Dealing with dry, flaky skin can be irritating, regardless of whether it’s a major concern or not. The key to smooth and healthy skin is regular exfoliation. So, let’s find out how you can remove the dead skin cells from your face
The outermost layer of your skin (epidermis) is naturally shed about every 30 days, uncovering new healthy cells each time. But sometimes dead cells may fail to completely slough off hence causing dry patches. Chemical Exfoliation involves getting rid of dead skin to allow new ones to take their place at the surface.
Before selecting an exfoliant it’s important that you know which product will work best for your specific needs without drying out natural oils or damaging any part of the epidermal barrier.
This type tends to look dull and flaky because it doesn’t have enough moisture; there might be many dry areas on this person’s body with some itching sensations accompanying them at times.
Oily skin often appears greasy or shiny due to overproduction of sebum which can lead to acne when pores get blocked by it.
Such skin is well-balanced being neither too oily nor too dry having a pH level ranging from 4 -7.
This kind reacts adversely to numerous skin care products plus sensitive skin may easily blush following temperature changes as well as consumption of spicy foods.

At-home methods include scrubs, creams and exfoliants while dermatologists can also perform this procedure in their centers with far greater precision using specialized tools and products
This is a technique where tools like face scrubs are used for physically exfoliating the skin.
Absorbs oils, speeds up cell turnover and of course gets rid of dead skin. Mix with water to make a paste then apply on the face.
Use a soft bristle brush over dampened skin so as to brush away flakes gently but thoroughly.
Take clean wet clothes and rub them in circles around areas with flaky patches till they become smooth again. This technique can be ideal only if you have normal-type skin.
The textures and ingredient concentrations in homemade exfoliants may vary from batch to batch thereby causing uneven exfoliation that can harm the skin.
When not properly measured, one may end up making very harsh homemade exfoliants that may lead to over-exfoliation hence stripping away natural oils and weakening the skin barrier.
There can be more bacteria or microorganisms and even dust particles present in environments not sanitized enough for making such products; thus making it easier for users’ skin to get infected.
Some common household items might be too harsh on sensitive skins causing irritations or allergic reactions; e.g. lemon juice being acidic while baking soda being alkaline
Homemade face scrubs lack preservatives which may lead them to go bad fast thus causing skin infections or irritations.
Most self-made facial peels do not have appropriate ph levels thereby interfering with the natural balance of our skin resulting in dryness and irritation.
They cannot be personalized effectively like those sold in stores that are designed for various types of skins – oily, dry among others because they are general purpose products.
Tar and liquid mixtures, homemade lotions, are able to be used for scrubbing which may give uneven results.
Some homemade exfoliant recipes do not have scientific support behind them so the question arises whether they work or if they are safe compared with products that have been tested by a dermatologist.
Regular application of very strong do-it-yourself skin scrubs can cause such problems as over-tenderness; getting red easily when touched even with something soft like cotton wool; permanent disturbances like scarring in worst cases
Consequently, you should not use these products over long periods on any part of your body especially the face where sensitivity levels tend to be higher than other areas .

These substances penetrate deep into the living tissues thus causing them to be sloughed off faster than usual. So there will be more turnover but since these can also cause some complications when being used on sensitive skin, a range of tests are done to ensure no adverse reactions occur due to chemical exfoliation procedure.
Chemical Peels are non-invasive treatments which use a chemical, mildly acidic active agent to gently dissolve the skin's top layers. Usually, people get this done to make the skin on their face, neck, or hands look youthful and rejuvenated.
These acids speed up cell turnover and improve skin texture. AHAs are water soluble and work on the skin surface while BHAs are oil soluble and can penetrate deeper into oily pores making them ideal for oily skin. To learn more about the differences between AHA and BHA, read our blog.
