Introduction to Dermaplaning

Welcome to the world of radiant skin! At Direct Aesthetics, we bring you the transformative wonders of dermaplaning – a skincare secret to unveil your skin’s natural beauty. Dermaplaning is a physical exfoliation treatment that uses a surgical-grade tool to gently remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells from your face. This non-invasive treatment is designed to rejuvenate your complexion by gently scraping away dull, dead skin cells and unwanted peach fuzz. This technique is incredibly effective at revealing smoother, brighter and softer skin that looks and feels rejuvenated. This facial ritual is more than just a pampering session; it’s your ticket to smoother, brighter, and healthier-looking skin.

But that’s not all! Dermaplaning also helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars and hyperpigmentation, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to improve their skin’s overall texture and tone. Moreover, dermaplaning helps improve product absorption, which means that the skincare products you use will be able to penetrate your skin more deeply and effectively. This can lead to even better results from your skincare regimen and can help you achieve healthy, glowing skin.

At Direct Aesthetics, our highly trained healthcare providers perform dermaplaning treatments with precision and care. We use only the highest quality tools and techniques to ensure that you receive the best results.
