Product Descrition

Exfoliation is an important part of any skin care regimen. Allowing dead skin to accumulate on makes the skin look dull and dry. It can also define fine lines and wrinkles and even cause congestion in the pores. There are many ways to exfoliate the skin, one of them being dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is unique in that it not only removes the dead skin it also removes the fine little hairs that cover the face
Dermaplaning can only be performed by a licensed professional as it uses a surgical blade to remove both the skin and hair, leaving patients with silky, smooth, radiant skin.
Dermaplaning also pairs well with a number of skin procedures and treatments such as Oxygen facial, VI peel or any chemical peel, HydraFacial, Affirm laser and IPL.

Specification

How does work ?

Dermaplaning utilizes a surgical blade or scalpel to remove the fine, vellus hair along with the outer layer of dry, dead skin.
How is this different from shaving you ask? Dermaplaning gives you a much closer shave than a razor can provide. The scalpel cuts the hair at an angle instead of blunting the end like with a razor. This is important because when the hair begins to grow back it isn’t scratchy like razor stubble but rather the hairs are immediately soft.
By removing the hair and dead skin it allows your skin care products to penetrate better which allow for better results. You will also find that your make-up will go on flawlessly.
This is a perfect treatment if you are getting ready for a special event or as part of your ongoing maintenance program.

The Week Before Your Procedure

* 3-5 days before your dermaplaning treatment it is advised to stop using exfoliating products, acids and bleaching

creams/products.
* Discontinue retinols and tretinoin (Retin-A) at least 12 hours in advance (day before).
* If you have had recent sun exposure be sure all redness or sunburns have completely healed before having dermaplaning.
* Do not wax or have a skin treatment like a chemical peel or IPL 2 weeks prior to your treatment.
* Dermaplaning cannot be done if you have active acne, cold sore or open lesions.

The Day of Your Treatment
There is no real prep involved on the day of your treatment. It is always preferred that you come in with a clean face (no
make-up), however if you are coming from work, we will have you cleanse your face once you arrive.
