There are 3 types of exfoliation that are essential for having great skin and anti aging benefits. 2 of which you can do for yourself in the comfort of your own home. But in order to do so I suggest visiting a professional to make sure you are using what is best for your skin, if you’re not you can do more damage then good!
The first type of exfoliation that you can do at home is “Physical Exfoliation” this entails usings products that have a rougher texture which may include; beads, salt, sugar scrubs ect. I also carry a wonderful aggressive sponge called “ViaBuff” the most amazing item to wash your face with!
The second type of exfoliation is “Chemical Exfoliation” this one you can do at home to an extent. You would use products that contain popular acids which may imclude cleansers and topical ointments. Such as glycolics, salicylic, retinols are amongst a few popular ones that you will see often. Please leave the chemical peels up to the professionals!
The third type of exfoliation is “Mechanical Exfoliation” this is where you need a professional and you will notice a HUGE difference. Pictured below is one form which is Dermaplaning. Other forms of mechanical exfoliation include microdermabrasion, chemical peels, dermawand… Just to name a few popular ones!
