Dermaplaning
What is Dermaplaning? Dermaplaning is skin treatment that physically exfoliates the skin by removing dead skin cells with the use of a sterile surgical scalpel. At the same time this procedure removes vellus hair, also known as "peach fuzz", and surface debris. It helps to create healthier, smoother, and more radiant skin!
Your dermaplaning facial includes a double cleanse, toning, a nourishing oil treatment, dermaplaning treatment, followed by a cooling facial massage, moisturizer, and sunscreen.
Please follow all before and after instructions for optimum results.
