Dermaplaning removes
up to 3 x times more dead skin cells than a microdermabrasion treatment. A huge
misconception with Dermaplaning is the treatment encourages the hair to grow
back darker and thicker than before.
We are not changing
the structure of the hair therefore the hair will continue to grow as it was
before. Terminal hairs are thick, dense hairs that are often deeply pigmented
so they appear much darker than vellus hairs. They also have deeper follicles than
vellus hairs so they start growing from further down in the dermis. Women
develop excessive body or facial hair due to higher-than-normal levels of
androgens, including testosterone. This is common in the over 30's. Hormonal
hair would be waxed, plucked or tweezed prior to treatment.
