Dermaplaning:
It is a non-invasive method of skin rejuvenation, which leaves the skin immeidiatley feeling softer, smoother and glowing.
Dermaplaning is a safe and simple way of exfoliating the epidermis, and removing the soft vellus hair, commonly known as peach fuzz.
Dermaplaning is performed on the face only. We do not plane the eyelids, bridge of nose, or chest.
Dermaplaning can be performed every 3 to 4 weeks for maintenance and proper skin exfoliation. For correction of acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, and skin rejuvenation purposes, it may be performed at a closer interval. Dermaplaning is an excellent way to prep the skin for a chemical peel.
Dermaplaning is painless. The sensation is rather like a stiff toothbrush being used to clean someones face. Most clients find it very relaxing
