Dermaplaning
Reveal Smooth, Radiant Skin
Dermaplaning is a non-invasive exfoliation treatment designed to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion. By gently removing dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (peach fuzz), this treatment enhances your skin’s texture and allows for better absorption of skincare products.
Available at our Bedford, NH and Lynnfield, MA locations
How Dermaplaning Works:
Using a sterile surgical scalpel, a trained professional carefully glides the blade across the skin’s surface to remove dead skin buildup and fine hair. Unlike other exfoliation methods, dermaplaning is completely painless and requires no downtime, making it a convenient option for those looking to refresh their skin without any recovery time.
