Dermaplaning

Vida Wellness Is Your Trusted Source In Vermont For Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a gentle, non-invasive exfoliation treatment that removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair, often referred to as "peach fuzz," from the surface of the skin. Using a sterile surgical scalpel, our skilled practitioners carefully glide the tool across your skin, revealing a smoother, brighter complexion.

This treatment not only leaves your skin incredibly soft but also enhances the absorption of skincare products and provides a flawless canvas for makeup application. Dermaplaning is especially effective for those looking to improve the texture and tone of their skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and achieve a more radiant glow.

Dermaplaning is safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin, and requires no downtime, making it an ideal option for a quick skin refresh. Whether you're preparing for a special event or simply want to maintain a healthy, glowing complexion, dermaplaning at Vida Medical Spa offers a simple yet effective solution for achieving beautifully smooth skin.
