The key principles for MILLION DOLLAR facial…
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is a manual exfoliation cosmetic procedure that gently abrades the top layers of the skin using a surgical blade with Million Dollar skincare products.
The procedure aims to increase the absorption of skincare/tropical products and diminish fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment stimulates collagen synthesis and creates a healthy glow and radiant complexion.
Dermaplaning aims to make your skin surface smooth, youthful and radiant. It is also used to remove ‘peach fuzz’ the short soft vellus, non-terminal hair from your face.
Microneedling
The act of Microneedling creates multiple superficial puncture wounds, releasing growth factors that stimulate the fibroblasts creating new collagen and elastin.
The aim of the treatment is to traumatise the skin without collateral damage to the epidermis and healthy tissue.
The recovery is rapid with very little downtime, residual pain or discomfort.
Microneedling increases the availability of cell nutrients and helps to strengthen the collagen in vessel walls and connective tissue.
It increases the density of the epidermis lessening the appearance of broken capillaries
Lymphatic Massage
Lymphatic massage is a fantastic treatment which has been around for many years. Its multiple benefits are always widely documented, especially when it comes to skincare and addressing acne.
When used in conjunction with topical acne products, lymphatic massage of the face and decollate area can be highly effective due to its ability to prevent sluggish circulation and remove unwanted toxins.
This reduces puffiness and keeps our complexion healthy.
