  • Smooths away fine lines and wrinkles
  • Erases spots and discolouration
  • Removes minor acne scars
  • Tightens enlarged pores
  • Eliminates dullness

Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a gentle treatment that exfoliates your skin and gets rid of dirt and vellus hair, better known as peach fuzz  (no, it will not grow back thicker and darker!)  The exfoliation and hair removal can leave your skin brighter and smoother. The treatment helps to soften fine lines and wrinkles, and ease hyperpigmentation, or uneven skin tone.  It also allows for deeper product penetration. The benefits are dewy skin, faster cell turnover, and a smoother texture.  Dermaplaning is, quick, easy, and requires no downtime.  Safe for all skin tones and pregnant women. Book it as a facial upgrade (30 min), or as a complete facial experience!
