Located on Whyte Ave in Edmonton, Alberta, we offer dermaplaning in our skincare service menu. Dermaplaning is considered to be superficial and is safe for most people. There are typically no side effects from this skin treatment.
The process immediately brightens the complexion, evens skin tone, and leaves the skin feeling supple and smooth.
The technician gently grazes a medical-grade scalpel over the surface of the skin. This process delivers a fine shave that removes the dull surface skin and vellus facial hair.
Lighten and Brighten.
Dermaplaning helps to remove hyperpigmentation. This process is most effective when combined with the AHA BOOST or Vit C BOOST. The dermaplane process will clear the surface of the skin. As a result, deeper penetration of the acid is attainable to target specific conditions.
Can it treat acne?
In our professional opinion, we do not recommend dermaPLANE as a primary means of treating acne. The risk outweighs the potential benefit when compared to other more effective methods of acne treatment. Try our Treatment Selection Guide to see our recommendations.
When will I notice my results?
The results of dermaPLANE are seen immediately following the procedure. The goal is to leave the skin feeling softer and looking radiant. Contrast is most evident when comparing the appearance before and after service, in those who have major build up and visible hair growth.
Are there any side effects?
There are typically no side effects from the procedure. Your skin may feel slightly exposed and sensitive for 1-2 hours following. It is recommended that with any professional skin care service extended sun exposure is avoided for a minimum 24-hour period.

Located on Whyte Ave, Dérmica offers lash lift services. Lash Lifts are a new generation perming method that is safer and more effective than traditional lash perms.
We use silicone pads to “lift” each lash individually and create a subtle, natural looking curl, giving the illusion of length for a full, natural-yet-perfect look.
Once your 45-60-minute service has wrapped up, your lashes are left with a smooth curl that can last up to 6-8 weeks!
Preparing for your appointment
While not necessary, pretreating helps to condition the lashes in preparation for the chemical process. Consider adding a Lash conditIoner to your routine. It will add enhancers to strengthen the lashes pre-service. In addition, daily use will bring you back to par post-service.
20% OFF Lash Lifts EVERY THURSDAY
If possible, arrive to your appointment with a fresh face. Contact lense wearers, please wear your glasses to your appointment.
TIP: It’s a good idea to wash your hair the day of your appointment considering you must avoid water on the lashes for 48 hours.
POST TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS:
AVOID THE FOLLOWING FOR AT LEAST 24 HOURS AFTER SERVICE: • Washing/wetting the treated area • Makeup

Located on Whyte Ave, Dérmica offers the ultimate Relaxation Massage service: The Relaxation Body Treatment.
This treatment starts off with a dry brush to exfoliate the skin. The Swedish Massage incorporated into this relaxing service helps to soothe and loosen the superficial layers of the muscles. Service is complete with a steamed towel press.
Your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, and legs are then treated to a hot towel press. This promotes blood flow.
What is the difference between relaxation massage and deep tissue massage?
Unlike deep tissue massage, a relaxation massage is not a therapeutic treatment. Instead, it’s meant to pamper and relieve stress through light, soft touch and pressure point techniques.
If you are seeking treatment for injuries or chronic pain covered by Alberta Health Care, we recommend accessing the services of an RMT.

Are there risks involved?
Microblading, like all other forms of tattooing, has risks associated with the procedure that though uncommon, must be reviewed.
During your microblading procedure, we use a fine sharp blade to make incisions into the skin in order to insert pigment. As a result your skin experiences a bit of trauma, which is why preparation and post care play such an important role.
What level am I?
The microblading level depends on whether you’re adding 10% or 100% more volume to your brows. Level 1 adds up to 30% coverage, while level 2 adds between 30-60%.

Preparing for the procedure
There are some simple guidelines you should follow prior to your procedure day. For instance, avoid alcohol consumption 12 hours prior to scheduled appointment as this can cause excessive bleeding and sensitivity during treatment.
In addition, avoid caffeinated beverages 2 hours prior to appointment as this can cause skin sensitivity.
