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.
