Q: How often should you dermaplane?
A: Every three to four weeks works for most people. That gives the surface layer of skin time to renew between treatments, and doing it more frequently can leave skin feeling sensitised.
Q: Will dermaplaning make hair grow back thicker or stubbly?
A: No. Dermaplaning removes fine hair at the surface and does not affect the follicle, so it grows back exactly as it was. Regrowth can briefly feel different because the end is cut bluntly rather than tapered, but it is not thicker or darker.
Q: Is it safe to dermaplane at home?
A: Yes, with a light touch. Work on clean, dry skin, hold the blade at a shallow angle and use short downward strokes. Avoid going over active breakouts, and start with a fresh blade, which is what the pack of six is for.
