Derma-planing is a physical exfoliation procedure. It requires the use of a sterile, surgical scalpel to gently "shave" the skin's surface, removing the top-most layer of dead skin along with fine, villus hair (peach fuzz).
No, you hair will not grow back thicker. Re-growth after derma-planing may feel slightly different because the hair has been shaved straight across.
Derma-planing is recommended for all skin types except those who are acne prone (cystic acne). Derma-planing is not a safe service to perform with open wounds or acne sessions.
It is recommended every three to four weeks. Each time you get derma-planed, you're removing about two to three weeks' worth of dead skin cells.
