Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is a great way to revive dull, tired and flaky skin. Using a diamond-encrusted exfoliation tool, our team can gently remove the layers of dead and dull skin on the surface. 

As a result, you’ll notice smoother, brighter, and clearer skin – minimizing the appearance of large pores, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. Not to mention, the exfoliation technique used in Microdermabrasion can improve collagen production. 

Dermaplaning

With dermaplaning, you can achieve softer skin and a healthier complexion with one simple treatment. It’s relatively quick & painless, and this service effectively minimizes the appearance of fine lines and scarring in addition to promoting clear and radiant skin.  

Here’s what it means to get dermaplaning in Fort Collins: Our expert aestheticians will use a gentle exfoliating tool on the skin, sloughing off dead skin cells and removing fine hairs that trap dirt and oil. As a result, this gentle exfoliating treatment will help you prevent future breakouts while immediately improving your skin, making it more smooth and supple.

questions

While shaving might eliminate peach fuzz temporarily, facial dermaplaning uses a fine blade to deeply exfoliate the skin, clearing dead skin cells and unwanted hair. Because the method is more precise, dermaplaning must be done by a licensed professional.

While both treatments are meant to exfoliate, the methods and results differ slightly. Dermaplaning does remove the vellus hair from the face, whereas microdermabrasion does not.

Additionally, dermaplaning uses a precision scalpel whereas microdermabrasion utilizes a diamond-encrusted vacuum tool. Because of this, you’ll likely see a deeper exfoliation from microdermabrasion.

Dermaplaning is virtually painless, and it requires no recovery time. While we recommend waiting a day to let your skin settle, you can apply makeup as soon as you’d like (and it will apply SO much smoother after your appointment). Microdermabasion can feel different to each person, but our team can customize your treatment so it works best for you and your needs.

Because our skin is constantly regenerating new skin cells and shedding old ones, neither treatment permanent. Like any other exfoliating treatment, microdermabrasion and dermaplaning in Fort Collins must be done regularly to maintain results. We recommend treatments once a month, but you should always consult your aesthetician at Facetté medical spa before you make this decision.

The length of an appointment is entirely dependent on the area being treated, but you can expect to be at our Fort Collins medical spa 30-45 minutes!
