Exfoliation involves removing the oldest dead skin cells on the outer surface of the skin. Exfoliation is involved in all facials, during microdermabrasion or chemical peeling. Exfoliation can be achieved by mechanical or chemical means.

Histori

Credit was given to the ancient Egyptians for the practice of exfoliation. In the Middle Ages, wine was used as a chemical exfoliant, with tartaric acid as an active agent. In Asia, peeling practices began hundreds of years ago. The etymology of the word "exfoliate" comes from the Latin exfoliare (for stripping of leaves).

Type

Exfoliation is achieved either mechanically or by chemical means.

Mechanical

This process involves scrubbing the skin physically with an abrasive material. Mechanical exfoliants include microfiber fabrics, peeling adhesive sheets, micro face bead scrubs, crepe paper, crushed apricot kernels or almond shells, sugar or salt crystals, pumice, and abrasive materials such as sponges, loofahs, brushes, and fingernails. Facial scrubs are available in products that are freely sold for applications by users. People with dry skin should avoid skin peels that include most of the pumice, or crushed volcanic rocks. Pumice stone is considered a good material to peel the skin of the foot. Microdermabrasion is another mechanical method for exfoliation.

Chemistry

Chemical exfoliants include scrubs containing salicylic acid, glycolic acid, fruit enzymes, citric acid, or malic acid which can be applied in high concentrations by medical professionals, or in lower concentrations in products sold freely. Chemical exfoliation may involve the use of products containing alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxide acids (BHAs), or enzymes that serve to loosen glue-like substances that hold cells together, allowing them to escape. Exfoliate of this type is recommended for people who treat acne. In beauty spa treatments in continental Europe, the wine-producing properties of wine are exploited in vinotherapy practices that are becoming increasingly popular.

With hair removal

Some methods of hair removal also peel the skin.

  • Waxing is a mechanical process done with the aim of picking hair, but also serves as a mechanical exfoliation. It can be done every two to eight weeks. It's not done as often as it peels off. So, it does not completely replace the skin exfoliating regimen, but it can replace normal sessions in the regimen.
  • Nair is an example of a chemical hair removal product that also serves as a chemical exfoliator. It is used more often than waxing (once a week, not once a month) because it only destroys part of the hair under the skin, rather than destroying all roots such as waxing. Using it every week can replace the weekly exfoliant regime. This is a very aggressive and unusable chemical on the face, so other exfoliants should be used on the face.
  • Wetshaving also has exfoliating properties: first, the act of moving the shaving brush firmly across the face washing the face and lifting the dead skin at the same time. After applying the foam with the brush, the use of a double-edged razor or a straight razor removes dead skin just because the razor is dragged much closer to the skin, and removes dead skin more effectively than the cartridge or electric razor./li>

Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a medical procedure that peels the skin (or epidermis) by removing dead skin and vellus hair (peach fuzz). This procedure is performed by a beautician, who will gently slide the scalpel on the skin, removing the outermost layer of skin cells and hair from the face. As a by-product, it also shaves all the hair, but the hair will grow back on the same level and texture as before. This procedure involves the use of a 10 inch (25 cm) scalpel that is curved into a sharp point. The blades are used on a clean dry skin on the forehead, cheeks, chin, nose and neck.

Disadvantages

One of the disadvantages of exfoliation is the high prices of some of the products and methods used to achieve them. Exfoliation will cause some initial redness on the skin. Near the ends of chemical skin, the skin will freeze, with colors ranging from bright white to gray on the surface of the skin. Excessive exfoliation can easily leave dry skin and irritation which is therefore advised not to exfoliate more than twice a week.

The impact of the marine environment from microbeads

Microbead particles used in mechanical exfoliation are too small (less than 1mm) to be captured by waste work, so tons of microbeads are released into the environment, damaging the marine ecosystem. As a result, in June 2014 the US state of Illinois became the first to ban the use of microbeads, and cosmetics manufacturers such as L'Oreal, Johnson & amp; Johnson, and Colgate agree to use more natural ingredients.
