Dermaplaning Vancouver

Dermaplaning is a method of exfoliation that consists of using a medical grade scalpel gently removing top epidermis layers of dulling dead skin cells, vellus hairs, and impurities.
Results can reveal a smoother, brighter complexion.
Uses a scalpel that is held with a specific angle using short strokes gliding along the skin using facial mapping to guide your treatment directions for best results.
Involves scraping dead skin cells and in addition shaving vellus facial hair better known as “peach fuzz” leaving the surface with ultimate smoothness.
Dermaplaning exfoliation can typically be a deeper than Microdermabrasion treatments which generally stops at the stratum corneum or horny layer of the outer skin.
Dermaplaning is known to aids in greater penetration of skincare products, brighten the appearance of the skin, and creates a smooth canvas for makeup applications.
Dermaplaning can be used to help prepare skin for more intrusive procedures such as laser treatments and chemical peels as examples.
Dermaplaning is a procedure much different than other hair removal techniques such as waxing or threading which is epilation from the root removing facial or body hair.
Dermaplaning is considered a non-invasive hair removal and exfoliating method when done properly.
