If you’ve ever wondered how to achieve that smooth, radiant, and flawless “glass skin” look, the answer may be dermaplaning. This popular treatment has taken the beauty world by storm — and for good reason. At Skinstitute in Sandton, dermaplaning is one of our go-to treatments for instantly refreshed, silky-smooth skin.
What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a professional exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile, medical-grade blade to gently remove dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (commonly known as “peach fuzz”) from the surface of the skin. The result? A brighter, smoother complexion that allows your skincare products to penetrate more effectively and your makeup to glide on flawlessly.
The Benefits of Dermaplaning
Instant Radiance: Removes dull surface cells to reveal fresh, glowing skin.
Smoother Texture: Creates a silky-soft finish that feels incredible to the touch.
Better Product Absorption: Prepares your skin to absorb serums and active ingredients more effectively.
Flawless Makeup Application: Foundation and powders sit evenly without clinging to dry patches or peach fuzz.
Non-Invasive and Gentle: Suitable for most skin types with no downtime required.
