ToggleAt Ardour, we call dermaplaning a top treatment that gives instant results. It’s a hit for those getting ready for big events or just wanting to glow.
A dermaplaning treatment uses a special blade to gently remove dead skin and fine hair. This is done by trained therapists at Ardour. It’s not something you should try at home.
During your session, you’ll feel a gentle scraping. Most find it very comfortable, even relaxing. There’s no pain, just the joy of seeing your skin freshen up.
Right after, you’ll see your skin looking smoother and more radiant. It’s like a veil has been lifted, revealing your natural glow.
Dermaplaning also helps your skincare work better. By removing dead skin and hair, your products can reach deeper into your skin. This means your skin gets more out of your skincare routine.
Makeup also benefits from professional dermaplaning. It glides on smoothly, covering evenly without looking cakey. You’ll need less makeup and it will look better. Many say it makes applying makeup effortless.
Some might worry about a blade near their face. But at Ardour, our team is experienced and safe. They’ve done many treatments without issue, making it safe for most skin types.
The whole treatment takes 30 to 45 minutes. You’ll leave with skin that’s incredibly smooth and bright. It’s the perfect start for any event or just to enjoy your best skin every day.
Special occasions make us want to look and feel our best. That’s why dermaplaning is a top choice for an event facial. At our Brighton and Moonee Ponds locations, many clients book this treatment for big moments.
They’re looking for smooth skin, a fresh look, and makeup that lasts all day. They want to feel and look amazing.
Dermaplaning is great for a facial before an event because it fixes several issues at once. It makes dull skin bright, smooths out texture, and removes facial hair that can mess with makeup.
Our clients get ready for many special occasions. Brides want to look stunning on their big day. Mothers of the bride and wedding guests also book to look their best.
It’s not just for weddings. Clients also book for birthdays, photoshoots, work presentations, dates, and reunions. They all want to show off their best self.
This glowing skin facial gives instant, natural-looking results. It’s not about looking different, but the best version of yourself.
| Client Occasion | Primary Skin Goal | Why Dermaplaning Helps |
|---|---|---|
| Wedding (bride or guest) | Flawless makeup application and photogenic glow | Creates smooth canvas, removes peach fuzz that catches light, enhances radiance |
| Professional photography | Even skin texture and natural luminosity | Reveals fresh layer of skin, reduces appearance of fine lines in photos |
| Milestone celebration or reunion | Refreshed, confident appearance | Delivers immediate brightness and smooth texture that lasts several days |
| Business presentation or interview | Polished, professional look | Provides subtle radiance and ensures makeup stays put under stage lighting |
We’re upfront about what dermaplaning does. It won’t stop ageing or replace deeper treatments. But it makes your skin look and feel amazing when you need it most.
The confidence boost is just as important as the physical results. Feeling ready and radiant boosts your confidence all day.
This treatment is part of a thoughtful skincare routine. We focus on real, visible improvements that make you feel polished and ready for any event.
Many people ask us about the differences between dermaplaning and traditional facials. They want to know which one is best for them. Both treatments give great results but in different ways.
Knowing how these treatments compare helps you choose the right one for your skin. We’ve made a simple comparison to help you decide.
| Treatment Aspect | Dermaplaning | Standard Facial |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Focus | Physical exfoliation and vellus hair removal for immediate smoothness and enhanced radiance | Deep cleansing, extractions, targeted serums, masks, and massage for nourishment and specific skin concerns |
| Treatment Duration | 30-45 minutes with immediate visible results | 60-90 minutes with gradual improvement over following days |
| Immediate Results | Ultra-smooth texture, instant glow, flawless makeup application, zero downtime | Deep hydration, relaxation, potential temporary redness that settles within 24-48 hours |
| Best Timing Before Events | 1-3 days before for peak smoothness and radiance | 5-7 days before to allow any redness from extractions to settle completely |
| Ideal For | Pre-event preparation, eliminating peach fuzz, creating smooth makeup base, quick visible transformation | Ongoing skin health, deep pore cleansing, addressing congestion or sensitivity, relaxation and pampering |
Dermaplaning is great for quick, visible smoothness and flawless makeup. It’s perfect for last-minute event prep because it doesn’t cause downtime or redness.
You’ll leave with smoother, brighter skin that looks amazing in photos. It removes dead skin cells and fine facial hair, giving you that ultra-smooth texture.
Standard facials are better for ongoing skin health and deeper treatment of specific issues. They’re great for addressing congestion, dehydration, or sensitivity.
These facials include cleansing, extractions, and customized masks. They target deeper issues and offer a relaxing, pampering experience.
We help our clients in Brighton and Moonee Ponds choose based on their needs. If you want ultra-smooth skin and no downtime, dermaplaning is perfect.
For deep cleansing, extractions, or treating specific skin issues, a traditional facial is better. The massage and mask provide a relaxing, spa-like experience.
Many of our clients use both treatments. They get regular facials for maintenance and dermaplaning before big events for guaranteed smoothness.
This approach gives you the best of both worlds. You get long-term skin health plus event-ready perfection when needed.
Wondering if dermaplaning is for you? The answer is yes, it’s great for many skin types and concerns. At Ardour, we see amazing results for clients looking for smoother, brighter skin.
Dermaplaning is perfect for dull, tired skin that needs a boost. It reveals the fresher skin underneath, making your skin look alive again.
Many choose dermaplaning for big events, wanting their skin to look amazing in photos. It gives an instant smooth look, ideal for weddings or professional photos.
It’s also great for those who struggle with makeup. Dermaplaning makes your skin smooth, so makeup looks flawless.
It’s popular among people in their 30s to 70s. As we age, our skin naturally slows down. Dermaplaning helps by removing dead cells and revealing younger skin.
Dermaplaning is best for normal, dry, combination, and mature skin types. It’s gentle and effective, without harsh chemicals.
Many women get it to deal with facial hair. It’s common, and we reassure you, you’re not alone.
| Client Profile | Primary Concern | Dermaplaning Benefit | Typical Age Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Event Preparation | Wanting flawless, photo-ready skin | Instant smoothing and brightening for special occasions | All ages |
| Dull, Tired Skin | Lacklustre complexion, rough texture | Reveals fresh, radiant skin underneath dead cell build-up | 30s-70s |
| Makeup Challenges | Foundation settling into lines, patchy application | Creates smooth canvas for seamless makeup blending | 25s-60s |
| Fine Facial Hair | Peach fuzz catching light, interfering with makeup | Removes vellus hair for refined, polished appearance | All ages |
| Mature Skin Concerns | Slowed cell turnover, visible texture changes | Gentle exfoliation revealing fresher, younger-looking skin | 50s-70s |
There’s no “perfect candidate” for dermaplaning. If you want smoother, more radiant skin, it might be for you.
Our experienced therapists at Ardour assess your skin during your consultation. We discuss your goals and concerns to ensure it’s right for you.
Dermaplaning is versatile. We tailor it to your unique skin, creating a personalised experience that meets your needs.
Whether for a special event or to feel smooth and glowing, dermaplaning offers an instant transformation. Our clients love it.
At Ardour, we always put your skin’s health first. We’re open about when dermaplaning might not be the best choice. This treatment is gentle but not for everyone.
We check your skin carefully before starting. We want to make sure it’s ready for dermaplaning.
Remember, these are temporary situations. Once your skin heals, dermaplaning will be ready for you.
The best results come from treating skin at the right time, not just any time.
Our consultation process is key. We ask about your recent treatments, skin concerns, medications, and sensitivities. If dermaplaning isn’t right, we offer alternatives.
Maybe a customised facial for hydration and radiance. Or we’ll tell you when to come back for dermaplaning.
We value honesty and your skin’s safety over any treatment. This careful approach is a strength of Ardour’s service, not a limitation. When we do dermaplaning, we ensure your safety and beautiful results.
Your skin’s long-term health is our priority. That’s the Ardour difference.
Trying a new treatment can be a bit uncertain. That’s why we’ve made every dermaplaning appointment at Ardour Brows & Lashes clear, comfy, and reassuring. From the moment you arrive at our Brighton or Moonee Ponds salon, you’ll feel a professional yet warm vibe. Your comfort is our top priority.
Your appointment starts with a detailed consultation. Your therapist will chat with you about your skin worries, what you hope to achieve, and any big events coming up.
We’ll also check if dermaplaning is right for your skin. This chat helps us make the treatment just right for you. You’ll feel sure about what’s next.
Next, we prepare your skin. Your therapist will gently clean your face to remove makeup, oil, and dirt.
This step is key—it makes the treatment safe and effective. A clean face lets the blade move smoothly and safely. This gives you the best results.
Then, it’s time for the treatment. Your therapist uses a sterile, single-use surgical blade to gently remove dead skin cells and fine hair. They work carefully across your face, making sure to cover every area.
Most people find the sensation quite comfortable. You might feel a gentle scraping or hear a soft scratching sound. This is normal. It’s just the blade working to reveal your fresh, radiant skin.
The whole treatment takes about 30 to 45 minutes. As your therapist works, you’ll see your skin get smoother and brighter right away.
After the treatment, we apply soothing, hydrating products to your skin. These products help keep your skin moist and glowing.
At Ardour Brows & Lashes, we take hygiene very seriously. We use new, sterile blades for every client, keep our rooms spotless, and follow strict sanitation rules. Your safety and comfort are our main concerns.
Dermaplaning at our salons is meant to be a calming, confidence-boosting experience. You’ll leave with smooth, glowing skin and know you’ve received top-notch care from therapists who get your beauty goals.
Many people worry that shaving facial hair makes it grow back thicker. This is a common concern we hear from those thinking about a dermaplaning facial. But, this worry is based on a myth, not science.
Dermaplaning removes vellus hair, the soft, fine hair on your face. This is different from terminal hair, the coarser, darker hair found on your scalp and body.
Knowing the difference between these hair types shows why dermaplaning won’t change your facial hair:
| Hair Type | Characteristics | Examples | Response to Dermaplaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vellus Hair | Fine, soft, light-colored, short | Facial peach fuzz, arms, stomach | Grows back unchanged |
| Terminal Hair | Thick, coarse, pigmented, long | Scalp, eyebrows, underarms, legs | Not affected by facial dermaplaning |
| Hair Follicle | Determines thickness, color, growth rate | Located beneath skin surface | Completely untouched during treatment |
Dermaplaning only cuts hair at the surface level. It doesn’t touch the hair follicle beneath your skin. This is what controls your hair’s thickness, colour, and growth rate. So, your hair grows back the same as before—fine, soft, and light-coloured.
Why does this myth keep going around? Cutting hair straight across can make it feel different at first. But, within days, it goes back to its normal softness.
At our Brighton and Moonee Ponds salons, clients have been getting dermaplaning facial treatments for years. Their facial hair stays the same—no thickening, no darkening, no faster growth. This shows that the science is right.
We get why you might worry about this, but we’re here to help. We’ll talk it through during your consultation. We can show you the science and even do a test area if you need more reassurance.
In short, you can enjoy the smooth, glowing results of dermaplaning without worrying about your hair. It’s safe, effective, and won’t change the fine vellus hair on your face.
At our Brighton and Moonee Ponds salons, we often get asked about dermaplaning timing for big events. Getting it right means you’ll shine on your special day.
We suggest booking your dermaplaning 2-4 days before your event. This way, you get smooth and glowing skin right away. Plus, your skin has time to fully adjust.
Right after treatment, your skin looks amazing. But, some might see a bit of redness that fades in a few hours. Others might feel their skin is a bit sensitive for the first day.
Waiting a couple of days before your event lets your skin fully adjust. Any sensitivity goes away, and your skincare products work better on your new skin.
This timing also means you can test your makeup on your new skin before the big day. You’ll know how your foundation and other products look and feel.
Many of our clients choose to get dermaplaning on a Thursday or Friday for weekend events. Others book early in the week for weekend weddings. This way, it fits easily into busy schedules.
| Event Timeline | Recommended Booking | Key Benefits | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weekend wedding | Thursday morning | Two full days to settle, Friday makeup trial possible | Brides and wedding parties |
| Saturday night gala | Wednesday or Thursday | Skin fully settled, confident makeup application | Formal events and black-tie occasions |
| Important presentation | 2-3 days prior | Professional glow without sensitivity concerns | Work events and conferences |
| Last-minute occasion | Day before event | Immediate radiance and smoothness | Clients with proven skin tolerance |
If you need a quick glow-up, dermaplaning the day before works great. Most people have no issues, and it looks amazing right away.
For those with very sensitive skin or trying dermaplaning for the first time, book early. This way, you can see how your skin reacts before a big event.
Our experienced therapists at our Brighton and Moonee Ponds locations can help with timing. They’ll consider your skin type and event schedule for the best plan.
We want you to feel confident on your special day. Whether you’re planning ahead or need it fast, we’ll make sure you look perfect.
Your skin is now fresh and clean after dermaplaning. It needs gentle care to keep it smooth and glowing. Aftercare is simple but crucial for your skin’s health.
Think of aftercare as protecting your investment. Your skin treatment in Brighton has removed weeks of buildup. Now, it’s time to give it the best environment to thrive.
Your skin has been exfoliated, so it needs time to recover. For the first day or two, avoid any additional exfoliation. No physical scrubs, chemical exfoliants, or cleansing brushes.
Keep cleansing gentle. Use lukewarm water and a mild, non-irritating cleanser. Pat your skin dry with a soft towel instead of rubbing.
Avoid very hot water, saunas, steam rooms, or intense workouts for the first 24 hours. Heat and sweat can irritate your skin, so take a break.
Your skin is now more vulnerable to sun damage. This makes daily sun protection absolutely crucial for maintaining your results.
Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every morning, even on cloudy days. Melbourne’s weather can be deceiving—UV rays penetrate clouds and cause damage year-round. Reapply throughout the day if you’re outdoors for a long time.
This protection isn’t just about preventing sunburn. It’s about keeping your skin smooth and preventing premature aging.
Keep your skin hydrated to support its natural barrier function. Apply a nourishing moisturiser morning and evening, choosing formulas that suit your skin type.
Your skin will drink in hydration more readily after dermaplaning. This is the perfect time to use quality serums and moisturisers. They’ll penetrate more effectively and deliver better results.
Give your skin a few days to adjust before introducing potentially irritating treatments or products. Hold off on retinoids, strong active ingredients, chemical peels, or other aggressive treatments for at least 3-5 days after your dermaplaning appointment.
This doesn’t mean your skincare routine needs to be complicated. It simply means being thoughtful and gentle while your skin settles into its newly refreshed state.
| Aftercare Do’s | Aftercare Don’ts | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Apply SPF 30+ daily | Skip sun protection | Newly revealed skin is more vulnerable to UV damage and pigmentation |
| Use gentle, hydrating products | Use harsh exfoliants or scrubs | Skin has already been exfoliated and needs time to recover |
| Cleanse with lukewarm water | Use very hot water or steam | Heat can irritate freshly treated skin and cause sensitivity |
| Moisturise morning and evening | Use strong actives immediately | Skin barrier needs support and hydration, not additional stress |
Aftercare is where your dermaplaning results really shine. The few days after treatment are when your skin is at its most receptive to nourishment and its most vulnerable to damage. Simple, gentle care during this window makes all the difference.
Our therapists provide personalised aftercare instructions after every treatment at both our Brighton and Moonee Ponds locations. These recommendations are tailored to your specific skin type and the products you use at home.
