The Solution

Exfoliation is a crucial step in any skincare routine. It helps to remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and reveal fresh, glowing skin. Whether you have oily, dry, combination, or sensitive skin, exfoliation can benefit all skin types by improving texture, boosting cell turnover, and enhancing the effectiveness of other skincare products. Regular exfoliation can help reduce acne breakouts, minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, boost radiance, and even out skin tone. It also allows for better absorption of serums and moisturizers, increasing the efficacy of your skincare products.

One of the most effective ways to exfoliate is through using top-rated facial exfoliators and liquid chemical exfoliants such as alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs). AHAs, like glycolic and lactic acid, work by dissolving the bonds between dead skin cells, revealing smoother and brighter skin. The Solution is an alpha hydroxy acid that gently exfoliates to reveal more even and radiant-looking skin. Make sure to hydrate the skin after exfoliation by using a cream moisturizer.  Lactic acid is more hydrating than other acids, so Dr. Rossi DERM MD has encapsulated lactic acid for better moisturizing properties.

Most skin types should exfoliate one to two times per week. This frequency enables the removal of dead skin cells without overly irritating or sensitizing the skin. For those with sensitive skin or conditions such as rosacea or eczema, a gentler exfoliation method, such as using a mild chemical exfoliant, may be needed.
