Dermaplane
An alternative to microdermabrasion and a great treatment for those with sensitive skin and/or peach fuzz. Dermaplaning is the process of using a sterile surgical blade to gently exfoliate and eliminate surface layers of dead skin cells and unwanted vellus hair (peach fuzz).

Commonly Asked Questions
If I remove my facial hair will it grow back darker and thicker?
The answer is NO. There are two types of hair on the human body, terminal and vellus hair. Terminal hairs are the thick pigmented hairs that grow by the influence of hormones (legs, armpits, scalp, pubic area, etc). Vellus hairs are fine translucent hairs usually found on a woman’s face, back or chest. Unlike terminal hairs, when vellus hairs are cut they grow back with the same thickness and length as before, only with a blunt tip and are expected to return in approximately two to four weeks post procedure. Removal vellus hair and dead skin cells allows for the proper penetration of other facial products, increasing their efficacy and ultimately their results.
​
How often can you be Dermaplaned
Dermaplaning removes about 2-3 weeks of dead skin cells, so in order for your skin to complete it’s normal skin cycle, approximately 30 days, the treatments should be done about once a month.
