How to exfoliate your skin? But let us understand like do you really need to exfoliate the skin? So let us first understand that aspect. Skin is a structure which has both living layer as well as a dead layer and the cells are programmed such that the living cells over a period of time they go up and they become dead and they are shedding. So this is a continuous process which is happening and the skin is getting renewed on its own every four to six weeks. So if the skin itself is getting renewed regularly then what is the need for exfoliation? If something is stuck, it is not going then we need to exfoliate it aggressively. If at all it is getting renewed then why do you need to exfoliate? So exfoliation basically when we say is to take care of the dead skin. So the outermost dead layer of the skin usually it tends to shed off on its own spontaneously however in some individuals or during some seasons the skin is much more dry, rough, it is stuck so then it is not smooth. So in those situations probably will have to exfoliate the skin. So whenever we are exfoliating the skin we are actually removing the dead skin layer. So one thing to understand is your dead skin layer is attached to the underlying living layer of the skin. If you exfoliate intensively sometimes it can give rise to irritation. For this reason we do not advise exfoliation at home. However you have an urge to remove the dead skin to achieve a smooth soft skin so I deny that fact I don't say that it's wrong but you need to be judicious and safe in doing that. How can you do that? Simplest thing is start using a moisturizer and a Vitamin A based cream or creams which contain Alpha hydroxy acids like glycolic acid. So there are a lot of creams which contain these molecules in the market. This is much safer and better than using something which is more abrasive to exfoliate the skin. So do not go ahead with scrubbing or using some peeling off masks rather start using these creams which will exfoliate in a very smooth and non-traumatic manner. So there are creams which contain urea with glycolic acid for your body surface areas, for your palms and soles. You get creams which contain retinol or glycolic acid which can be used for the face. However, as I told you that it causes removal of the dead skin and if it is aggressive it can also cause damage to the living layers of the skin, so be gentle use a cream which is not very drying to the skin and whenever you're using any exfoliating creams please apply a sunscreen and protect your skin because if you do not protect then it tends to cause more damage. Exfoliation at Clinic is done under supervision of a dermatologist. So how do we do? The age-old microdermabrasion which was being done where the particles are bombarded on to the skin at high velocity and they help in removing the dead skin. So that is one aspect. Nowadays we use other techniques to do with it. It can be as simple as a medifacial like a Hydra facial thing where there is some amount of suction. There is amount of solution which hits your skin at high velocity and removes your dead skin. Or it can be by using peels. So there are a lot of peel procedures which help in exfoliating the skin atraumatically. These things we do or we do a resurfacing procedure like a laser or a tixel. So exfoliating the skin can be done either with your products or with procedures which are minimally abrasive or it can be through an energy based device or it can be through the peeling agents. So these things can be done under the supervision of a dermatologist whereas the cream application you can do always at home. Play safe when you want to have a good skin. Don't take too much of risk because treating a damage is much more difficult than improving a natural skin. To know more, watch the video.
