Dermaplaining Before and After Photos
I’ve always been intrigued by dermaplaning, a form of exfoliation that involves removing the fine hairs from the face with a surgical blade. Face shaving removes that annoying peach fuzz, creates the perfect base for makeup application, and, due to the fact it allows product to penetrate the skin better, leaves skin with an incredible glow.
