What is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning is the controlled scraping of the skin using a specialized blade held at a 45 degree angle for the removal of keratinized cells on the outer stratum corneum and fine vellus hair. This procedure increases the penetration of active ingredients in the treatment room and home care products. It creates the perfect canvas for makeup application and is the go-to treatment to prepare for high profile occasions.
Dermaplaning immediately rejuvenates the skin by removing the top layer of the skin cells from the stratum corneum along with vellus hair. It is highly effective in minimizing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars, while leaving the skin smooth and vibrant. It has been utilized in medical practices for over 40 years to prepare the skin for chemical peels and laser treatments. Dermaplaning is a physical/mechanical exfoliation that is extremely safe when performed by a professionally trained skin care specialist utilizing the appropriate tools and practices for the service.
Do I need to take a break from eyelash extensions?
No. If your lash technician applies the extensions correctly, you don’t actually need to take a “break” from your lashes. Proper isolation is important to ensure no damage is caused to the client’s natural lashes.
Can I schedule multiple services in one session?
Yes, you are allowed to stack as many services as you wish for the same visit.
How often is a facial recommended?
It is recommended to receive a facial treatment once a month and to being an at-home skin care regimen daily to see ultimate results.
How old can one be to get a facial?
The recommended age to start getting professional facials is during the early teen years (12-15). This is typically when puberty hits, hormonal shifts trigger excess oil production, and breakouts or clogged pores begin to surface. All patients under the age of 18 will be required to have a parent or legal guardian’s signature for consent at the time of their first appointment.
Is it normal to break out after a facial?
Yes, this is completely normal and is known as ‘purging’. Exfoliation, steam, and active ingredients speed up cell turnover. This brings trapped oil, dead skin cells, and micro-comedones (underlying congestion) to the surface faster than they would normally appear.
Freshly exfoliated and stimulated skin is also more vulnerable to bacteria from hands, makeup brushes, unwashed pillowcases, etc.. and could contribute to a breakout after a facial. Please follow aftercare instructions to ensure you’re protecting your new skin from harmful bacterias and maximize your facial results.
