What are some myths about dermaplaning?
"Dermaplaning will make my facial hair grow back thicker or darker."
FALSE: Although the myth has been around forever, the truth remains that your hair will grow and look the same after dermaplaning. Facial hair growth in women depends on androgen hormone levels, including testosterone and androstenedione. Dermaplaning can’t change your hair growth, but it can seriously boost your skin’s glow.
"Dermaplaning will irritate my skin."
FALSE: Our routine leaves skin hydrated, smooth, and glowing. The dermaplaning blade features our patented Skin Defense Guard with a protective round tip that allows the at-home dermaplaning tool to get close to the skin with less risk of nicks or cuts. Some people believe you’ll break out after dermaplaning, but this also just isn’t true. It is, however, important to recognize that while dermaplaning is a great way to easily exfoliate skin, it isn’t recommended for people with active acne or lesions.
"Dermaplaning is painful."
FALSE: When done properly, dermaplaning has the similar sensation as shaving your legs or underarms. For a comfortable experience, it’s important to find the best dermaplaning razor and be sure you’re using a fresh, clean blade. Our razor blade with Skin Defense Guard has a protective guard around the blade and rounded protective tip for easy at-home use. Unlike most single-use razors, our dermaplaning razor features a premium, durable handle built to last, so you can simply change the blades with a click. The refillable blades may be used up to three times, for a smooth, comfortable experience.
"Dermaplaning can’t be done at home."
FALSE: Dermaplaning at home, with the right tool and routine, is an easy and effective way to achieve smooth, glowing skin. Thanks to our innovative, high-quality blade featuring a Skin Defense Guard and a rounded protective tip, Venus for Facial Hair & Skin Care respects your skin. The full DIY dermaplaning routine makes the at-home process affordable, and upkeep can be done as needed from the comfort of your own home.
"Dermaplaning on active acne can irritate the skin."
TRUE: We do not recommend dermaplaning acne, or over an active pimple or lesion, as this can create a breakout or acne irritation.
