Dermaplaning
Greenwood Village, CO
The slightest hormonal imbalance can significantly impact your health and well-being. From weight gain to mood swings, low energy, and more, your hormones play a critical role in your quality of life– for better or for worse.
What to Expect During Treatment
Before your session, your provider will cleanse your skin to remove oils, makeup, and debris. A sterile, surgical-grade blade is then used at a 45-degree angle to exfoliate the skin and remove peach fuzz gently. This process is entirely painless and takes around 30 minutes to complete.
After treatment, a warm towel is applied to remove any residual debris, followed by nourishing moisturizers to hydrate and protect your skin. You can return to your daily activities immediately with no recovery period required.
The Benefits of Dermaplaning for Skin Health and Makeup Application
Dermaplaning offers multiple benefits for various skin types and conditions. Here are some of the most notable advantages:
- Smooths skin texture: Gently removes dead skin cells for a soft, refreshed feel.
- Brightens complexion: Promotes a radiant glow by eliminating dull surface layers.
- Improves product absorption: Enhances the effectiveness of skincare products.
- Minimizes fine lines and acne scars: Encourages smoother skin with repeated sessions.
- No downtime: Return to your normal routine immediately after treatment.
This treatment is ideal for individuals seeking a refreshed, glowing appearance without the use of harsh chemicals or abrasive techniques.
How to Prepare for Your Dermaplaning Appointment

- Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 3 days prior.
- Discontinue use of retinoids or exfoliating products 48 hours before treatment.
