Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is a gentle, non-invasive exfoliation technique that removes the outer layer of dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz), leaving your skin ultra-smooth, radiant, and perfectly prepped for skincare absorption or makeup application. Using a sterile surgical blade, this treatment enhances skin texture and glow with immediate results and no downtime—making it a client-favourite glow-up solution for all skin types.
Benefits include:
• Smooths texture and instantly brightens skin
• Removes peach fuzz for a flawless, makeup-ready base
• Improves absorption of skincare products
• Minimizes the appearance of fine lines and acne scarring
• Delivers a fresh, dewy complexion with zero downtime
• Safe and painless for most skin types
