NOTE: Expectations post-treatment should be realistic and results are not guaranteed. For maximum results, more than one treatment will be required. The rate of improvement of skin depends on age, skin type and condition, degree of sun/environmental damage, pigmentation levels, or acne condition.

Clients are responsible for following home regimens that can minimize or eliminate possible negative reactions, including recognizing the importance of adhering to a sunscreen and avoiding the sun/tanning booths and extreme weather conditions. Possible reactions include, but are not limited to, redness, skin irritation, dryness, chafing, nicks, flaking, and peeling.

Dermaplaning is a physical/mechanical form of exfoliation using a specialized sterile, surgical blade for the removal of built up dead skin cells and vellus hair. Following treatment skin will be smoother, softer and better able to absorb the active ingredients in treatment and home care products. As with the use of any sharp instrument, there is the possibility of nicks or cuts. It is important that clients remain still during the dermaplaning portion in order to minimize that possibility. There are contraindications to this treatment, including but not limited to, cancer, active acne, bleeding disorders. Certain medications including blood thinners, and Accutane are contraindicated for this treatment due to the possibility of delayed clotting from a nick or cut. Although highly unlikely, permanent damage to skin can occur.
