Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is a minimally invasive procedure that shaves away the top layers of your skin. It can help reduce the appearance of acne scars or pitted skin. Some people get dermaplaning to remove unwanted hair.
How Does It Work?
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation treatment that uses a sterile surgical scalpel to gently remove dead skin cells and fine facial hair (peach fuzz). This procedure reveals a smoother, brighter complexion and allows for better absorption of skincare products. People opt for dermaplaning to achieve immediate skin rejuvenation, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and enhance the effectiveness of their skincare routine.
