Benefits of Dermaplaning:
Dermaplaning offers a range of benefits, making it an excellent choice for various skin concerns:
Smooth Texture: By removing dead skin cells, dermaplaning leaves your skin feeling incredibly soft and smooth.
Brighter Complexion: The treatment helps to reduce dullness, giving your skin a more radiant appearance.
Better Product Absorption: With the top layer of dead skin removed, skincare products can penetrate more deeply and effectively.
Reduced Fine Lines: Regular dermaplaning sessions can help to minimize the appearance of fine lines over time.
Peach Fuzz Removal: The treatment also removes vellus hair (peach fuzz), resulting in a smoother makeup application.
Treatment Process:
The dermaplaning treatment is straightforward and involves the following steps:

2. Dermaplaning: Using a sterile blade, your esthetician will gently scrape away dead skin cells and peach fuzz with precise, light strokes.
3. Moisturization: After the treatment, a soothing moisturizer will be applied to hydrate and calm the skin.
What To Expect:

- The treatment typically takes about 30-45 minutes.
