Most skin types can get dermaplaning, but it's not recommended for people with severe acne, active cold sores, or open skin lesions. It's also not recommended for people who are using certain medications, such as Accutane or prescription retinols.

You can get dermaplaning every 3–4 weeks, but you should allow your skin to complete its normal skin cycle of about 30 days before repeating.

During your appointment, aesthetician will clean your skin, remove makeup, and use a surgical blade to remove hair. The process is usually painless, but you might experience some redness and blotchiness.

After dermaplaning, you should be gentle with your skin and avoid the sun. You can apply a hydrating moisturizer to soothe your skin, and you should use broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF30. You should also avoid other facial treatments for at least two weeks.

No, hair will grow back normally after dermaplaning. Dermaplaning removes hair from the surface of the skin, but it doesn't affect the hair follicle.
