Skin CareObtaining the perfect Holiday glow is every woman’s dream. If you are ready to say goodbye to rough, dry and dull skin, North Scottsdale Laser & Skin Care Clinic has the tools to make your complexion look youthful and gorgeous. Find out how our dermaplaning and glycolic peel treatments can help you achieve the beautiful complexion you always wanted.

Dermaplaning

If you are looking for a safe and effective exfoliating treatment without side effects, dermaplaning is the perfect treatment for you.
Dermaplaning is typically used for exfoliation and shaving of the epidermis and getting rid of bothersome peach fuzz. This procedure is often confused with dermabrasion a far more aggressive cosmetic skin treatment. However, dermaplaning is a simple shaving of the epidermis used to reveal your smoother, healthier skin.
Dermaplaning is a quick and painless procedure with immediate results and no side effects. The treatment is performed by a trained esthetician using a scalpel. The scalpel is applied to the skin using delicate feathery strokes in order to gently abrade the skin’s surface. The skin is pulled taut for best results and for a closer, safer removal of the fine hair and epidermis.

Glycolic Peel

The glycolic peel is a chemical treatment that removes the surface layer of your skin. This peel is incredibly beneficial for the skin, as it removes debris on the skin’s surface and also removes the top layers of skin to reveal younger, more beautiful skin underneath. During the treatment, no pain is usually felt so no anesthetic is used because the only thing the patient would feel would be a temporary, slight stinging sensation.
You will feel some degree of stinging during the procedure and you may experience sensitivity to the sun, dryness, flaking and mild skin irritation after the treatment. However, the skin will heal quickly and reveal the new, rejuvenated you just in time for the Holidays!
