The most common frequency is every 4-6 weeks. The hair can never be too long, length may add to increased sensation but will come up. However the hair can be too short; I suggest usually 1/4 inch, which is around the length of jasmine rice.

Pretty much anyone! Some of the deeper treatments aren’t meant for people with rosacea, using Accutane, or with active acne breakouts. BUT there are other options to meet the needs of those individuals.

Dermaplane is an outstanding, exfoliating treatment that uses a scalpel to gently slough off dead skin and peach fuzz. This facial is amazing for special occasions or just as a nice deep treatment. Redness, flaking, and feeling a little tight afterwards is not uncommon. This IS a deep exfoliation.
*NOT SUITED* for individuals with rosacea or who are on Accutane. Must stop all Retinol use at least 2 weeks before.
- 06
RF is an outstanding treatment that builds new skin cells. This non-invasive device uses low wave electro magnetic energy to gently warm the tissue. When the skin is warmed between 100-110 degrees, cellular regeneration takes place. This means NEW skin cells are being created. For long-lasting results it’s suggested to do 7-10 annually with the initial 4-6 spaced one month apart.
*NOT SUITED* for individuals with metal implants, active acne, rosacea, and must wait 3 weeks post injection/filler.

Argireline is a synthetic peptide that mimics the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that causes muscle contractions. Argireline prevents the release of neurotransmitters, which reduces muscle contractions and makes skin appear smoother and tighter. Argireline can help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, increase skin elasticity, and improve skin texture, tone, and luminosity.
