I have a pack of Swan Mornton Surgical Blades No. 14 and I use them to dermaplane my skin at home. I dermaplane ONCE A WEEK as my form of exfoliating. I see many dermatologist say dermaplaning last for weeks or several months but I thought they might say that because they are talking about the results combined w/ expensive serums in office for a full facial.
