What is derma planing
Dermaplaning is a cosmetic procedure that removes the top layer of your skin. The procedure aims to remove the fine lines wrinkles and deep acne scarring as well as to make the skin's surface to look smooth. This is achieved by using an exfoliating blade to skim dead skin cells and hair from your face. It is also used to remove the ‘peach fuzz’ the short soft hair on your face.
Who would benefit from this treatment
Dermaplaning can be used for any skin type it perfect for clients with ;
Acne scarring, dull skin, dry skin, sun damaged skin and fine wrinkles.
Your skin is exposed daily to harsh environmental toxins,irritants and sun damage. This can cause the top layer of your skin to appear dull and make you look aged. Dermaplaning clears away those damaged cells.
What to expect after treatment
Immediately after the treatment you may notice a difference but often takes a few days to appreciate the full results . you may notice a skin irritation within the first few days. I recommend this procedure every 3-4 weeks for best results.
A dermaroller is a skin care device used to help rejuvenate the skin, treat acne scarring and reduce signs of aching. When the dermaroller is rolled over the skin, the small fine needles on the roller puncture the skin. The holes that the needles create are tiny and superficial. The controlled injuries to the skin lead to superficial bleeding. This triggers the body's wound healing response and the following occurs
New blood vessels form in the skin
The skin starts to make more collagen
The skin releases substances that stimulate growth
This helps the skin to become firmer and may reduce the appearance of fine wrinkles.
Who would benefit from this treatment
It is great for any skin types, and for clients with larger pores, acne and for clients that just want a skin tightening boast.
What to expect after dermaroller treatment
You may notice skin irritation and redness within the first few days of the procedure, you also may notice peeling after the first few days which is normal. You can go back to work after the procedure if you feel comfortable. Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun, so sunscreen is a must.
I recommend a course of three treatments every 3-4 weeks for best results.
What is a 40% glycolic chemical peel
This is the most popular of the glycolic acid peel it has no downtime and great results that give you a smoother, softer and more even toned skin.
Glycolic acid is a naturally occurring chemical belonging to the alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) family. The dissolving action of the glycolic acid allows the dead skin cells to slough off leaving a
smoother skin surface with clear pores. This also stimulates collagen which helps pump up the skin from beneath smoothing out the fine wrinkles and superficial scars. After peeling your skin will feel softer, look smoother with improved texture and tone and
reduce signs of sun damage.

This procedure is suitable for all skin types both beginning and experienced peelers.
What to expect after procedure
There may be some redness after this procedure, after 2 days your skin might flake and peel slightly but should not have much if any peeling.
I recommend a course of 3 treatments to get best results , every 2-3 weeks.
