Sirens Beauty Salon · Durham City Centre
Dermaplaning in Durham, instantly smoother, brighter skin
A quick, comfortable treatment that gently removes dead surface skin and fine peach fuzz with a sterile blade, leaving skin instantly smoother and brighter, helping your skincare absorb better and making makeup sit beautifully. We will always be straight with you: this is a gorgeous refresh and prep rather than a fix for deeper concerns like scarring or pigmentation, and if your skin needs something different we will point you to it. Honesty over upselling, every time.
What is dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is a non invasive treatment that uses a specialised blade to carefully remove fine facial hair, often called peach fuzz, from the surface of the skin. On healthy, resilient skin it removes unwanted facial hair, improves the look and feel of skin texture, and lets skincare products absorb more evenly. And no, it does not make hair grow back thicker or darker. Technique, skin selection and aftercare are what matter.
A focused treatment, done properly
At Sirens, dermaplaning is offered as a simple, focused treatment rather than an add on to a full facial. Your appointment includes a cleanse to prepare the skin, professional dermaplaning carried out with care and precision, and moisturising to support skin comfort. LED light therapy can be added afterwards to calm the skin, support healing and reduce potential sensitivity, as a supportive finish rather than a corrective treatment.
Dermaplaning sits alongside our facials and LED facials, and if a different treatment would serve your skin better, we will say so before you book.
Before you book
Right for some skins, and we will tell you which
Dermaplaning may suit you if your skin is generally healthy and stable, your main concern is facial hair rather than exfoliation, you rarely experience breakouts, sensitivity or inflammation, and you want a simple, targeted treatment rather than a full facial. On the right skin it is a safe, effective way to remove unwanted facial hair.
To protect skin health, we advise against dermaplaning if you have active acne or congestion, sensitive or reactive skin, rosacea or persistent redness, a compromised skin barrier, or inflamed, broken or sensitised skin. It should never be used as an aggressive exfoliation method, as overuse can damage the skin barrier and worsen underlying conditions. Being transparent about suitability is part of our responsibility as skin professionals, and if dermaplaning is not right for you we will recommend what is.

Dermaplaning questions, answered
Will the hair grow back thicker or darker?
No. Dermaplaning does not change how your facial hair grows back. The fine vellus hair returns just as it was, soft and light.
Is there any downtime?
None. Skin is instantly smoother and brighter, and makeup sits beautifully straight away, which is why many clients book it before an event.
What does the appointment include?
A cleanse to prepare the skin, professional dermaplaning carried out with care and precision, and moisturising to finish. You can add LED light therapy afterwards to calm the skin and support healing.
Is dermaplaning right for my skin?
It suits generally healthy, stable skin where facial hair is the main concern. If you have active acne, sensitive or reactive skin, rosacea, or a compromised skin barrier, we will advise a treatment that serves your skin better. If you are unsure, just ask before booking and we will guide you honestly.
