Here’s What You’re Missing Out on If You Haven’t Tried Dermaplaning Yet
Some people need to understand why things like dermaplaning even exist. Here is what you have been missing out on:
Smoother and More Even Skin
One of the most notable benefits of dermaplaning is that it removes peach fuzz and gives you skin as smooth as a baby’s bum. Waxing can irritate the skin, threading is too painful, and laser treatment is too expensive — dermaplaning is the saving grace. It also aids in profoundly cleaning the skin, exposing it to oxygen, and boosting collagen production. Many women notice a considerable difference in fine lines and wrinkles after consistent use.
Better Penetration of Skincare
Due to dead skin and peach fuzz, skincare often does not penetrate deeper within the layers of the skin. After dermaplaning, serums go deeper, acting faster and giving you the results you have been aiming for. The boost in your skin’s smoothness will also improve your makeup’s glide.
Flawless Makeup
Dermaplaning is your saving grace if your makeup doesn’t look as smooth due to peach fuzz. It helps improve your skin’s texture and removes excess hair overnight. With regular dermaplaning, your skin starts to get softer and spotless — and your makeup looks flawless.
Skin Rejuvenation
After a certain age, cell regrowth in our skin becomes very slow. Dermaplaning helps speed up the skin rejuvenation process — it is one of the mildest techniques to exfoliate the skin without harsh or abrasive scrubs. Due to the removal of dead skin, cells regenerate faster, giving your skin a youthful, plump glow.
No Breakouts
A huge misconception about dermaplaning is that it may make your skin break out. The case is different — dermaplaning helps avoid pimples and uneven skin texture by removing dirt that might clog pores.
Exfoliates the Skin
Dermaplaning is not a technique that only removes peach fuzz — it also helps exfoliate the skin. Physical and chemical exfoliants can make your skin sensitive, but dermaplaning is one of the best techniques to exfoliate and rejuvenate with minimal irritation, leaving behind a baby-soft surface.
Everything You Need to Know About Dermaplaning
Here are the key things to keep in mind when planning to do dermaplaning at home or in a salon:
Don’t Use Active Ingredients
One of the huge mistakes people make is applying skincare with active ingredients right after dermaplaning. Applying vitamin C, retinol, or niacinamide can make your skin sensitive and may cause peeling or painful red blisters. Avoid these for at least two days after dermaplaning and use a mild, gel-based moisturiser instead.
Use Sunscreen Generously
Dermaplaning takes off the upper layer of your skin, making it extremely sensitive to the sun. Using SPF after dermaplaning is non-negotiable. It is best to dermaplane when you know you will not go outdoors the next day.
Avoid Active Acne
Dermaplaning can irritate active acne — going over a breakout with the dermaplaning tool can puncture active acne and cause bruising and pain. If you have cystic acne, avoid dermaplaning until your condition subsides. Dermaplaning is however excellent for treating acne scars through regular exfoliation.
Use Skin-Soothing Ingredients
Always apply cooling and healing products if you experience redness afterward. Calamine lotion, aloe vera, and green tea products have calming properties that help heal the skin. You can also ice your face or use cold water to avoid sensitivity.
Don’t Use Chemical or Physical Exfoliants Straight After
Dermaplaning is itself a form of deeper exfoliation, so you don’t need additional exfoliants for at least a week. Using harsh exfoliators after dermaplaning can cause dryness, redness, and texture. Use hydrating products instead to achieve the glow you’ve been aiming for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is dermaplaning safe for all skin types?
Yes, dermaplaning is safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin. However, it is not recommended for those with active acne, rosacea flare-ups, or sunburned skin. Always consult a professional if you have concerns about your specific skin condition.
How often should I dermaplane?
For best results, dermaplane every 3–4 weeks. This aligns with your skin’s natural cell turnover cycle. Professional sessions cost £50–100 / $65–130 / €60–115, while at-home tools start from just £8 / $10 / €9.
Will my hair grow back thicker or darker after dermaplaning?
No — this is a common myth. Dermaplaning cuts vellus hair at the surface and does not affect the hair follicle. Hair grows back at exactly the same texture, colour, and rate as before.
What tools do I need to start dermaplaning at home?
You’ll need a sterile Swann Morton blade (10R or No.14), a No.3 handle, and alcohol wipes for cleaning. Beauty Mercado offers complete kits with everything you need. Always use sterile blades and follow proper safety protocols.
Can I wear makeup after dermaplaning?
Yes, but it’s best to wait 24 hours to allow the skin to settle. When you do apply makeup, you’ll notice it glides on more smoothly and lasts longer. Always apply SPF before makeup to protect your freshly exfoliated skin.
