In this short video from DermTV, Dr. Neal Schultz tackles the myth that exfoliating results in thicker skin.:
Facts about exfoliating:
- Exfoliating removes/dissolves dead skin cells on the upper layer of the epidermis.
- Dead skin cells make skin appear blotchy, matte and tired.
- Removing dead cells encourages skin to produce new "live" skin cells
- Exfoliating improves appearance of skin.
- "Callouses" are not caused by exfoliating.
Tomorrow we'll discuss when you should use an exfoliating treatment. Have you explored either physical or chemical exfoliating treatments? What was your experience?
