WHAT IS DERMAPLANING?


Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation with a surgical scalpel that removes dead skin cells, texture, and vellus hair which leaves you with baby soft skin and helps give you a smooth foundation application all without the harsh exfoliators


WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF DERMPLANING?

Smoother skin, zero peach fuzz, and brighter looking skin. skincare products will better penetrate your skin when you apply them, making them all the more effective.


WILL DERMAPLANING CAUSE BREAKOUTS?

Quite the opposite, actually. A buildup of dead skin can clog your pores and hair follicles, which can not only cause pimples but also block your skincare products from penetrating the skin, which is why exfoliation is essential for maintaining an even, healthy glow.
