Remove first row of csv file with fast-csv in node js

Question

I'm using the fast-csv node module to parse a csv and it's parsed successfully but i don't want the title of the fields. The output looks like this

[ 'ID', 'Date', 'Description', 'Amount' ]
ID
desc Description
[ '1', '12/4/30', 'kebab ab  ', '-1900.00' ]

the first row is the title of the fields but want to remove them from the output. How do i do it?`

Set the headers option to true to have it ignore the first line:

const parser = csv({ headers : true });

My problem is a little different, there is one line and then comes the header. I tried to set skipLines: 1 and headers: true, but can't make it work. Any ideas?

@GuilhermeSampaio should work, at least a simple example does.
