Why it Happens

While new cells turn over, on average, every 28 days, everyone is different. It’s possible that your cells turn over slower and thus build up over time. It could also be from a lack of exfoliation.

How to Treat

How to Treat

01

Use A Physical And/Or Chemical Exfoliant

Rougher texture can benefit from both. For more resilient skin, opt for something with a physical, scrub-like consistency. To treat sensitive skin types, or simply for a gentler option, try a fruit enzyme-based exfoliant to smoothly digest dead skin cells.

02

Boost Hydration With Toner

Add a toner to help hydrating products absorb deeper and work harder

03

Apply A Peel Weekly

At-home peels are less potent than pro treatments, but still deliver great results. If your skin is experiencing textural concerns, this can be a great way to take your exfoliation to the next level and help move along layers to bring smoother skin to the surface.

04

Use A Nourishing Mask

To rebuild a healthy barrier, an oil-based mask can help increase softness, suppleness, and flexibility of the skin. Ingredients to look out for are jojoba oil, which is very similar in composition to our own sebum, and shea butter, a rich, skin-softening emollient.

• FROM THE TREATMENT ROOM •

We often recommend microdermabrasion to those dealing with rough texture. By resurfacing texture and targeting specific areas of buildup, it's one of the most advanced forms of exfoliation. Try the Doctor's Scrub Microderm Exfoliator by Goldfaden MD for an effective at-home treatment.
