Microderm Abrasion
Dermaplaning is an exfoliation treatment that involves gently scraping the face with a medical-grade scalpel to remove the top layer of skin.
The shave removes dead skin cells and the fine vellus hairs known as peach fuzz, leaving the face’s surface ultra-smooth.
This type of exfoliation — sometimes called a scalpel facial — helps new skin rise to the surface by stimulating the development of new skin cells. It leaves patients with a more youthful and dewy face without harsh chemicals, excessive downtime, or pain.
