Exfoliation is an important part of any skin care regimen, and dermaplaning is one of the most effective exfoliation techniques.
About Dermaplaning
Dull complexion, acne, and other skin problems often begin with dead skin cells, oils and dirt that accumulate on the surface of the skin. Daily exfoliation at home is a good way to reduce these impurities from the skin, but it may not be enough. Dermaplaning is a more intensive method of exfoliation, and we recommend periodic treatments to keep your skin healthy and beautiful.
