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.
