPLANING?
There is no downtime at all, your skin will look instantly glowing following a treatment unless it is combined with any of our more invasive treatments.
WHO CANNOT HAVE DERMAPLANING?
We cannot treat anyone with active acne outbreaks until lesions have healed. We cannot treat anyone with bleeding disorders, uncontrolled diabetes or anyone undergoing cancer treatment. If you have a specific skin disorder please ask for advice before booking a treatment.
