EXFOLIATION

After removing the dead and damaged
skin cells through exfoliation of the skin, other anti-aging agents such
as glycolics, alpha-hydroxys, antioxidants, and collagen boosting
nutrients are better able to penetrate the skin and work more
effectively. This holds true for acne medications (like Retin-A &
topical antibiotics) as well as other types of skin lightening agents
where penetration is important. This is an additional reason why regular
exfoliation should be a part of peoples’ daily skin
routine.

WHY SKIN LOOKS AND APPEARS BETTER AFTER
EXFOLIATION

Once the dead and damaged skin cells are removed
(exfoliated) the outer layer of new skin becomes visible. This new skin
feels softer, smoother, and reflects light easier making fine lines
harder to see. The age spots and unwanted pigment are also less
noticeable because the dead skin cells containing the pigment were
removed. Exfoliation removes plugged pores, prevents the pores from
re-plugging, and allows for the release of natural oils. In addition,
regular exfoliation decreases pore size and minimizes many types of
superficial scars. All of the above contribute to making the skin look
tighter, healthier, and more youthful.

WHAT AREAS OF THE BODY
BENEFIT THE MOST FROM FREQUENT EXOFLIATION?

All areas of the
body will benefit from regular exfoliation of the skin. However, the
most obvious locations would be the face, the chest, the V of the neck
(Decollete area), exposed scalp area, and the top of the hands. These
areas show the most immediate affects of frequent
exfoliation.

WHY IT IS IMPORTANT TO REGULARLY EXFOLIATE THE
SKIN

Our skin is constantly exposed to different types of
damaging influences. There are three main categories that damaging
influences fall into.

1. 1. The first category consists of
   external factors, such as the sun, air pollution of any kind, and
   radiation (from the depletion of the ozone layer).
   

1. 2. The second category of damaging influences
   affecting the skin is natural influences. Some examples of natural
   influences are the affects of the natural aging process, normal fatigue
   that everyone experiences from time to time, and the affects of
   gravity.

1. 3. The third category of damaging
   influences that our skin is regularly exposed to is abnormal health
   influences. Abnormal health influences can be many things, such as
   dietary issues, stress, and smoking (including second hand smoke).
   Abnormal health influences are the most common and are also the easiest
   influences for an individual to have control over.
