Dermaplaning

What is Dermaplaning?

Dermaplaning is an effective skincare treatment that not only helps to minimize the visibility of skin imperfections but also promotes healthier, more radiant skin by exposing a fresh layer beneath. This procedure primarily focuses on exfoliating the outermost layer of skin, which is often laden with dead cells and impurities. By doing so, it aids in the removal of dry, flaky patches, leading to a more even skin texture.

 

Additionally, dermaplaning is widely sought after for its ability to eliminate vellus hairs, commonly known as "peach fuzz," which can contribute to a dull complexion. The removal of these fine hairs enhances the efficacy of skincare products, allowing them to penetrate deeper and work more effectively. Furthermore, this treatment results in a smoother canvas for makeup application, ensuring a flawless finish and a vibrant appearance.
