The Answer is “No”. When the hair is cut, it has a blunt edge. But this blunt edge does not mean that the hair structure itself has been physiologically altered. Dermaplaning will not cause the vellus hair on your face to grow back any darker, thicker or faster because the procedure does not trigger hair follicles. The hair will return just as it is, usually in about two to four weeks. There are two types of hair that grow on our bodies. Vellous hair is short, fine, light-colored, and barely noticeable hair and Terminal is thicker hair that grows under the arms, pubic area, eye brows, mustache and beard for men and legs. Vellous hair when cut or removed will grow back at the same rate and texture as before treatment. The structure of the hair and the hair growth pattern or hair texture does not change.
