DERMAPLANING
Dermaplaning is a procedure that exfoliates your skin and gets rid of dirt and vellus hair, better known as “peach fuzz.”
DERMAPLANING
Peach fuzz (vellus hair) is a type of facial hair that’s shorter, softer in texture, and lighter in color compared to other hairs on your body. While not typically visible to others, you may still elect to remove peach fuzz if you want a smoother face, along with better makeup application. Vellus hair also tends to be very short and is usually no longer than 2 millimeters.
​
Dermaplaning is a procedure that uses a scalpel-like blade to shave off the outermost layer of skin, along with any hair or impurities. This layer is exposed to UV rays, environmental toxins, and irritants that can make the skin look dull. By removing it, dermaplaning reveals fresher skin cells that can give the skin a smoother and more radiant appearance.
​
Will Hair Grow Back Thicker or Darker After a Dermaplaning Facial?
Dermaplaning does not affect hair growth permanently. You may notice some stubble when your hair grows back. This does not mean that your hair has become thicker or darker. It is because each hair was trimmed with a straight edge. Your hair is the same as it was before dermaplaning in terms of texture and color.
