Your skin naturally sheds dead skin cells to make room for new cells\r\nevery 30 days or so. Sometimes, dead cells don\u2019t shed completely. This can\r\nresult in dry, flaky patches and clogged pores. Exfoliating can help prevent\r\nthis.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Unsure where to start? Read on to learn more about the\r\nbenefits, differences between physical and chemical exfoliation, where your\r\nskin type comes in, and more.<\/span><a name=\"benefits\"><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>How does exfoliation benefit your skin?<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Exfoliating can improve the appearance of your skin in\r\nseveral ways.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>According to the American Academy of Dermatology,\r\nexfoliation can leave your skin looking brighter and improve the effectiveness\r\nof topical skin care products by enhancing absorption.

You may already be\r\nusing a physical exfoliant \u2014 cleansing scrubs, body brushes, and loofahs are\r\nall common methods. The biggest advantage to physical exfoliation is the ease\r\nof access.

There are\r\nscrubs for your face, body, and feet. You can also find options for different\r\nskin types.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Here are some things to keep in mind when selecting a\r\nproduct:<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Check the scope. You should\r\nnever use a scrub meant for your body on your face. Body scrubs are generally\r\nharsher and may tear delicate facial tissue.<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Use one product at a time. Although\r\nit may be tempting to buy a full set of products, you shouldn\u2019t use more than\r\none exfoliant at a time. Using multiple exfoliating products on the same area\r\nof skin can damage the skin and result in unwanted side effects.<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Switch products out. You\r\nmay need to cycle through different products as your skin care needs change.\r\nFor example: If your skin has become oily, consider using a product with\r\ncharcoal.<\/span><a name=\"chemical-exfoliation\"><\/a><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>What to expect from chemical exfoliation<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>This method uses different chemicals, including hydroxy\r\nacids and retinol, with enzymes to renew your skin.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>While DIY and OTC scrubs can help enhance your skin\u2019s\r\nappearance, chemical exfoliation can offer more dramatic results.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>As with physical exfoliation, chemical exfoliation can\r\nirritate the skin if done incorrectly. If you\u2019re unsure about how to\r\nincorporate a chemical product into your routine, see a dermatologist or other\r\nhealthcare provider for guidance.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs)<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            AHAs are a group of water-soluble acids typically derived\r\nfrom sugary fruits. Popular AHAs include:<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>glycolic acid, which comes from\r\nsugar cane<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Lactic acid, which is found in\r\nmilk and pickled vegetables<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>citric acid, found in citrus\r\nfruits<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>tartaric acid, from grapes<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>malic acid, found in apples<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>These acids help peel away the surface of your skin so that\r\nnew, more evenly pigmented skin cells may generate and take their place.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Depending on the type, AHAs may also help with:<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>mild hyper pigmentation like\r\nage spots, melasma, and scars<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>enlarged pores<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>fine lines and surface wrinkles<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>uneven skin tone<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Beta hydroxyl acids (BHAs)<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>BHAs, on the other hand, are oil-soluble. These acids go\r\ndeep into your hair follicles to dry out excess oils and dead skin cells to\r\nunclog your pores. Because of this, BHA products are primarily used to treat\r\nacne and sun damage. Salicylic acid is the most common BHA. It\u2019s well known as\r\nan acne treatment, but it can also help calm general redness and inflammation.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Retinoid<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Retinoid are a class of medications derived from vitamin A.\r\nThey\u2019re used to soothe sun-damaged skin, minimize signs of aging, and treat acne.\r\nThey work by protecting your skin from free radicals and promoting collagen\r\nproduction.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>There are several topical retinoid available, including:<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>retinol<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>adapalene<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>alitretinoin<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>tretinoin<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>bexarotene<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>tazarotene<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Retinoid vary in concentration. If OTC options aren\u2019t\r\nworking, talk to a dermatologist. They may be able to prescribe a stronger\r\nformula.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span><a name=\"how-to-choose-an-exfoliant\">What works best for my\r\nskin type?<\/span><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Choosing the right exfoliating technique for your skin type\r\nwill minimize your risk of irritation and help you achieve the best possible\r\nresult.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Sensitive<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            If your skin generally stings or is otherwise irritated\r\nafter using new products, it\u2019s considered sensitive. BHAs are typically less\r\nirritating than other chemical or physical exfoliants.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>In some cases, sensitive skin is a symptom of an underlying\r\ncondition. You should always talk to a dermatologist or other healthcare\r\nprovider before using new products if you have conditions such as\r\neczema and rosacea.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Normal<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            Normal skin is clear and not easily irritated. Many people\r\nwho have \u201cnormal\u201d skin find that they can try any exfoliating technique or\r\nproduct without experiencing adverse effects. It ultimately comes down to\r\npersonal preference.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Dry<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            Dry skin is flaky or rough. AHAs such as glycolic acid\r\ncan break through the surface layer of your skin, allowing your moisturizer to\r\nhydrate your new skin cells more effectively.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Oily<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            Oily skin appears shiny and feels greasy. People with\r\noily skin are often able to use stronger chemical and physical exfoliators,\r\nsuch as motorized brushes. Store bought and DIY scrubs may also be a good\r\noption.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Combination<\/b><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            Combination skin is characterized by a mix of oily and dry\r\nsections . You should focus on each area individually and alternate\r\nproducts as needed. For example, you may be able to use a chemical exfoliator\r\nor scrub on oily areas one day and a low-level AHA on dry areas the next day.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Acne-prone<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>If you\u2019re prone to breakouts or have mild to moderate acne,\r\nlook for products containing retinoid, salicylic acid, or glycolic acid.<\/span><a name=\"faqs\"><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Common questions<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Here are the answers to some common questions about\r\nexfoliating.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>When should I exfoliate?<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            It all comes down to personal preference and your daily\r\nroutine. For example, if you find your skin looks dull in the morning,\r\nexfoliating before you start your day may be beneficial. On the other hand,\r\nexfoliating at night can help remove any lingering makeup or other debris. If\r\nyou use a medicated product for a skin condition, you should space out the time\r\nbetween that product and exfoliating. Avoid exfoliating if you have cuts or\r\nopen sores on your skin.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>How often should I exfoliate?<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>If you have oily skin, you can exfoliate as often as needed.\r\nThis may be daily, every other day, or less frequent. For all other skin types,\r\nyou should limit at-home exfoliating to once or twice a week.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>What do I do if I have a bad reaction?<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            If possible, wash the offending product from your skin using\r\nroom temperature water and mild cleanser. You should avoid using makeup or\r\nother products on the area until the irritation clears. Taking an OTC\r\nantihistamine may help relieve redness and itching. Seek emergency medical\r\nattention if you begin to experience severe symptoms of allergic reaction. <\/span><\/p>This\r\nincludes:<\/span> <\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            Shortness of breath<\/span> <\/span>tongue, throat, or facial\r\nswelling <\/span>tightness in your lungs<\/span> <\/span>chest pain<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>What\u2019s the deal with micro beads?<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            Micro beads used to be a staple ingredient in exfoliating\r\nscrubs. After much debate, many states have banned trusted source the\r\nuse of micro beads because they go down the drain and contaminate the water\r\nsupply. If you see a micro bead product on the shelves, keep looking. There are\r\nother ways to effectively exfoliate your skin.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Can I use a body-specific product on my face and vice versa?<\/span><\/p>            You shouldn\u2019t. Scrubs and other exfoliating products\r\ndesigned for your body tend to be more aggressive than products designed for\r\nyour face. Your facial tissue is more delicate than, say, the skin on your arms\r\nand legs. Using such a product on your face can result in cuts and other\r\nirritation. Using a facial exfoliator on your body probably won\u2019t cause any\r\nharm, but the formula may not be strong enough to produce the results you\u2019re\r\nlooking for.<\/span> <\/p><a name=\"professional-exfoliation\"><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Should I\r\nconsider professional exfoliation?<\/span><\/p>             <\/span>This depends on your individual skin care needs and what you\u2019re hoping to get\r\nout of exfoliating. A certified dermatologist can help you choose the best\r\nmethod or product for your skin.<\/span> <\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Professional exfoliation methods include:<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Body scrubs. Professional\r\nscrubs typically contain different materials than OTC versions.<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>            Chemical peels. The key\r\ndifference between home and professional peels is the acid concentration.\r\nProfessional peels are stronger and may be used alongside other prescription\r\ntopicals for maximum effect.<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Dermaplaning. Your provider\r\nwill use a scalpel blade to remove dead skin and baby hairs from you face and\r\nneck.<\/span><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span>Microdermabrasion. Your\r\nprovider will use fine crystals or a special rough-tipped tool to exfoliate the\r\nskin and a vacuum to remove dead skin cells.<\/span><\/span><\/p>The Bottom line:<\/span><\/p>            Whether you should stick to DIY scrubs, opt for OTC products, or seek out\r\nprofessional treatments ultimately depends on your individual skin care needs.\r\nIf you have an underlying skin care condition or are unsure about where to\r\nstart, make an appointment with a dermatologist or other healthcare provider.\r\nThey can walk you through your options and help you develop a skin care routine\r\nsuited for your individual goals and lifestyle.<\/span> <\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/span><o:p> <\/span><\/o:p><\/p>","created_at":"2020-08-03 09:51:37","slug":"\ufeffEXFOLIATING-:-Dead-Skin-Treatment-Tips-7","updated_at":"2021-08-02 11:20:15"},{"id":8,"title":"Skin Care Tips","image":"blog-2020-08-04-20-20-53.jpg","description":"Pore Minimize:<\/span><\/p>There are two types of pores .
