B

C

D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Yes, dermatologists do often recommend dermaplaning. Check out what dermatologist, Mona Gohara, MD, associate clinical professor at Yale shares about dermaplaning: “It’s like a turbo-charged exfoliator. It’s a great addition for anyone who already exfoliates regularly.”

Detailed explanation-2: -What is dermaplaning? Dermaplaning is used to treat deep acne scars with a hand-held instrument called a dermatome. The dermatome looks like an electric razor and has an oscillating blade that moves back and forth to evenly “skim” off the surface layers of skin that surround the craters, or other facial defects.

Detailed explanation-3: -By removing the top layer of the skin, dermaplaning can dramatically reduce the appearance of any acne scars, by removing the discolouration, and the uneven texture, associated with scar tissue.
