DERMAPLANING
Dermaplaning aims to improve the skin's texture and tone, leaving it smooth, radiant, and rejuvenated.
Dermaplaning is a cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a sterile surgical scalpel to gently exfoliate the surface of the skin, removing dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, commonly known as "peach fuzz." This treatment aims to improve the skin's texture and tone, leaving it smooth, radiant, and rejuvenated.
During the dermaplaning procedure, a trained skincare professional carefully glides the scalpel across the skin, removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells and fine hair. This process helps to promote cell turnover, unclog pores, and enhance the skin's ability to absorb skincare products.
Dermaplaning is suitable for all skin types and can address various skincare concerns, including dullness, rough texture, fine lines, and uneven pigmentation. Additionally, by removing the fine facial hair, dermaplaning can also create a smoother canvas for makeup application
