Epi-Blading Treatments

Epi-blading is a form of facial exfoliation that involves scraping away dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. Also known as epidermal levelling, it uses a very sharp surgical scalpel to shave the surface of the skin.

Epi-blading is completely pain free.

No, Epi-blading will gently remove any fine vellus hair (peachy fuzzy) and the rough dead skin build up. Hair will not grow back thick, stubby or darker as there is no stimulation to the hair follicles to encourage excessive re-growth.

The results can last up to four weeks. The procedure removes three weeks of dead skin cells, so your glow will last all month long. However since your skin is constantly growing, you’ll need to schedule an appointment every month or so to maintain your results.

Your skin will have a healthy, pink, flushed glow from circulation. This will subside in 1 – 4 hours, no need to exfoliate 3 days post treatment.

Epi-blading is recommended for all skin types. Patients with sun damage, fine lines, very dry skin and dull skin are great candidates. However, since the procedure requires use of a sharp scalpel, those with inflamed acne should pass on it until their complexion clears up.

No. There is no downtime and minimal to no redness after an Epi-Blading treatment, unlike waxing.

There’s no downtime. Some light redness can be expected but not always. It’s perfectly fine and common to make an appointment during lunch and go right back to work after your treatment.
