  • What is dermaplaning?

    Dermaplaning is a minimally invasive exfoliation procedure that uses a specialized surgical scalpel to remove dead skin cells and vellus hairs leaving the skin buttery soft and ready to absorb your skin products.

    Facial products and cleansers will be able to penetrate your skin giving better results, and your makeup will go on effortlessly. This service is especially effective on those with dry or rough skin texture as it helps to minimize superficial acne scarring or uneven skin tone. It is also beneficial for mature skin, which tends to have a buildup of dead cells as cellular turnover slows down with age.

    Dermaplaning will not make your vellus hairs grow back thicker.

  • What is a peel and why do I need it?

    Chemical peels work by removing the outer layers of the skin to enhance cell renewal and turnover, improving skin’s texture and appearance. They’re an excellent treatment choice for a wide range of skin concerns, from acne and hyperpigmentation to advanced signs of aging.

    With a fully customizable collection of peels that helps to target multiple skin concerns, your esthetician will work with you to redefine your peel experience, allowing you to receive a different, customized result with each treatment.

    There is minimal downtime with our gentle yet effective peels. Expect some light skin flaking a few days after your procedure.

    Best results are seen when booked in a series every 2-4 weeks.

    After talking to your esthetician you may be eligible to receive an Advance Peel which will deepen your results with a professional strength retinoid complex.

  • What are Targeted Treatments?

    Targeted Treatments are 25 minute treatments designed to address a specific skin concern, giving you relief and a glow on the go. These focused and informational services are done in our regular service rooms and are a perfect add-on to your waxing service.

  • Why Should I try a Micro-Facial Skin Analysis?
