How it works
The mechanism, plainly.
A sterile blade held at a shallow angle lifts away dead corneocytes and the fine vellus hair that traps them. Nothing penetrates the skin; it is exfoliation, performed precisely.
The immediate effect is optical — light reflects evenly off a smooth surface — and the practical one is that serums and SPF meet skin rather than debris. The hair grows back exactly as it was; it does not return thicker or darker.
What to expect
The visit, step by step.
Your appointment is booked for 45 min. Here is where that time actually goes.
Assessment and cleanse
10 minSkin examined under magnification, a look at what you are currently using at home, and a note of anything that has flared recently. Half of a good facial is deciding what not to do.
The active step
25–35 minExfoliation, extraction or needling depending on the plan, worked in sections so the practitioner can stop early on any area that is reacting more than expected.
