Introducing dermaplaning!

If you have unwanted fine facial hair, ask us about dermaplaning!

  • Removes fine hair and exfoliates the face

  • Results in smoother skin

  • More gentle than waxing

  • More effective and longer-lasting results than shaving at home – dermaplane once every 3 or 4 weeks.  

Dermaplaning uses a medical-grade scalpel to remove fine hairs and dead skin from the face. More gentle and less traumatic on sensitive facial skin than waxing, dermaplaning is painless and the results are instant. Dermaplaning is fast and has no downtime.

Headlines’ newest esthetician, Alexis, is highly trained and certified in dermaplaning - please get in touch with us with any questions you might have about dermaplaning!

Benefits

Dermaplaning instantly smooths skin and makes it glow! Dermaplaning improves skin’s texture, and because your skin is smoother, makeup applies much more easily and gives better results. After dermaplaning, skincare products absorb more easily, making them more effective.

Dermaplaning is a much more effective alternative to shaving at home with a conventional razor – results are also longer lasting: about 3 weeks on average. Instead of having to shave fine facial hair multiple times a week, why not consider dermaplaning every 3-4 weeks?

Hair won’t grow back thicker

It’s a myth that hair grows back more thickly after dermaplaning. Your hair growth pattern will not change: it will grow back just as it was before.

When to avoid dermaplaning

A few active acne spots can be avoided, but you should not get dermaplaning when active acne covers a large portion of the face. You should also avoid dermaplaning on areas of the face that are not taut. Finally, thick hair cannot be dermaplaned: waxing is a better alternative for areas on the face with dense hair growth.

The process

Dermaplaning takes about 30 minutes: we first cleanse the skin, dermaplane, then finish with serum and moisturizer. Dermaplaning can also be added on to a traditional facial in place of the normal exfoliation step.
