Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is an extremely popular non-invasive treatment that involves the gentle removal of dead skin and fine vellus hair "peach fuzz" from your face using a surgical scalpel.
Dermaplaning can result in smoother, brighter looking skin, and because you no longer have dead skin cells present on your face, your skincare products will be allowed to penetrate the skin much more easily.
Frequently asked questions
