About This Treatment
Recommended for All Skin Types
Duration: 45 mins
This treatment is a non-invasive exfoliation technique that utilizes a sterile surgical scalpel to delicately remove the outer layer of skin. Dermaplaning also removes peach fuzz, helping with smoothness and better product absorption. You can expect a radiant complexion with minimized imperfections, a visibly smoother surface and an overall healthier appearance.
- Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed
- The Dermaplaning treatment is performed over the entire face
- Finishing products are applied including a serum, oil, and moisturizer selected for your skin type
Please note that treatments do not include traditional facial components such as extractions, massage, and masks.
