Dermaplaning has become a salon favourite for glowing, smooth skin, yet one myth refuses to die: that shaving your face makes hair grow back thicker. Let us clear it up.
What Is Dermaplaning?
Dermaplaning uses a sterile blade to gently remove dead skin cells and fine peach fuzz from the surface. The result is instantly smoother skin and a brighter, more even canvas.
The Benefits
- Smoother texture and immediate radiance
- Better product absorption afterward
- A flawless base for makeup application
- Softens the look of fine lines and dullness
Does Hair Grow Back Thicker?
No. This is a persistent myth. Dermaplaning cuts fine vellus hair at the surface, which can feel blunt as it regrows, but it does not change the number, colour or thickness of your hair.
Aftercare Tips
Freshly dermaplaned skin is more exposed, so keep it hydrated, skip strong actives for a day or two, and never leave the house without SPF. Space treatments a few weeks apart.
The Takeaway
Dermaplaning is a safe, effective glow booster, and the thicker-regrowth fear is unfounded. Done properly and protected afterward, it leaves skin smooth, bright and makeup-ready.
