Dermatologists emphasize the importance of exfoliation, as the build-up of dead skin cells can lead to a dull and congested complexion. By removing this layer of dead skin, you encourage cell renewal, improve blood circulation, and boost collagen production, resulting in a more youthful and radiant appearance. Exfoliation also prepares your skin to better absorb the beneficial ingredients in your skincare products.
