What Are the Benefits of an Exfoliating Facial?

 


Exfoliation provides many benefits to your skin by removing dead skin cells and speeding cell turnover. This helps to even out skin tone and restore a healthy glow. Exfoliating facials can be performed in different ways, either manually or chemically. 

Manual exfoliation is done with exfoliating agents such as sugar scrubs and sloughs away dead skin cells with scrub -like abrasives from the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin. Chemical exfoliation is performed with products that contain an exfoliating agent such as beta hydroxyl acids (BHAs) or alpha hydroxyl acids (AHAs). 

The Many Benefits of Exfoliation

Incorporating regular facial exfoliation into your skincare regimen is the best way to experience maximum benefits.  There are numerous benefits of exfoliation such as:

  • Increasing blood circulation 

  • Reducing fine lines and wrinkles 

  • Eliminating dead skin cells and oil that clog pores

  • Stimulating cellular renewal

Eliminating dead surface skin cells and oils helps to prevent whiteheads, blackheads, and other causes of acne flare ups that leave skin listless and dull. If you live in an urban area with high levels of air pollution, exfoliation is even more important.

Fall Skincare Tips: Dermatologist Approved

With the transition of summer to fall, we also need to transition our skincare routine as hot, humid weather is replaced by drier, cooler air. Our skin reacts to temperature changes in the humidity, and hot summer weather helps our skin to retain moisture. With the drier air and the use of indoor heating, our skin can lose moisture quickly, causing dryness, irritation, and sensitivity. Changing up your skincare routine for the fall is not just trendy; it is crucial to maintain happy, healthy skin all year long. Here are some things you can tweak in your skincare regimen to protect against drier air and cooler temps. Use a thicker moisturizer - you should switch to a thicker moisturizer to compensate for the environmental changes. Using a thicker moisturizer at night will help your skin to retain moisture during fall and winter. Use eye cream and lip moisturizer - if eye cream and lip moisturizer are not part of your skincare routine already, they should be during cooler months. Using
