Where can I find Dermaplane Kansas City

Nikky
Co-Owner / Aesthetician

I have always been obsessed with the beauty industry and everything about it. At a very young age my mom taught me how to take care of my skin, she always told my sister and me how important it is to wash your face and she always bought us the best products. It just stuck with me I guess. When I was finally of age to work, I always had a job in the beauty industry working at cosmetic counters. As much as l loved makeup, it was the skincare products that excited me more. I decided to go to esthetics school in 2000. It's been such an inspiring journey since. I’ve met so many great and knowledgeable humans along the way in this industry. I met Sean, who is not only my business partner but my bestie. And most importantly, I get to help people feel great about themselves.</p>
<p>I love how this industry is forever growing. I enjoy learning about new treatments, technology, and products that I can use in my treatment room to deliver the best results to my patients. When you love what you do it’s not work and I absolutely LOVE my “job”!

Sean

Co-Owner / Nurse Practitioner / Nurse Injector
I’ve always wanted to get into Medical Aesthetics ever since I can remember, but it’s a tough industry to get into. After practicing Primary Care for the under/uninsured in the Kansas City Metro area for a couple years as a nurse practitioner, I was able to breakthrough. In 2015, I joined a surgical organization where I was the lead nurse practitioner for the facial plastic surgery division. Working there provided me the foundation to my injection career. In 2017, I left this surgical organization and started working in a medical spa where I soon became the Lead Injector. It was at this medical spa that I met Nikky. After working together for a year we decided to open up Face KC Medical Spa in February of 2019. I am now a Master Injector who focuses primarily on injectables and I wouldn’t change a thing!
<p>It’s a wonderful feeling to be a business owner, but an even better feeling because I’m doing what I’ve always wanted to do-Medical Aesthetics.

What are HA Fillers exactly?

Juvederm and Restylane, hyaluronic Acid fillers, are suspended within a gel carrier. This gel allows the hyaluronic acids to stay in place when injected. The hyaluronic acid works immediately by pulling in water, therefore, increasing the volume where injected. This is a great option for wrinkles, deep folds and other areas that need more volume such as cheeks and lips. These fillers are dissolved naturally with most lasting up to a year and some even longer.

There are various HA Fillers on the market. Here we use both Restylane and Juvederm HA Fillers to deliver subtle to dramatic enhancements. You have more options and can get customized results.

What are Neurotoxins exactly?

Botox

and Dysport are injectable neurotoxins which can temporarily improve wrinkle appearance. Repetitive muscle contractions can cause facial lines and wrinkles to form and get deeper over time. Botox or Dysport temporarily weakens these muscle contractions, making the skin appear smoother.

Common treatment areas include the forehead, frown lines, and crows feet. You can see results in as little as two days. However, they will gradually improve over two weeks. The effects of the treatment can last for up to four months if administered correctly.

What is Sculptra exactly?

Sculptra is a bio stimulatory injectable comprised of poly-L-lactic acid that helps to restore facial volume gradually. When injected, it stimulates your skin's natural ability gradually to make collagen. The polylactic acid will be biodegraded, and replaced with a network of new collagen after several months. Treatment areas can include the jawline and temples. In the beginning, most people will need three treatments spread over several months. Then they may only require one treatment every year. Your results may last for more than two years.

What is Kybella?

Kybella, an injectable treatment approved for permanently eliminating fat cells, is available. One to five Kybella vials may be required depending on the amount of fat. Multiple sessions may be required. The most common area to be treated is the submental, also known by the 'double-chin'. Once the desired aesthetic goal has been achieved, treatment can be stopped.

What is a Vitamin B-12 shot?

Vitamin B-12, an essential vitamin, is what our body needs to function well. This injection can help increase energy, improve fatigue, speed up metabolic rate, improve sleep patterns, increase concentration and boost the immune system.

What is HydraFacial exactly?

HydraFacial is a revolutionary treatment that addresses all your skincare needs.

HydraFacial super serums contain nourishing ingredients that give you a radiant glow in just a few minutes.

The first step cleanses and peels the skin to uncover a new layer of skin using gentle exfoliation. Next, a light chemical peel will be applied to smoothen the skin and prepare it in order for painless extractions. Next, debris is removed from the pores using painless suction while nourishing the skin. For a glowing skin, antioxidants or peptides will be infused into the skin. The best part is there is no downtime!

What is Dermaplane, exactly?

Dermaplaning uses a medical-grade surgical blade to remove the surface layer of dead skin, debris, and hair. A single dermaplaning session is able to remove around 2-3 weeks of built-up dead skin cells and debris from your skin. Dermplane is completely painless and non-invasive. The procedure may seem similar to shaving but is much more efficient as the blade used can get right to the top layer. There is no need to worry about the hair growing back darker- dermaplaning targets the vellus hair (peach fuzz) that grows back the same size and color. In addition, the way the surgical blade cuts the hair does not create the illusion of thicker hair. This treatment does not require downtime.

What is Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel is a treatment where a chemical solution is applied to the skin to remove the top layers of the dermis. Chemical peels can improve skin texture and radiance as well as reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. They also help decongest and treat acne-prone skin. Chemical peels come with a variety of strengths, including deep, medium, and superficial. Improvement in the skin varies depending on your concerns and which peel is selected to address your needs. For most, multiple treatments are recommended to achieve the best results.

What is Clear + Brilliant Laser and how do you define it?

Clear + Brilliant Laser uses advanced technology. However, Clear + Brilliant treatments are easy to obtain. All treatments begin with a consultation with your skincare practitioner to see if Clear + Brilliant is right for you - and to pinpoint some of the key trouble spots it can help address. Your practitioner will then recommend a Clear+ Brilliant Laser treatment plan. There are two handpieces available to treat skin texture issues such as fine lines/wrinkles, poor size spots or brown spots.

What is an Insta-Glo Facial?

You will be glowing for days with our signature Insta-Glo Facial! It is a combination of a customized ampoule and a customized HydroJelly masque that are suitable to address your skin concerns and needs.

What is Microneedling exactly?

Microneedling creates microscopic injuries to the skin and stimulates the body's natural wound healing process while minimizing cellular damage.

You may need to do a series between 3 and 6 treatments, depending on your results. There is minimal downtime with this procedure.

Lashes & Brows

Let's not forget about our lashes and brows! We all know by now that lashes and brows play a significant role in our overall aesthetics. We color the hair on our head so why not our lashes and brows? It can make your lashes look longer or fuller with a brow tint. This is done by coloring the hair's follicles from root to tip.

Get a lash lift to take things up a level. You can get a semi-permanent curl to your eyelashes that will last for as long as 6 weeks. Don't use mascara or curler on your lashes. Instead, save your time by using a lash/brow pigment and/or lash lifting.

Don't have time for a lash tint or lash extensions? Latisse can help! In as little as eight weeks, this at-home treatment can lengthen your lashes and make them thicker and darker.

What is Medical-Grade skincare?

What exactly is medical-grade skincare, you may ask? To begin, these skincare products usually have higher active ingredients concentrations than the ones you might buy over-the counter. That means quicker results in less time. Additionally, medical-grade skincare products can penetrate your skin at a deeper layer than those that are less effective. Although certain products may be more costly than the over-the-counter options, you can rest assured that you're getting high quality products that have been clinically validated to deliver optimal results.

That sounds amazing, right? We think so. So you will find our favorites products from three different medical-grade skin care brands: SkinCeuticals & SkinMedica.
