FAQ about exfoliation

What is the difference between a chemical and mechanical exfoliant?
The chemical exfoliation uses acids or enzymes to break down the bonds between dead cells, allowing them to detach from the stratum corneum, while mechanical exfoliation uses particles to physically remove them.
Is exfoliation suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, exfoliation can be suitable for sensitive skin if it is performed with gentle active ingredients like PHAs.
Can we exfoliate the skin every day?
No, this can weaken the skin barrier and cause irritations. It is preferable to exfoliate once or twice a week depending on your skin type.
Can exfoliation help to reduce skin imperfections?
Yes, exfoliation can help reduce the appearance of blemishes by unclogging pores, accelerating cell renewal, and removing dead cells from the skin's surface.
Is it possible to exfoliate your scalp?
The exfoliation of the scalp is entirely possible and allows for the removal of dead cells accumulated on the skull, which can lead to obstruction of hair follicles and a deterioration of the overall health of the scalp. It is generally recommended to be done once or twice a week.
