Dermaplaning

Is a gentle and safe medical skin treatment that is performed by a certified medical aesthetician. This safe and effective treatment utilizes a surgical blade that gently scrapes the outermost layers of the epidermis which aids in ridding the skin of dead cells, debris. impurities, and vellus hairs. Dermaplaning is an excellent way to exfoliate the skin and to regenerate new skin cells thus leaving the complexion smooth, soft and radiant.

Dermaplaning FAQ

+ What is it?

Dermaplaning uses a small blade to gently and painlessly remove dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. As a bonus, it also removes the fine vellus hair (or peach fuzz) as well! This results in a super smooth, glowing complexion.

+ Does it hurt?

Not at all! But remember there is a blade involved, so no sudden movements should be made without warning your technician.

+ Why should I get dermaplaning done?

There are so many benefits to this treatment. Exfoliation is a necessary step for healthy skin function. When the dead skin is removed your skin is not only smoother but your facial products will absorb better. Many women love how their makeup goes on after a treatment because there is no light facial hair emphasizing the makeup sitting on your skin. Dermaplaning is a fantastic treatment to have done prior to big events as well.

+ Who shouldn't get dermaplaning done?

Unfortunately, like any cosmetic treatment there are contraindications. Dermaplaning can be performed on men but only above the beard line to and including the forehead. It is not for anyone who has active acne breakouts especially cystic acne lesions.

+ How long does this treatment take?

Dermaplaning takes about 40 minutes on top of whatever facial you may already be receiving.

+ Is there downtime after receiving a treatment?

Absolutely not! Extremely sensitive clients may experience some redness afterwards. Most receiving this treatment will want to go out and show everyone your glowing complexion immediately afterwards!

With dermaplaning there is an express facial that goes along with the treatment, after which we will apply a moisturizer with SPF for sun protection. Always make sure to wear sunscreen (and reapply every two hours) for 2 weeks after this or any other exfoliating treatment.

+ What is a monthly express?

The Monthly Express is a great option for individuals looking for monthly upkeep of their skin care. This treatment is 45 minutes which include a cleansing, dermaplaning, and the final steps of a toner serum and hydrating cream suited for your skins needs.
