Epidermal Levelling

Epidermal Levelling is an integral part of all skin care routines as it provides the following benefits:

• removal of dead cell build up
• minimises congestion and pore blockage
• increases the rate of new cell turnover in the deeper levels of the skin
• stimulates the production of the skin’s own collagen and elastin
• increases absorption of active skin products (Vitamins A, C etc)

What does the treatment involve?The skin is cleansed thoroughly and then degreased to ensure there is no residual oil remaining on the skin. The skin is held tight and the blade is scraped across the skin at a 45 degree angle. Once this is completed a peel rich in anti oxidants, is applied to the skin. This may tingle initially, but resides quickly.
