Question 4

Will my hair grow back thicker or darker after dermaplaning?

Accepted Answer

No. Dermaplaning does not change the thickness, color, or rate at which your facial hair grows.Because the hair is cut at the surface, it may initially feel slightly different as it grows back, but the treatment does not alter the hair follicle or cause hair to become thicker or darker.

Question 5

How long does a dermaplaning treatment take?

Accepted Answer

Treatment time depends on the area being treated and whether dermaplaning is performed on its own or as part of a facial.A standalone treatment is generally relatively quick, while appointments that include additional skincare treatments may take longer.

Question 6

Is there downtime after dermaplaning?

Accepted Answer

Dermaplaning typically requires little to no downtime.Your skin may appear slightly pink or feel mildly sensitive immediately afterward, but many patients return to their normal routine the same day.

Question 7

When will I see results?

Results are typically visible immediately.Skin may feel noticeably smoother and appear brighter and more refreshed right after treatment. Makeup may also apply more smoothly because dead skin and fine facial hair have been removed.

Question 8

How long do dermaplaning results last?

Accepted Answer

Results are temporary because the skin continues to renew itself and facial hair naturally grows back.Many patients choose to incorporate dermaplaning into their ongoing skincare routine to maintain a smooth, polished appearance.

Question 13

Can dermaplaning be combined with other treatments?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Dermaplaning is often incorporated into facials or paired with other skincare treatments.Removing surface buildup and dead skin can create a smoother canvas for products and other treatments, but your provider should determine which combinations are appropriate for your skin.
