Dermaplaning is an excellent anti-aging treatment that provides immediate and cumulative results with each service you receive. Dermaplaning is a physical exfoliation that has removed dead skin cells and vellus hair form the surface of your skin. Your face should feel softer than ever and look brighter and more youthful.
Ideally, you would schedule 2 weeks apart from any cosmetic procedure such as botox, dermal fillers, PDO threads, chemical peels, waxing or microneedling.
Please schedule your treatment at least 1-3 days prior to upcoming events (i.e. photoshoot, wedding, etc). The most common side effect clients report is redness.
Retin-A and retinol products should be held 3-5 days prior to treatment.
Please discuss with your provider if you have the following as this may delay or contraindicate your treatment plan(s):
Cancer, Accutane, Blood Thinners, High doses of Aspirin, Acne grade 3 or higher, Cold Sores, Sunburn or Wind burned skin.
Please come to your appointment with a clean face if possible.
