Will My Facial Hair Grow Back Even Thicker?
The old wife’s tale suggests that hair will grow back thicker and darker after it’s been shaved off, but dermaplaning does not have this effect. This treatment does not alter your hair follicles. Only genetics can determine how fast your hair will grow, and hormones are responsible for deciding where you grow dark, thick hair and where you grow light, thin, vellus hairs.
Cleaner, Smaller Pores
This treatment serves as a deep cleaning of the face that removes dirt, oils, and dead skin cells from the pores. Once your pores have been cleaned, they’ll appear smaller on the face. This contributes to a more youthful look.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Anyone who wants to get rid of peach fuzz and minimize fine lines on the face, while also improving the overall look and health of the skin.

Patients who have received Botox or dermal fillers should wait at least two weeks before undergoing a dernaplane facial.
