How frequently should clients with oily skin exfoliate?

Clients with oily skin should exfoliate 1-2 times per week to effectively manage excess oil production and remove dead skin cells without overdoing it. This frequency allows for the removal of buildup that can lead to clogged pores and breakouts, while also ensuring that the skin does not become irritated or overly sensitized, which can happen if exfoliation is done too frequently.

Choosing this frequency helps maintain the skin's balance, promoting a smoother texture and a clearer complexion. Frequent exfoliation beyond this recommended range can strip the skin of its natural oils, potentially prompting the skin to produce even more oil as a compensatory mechanism. Therefore, 1-2 times per week is a balanced approach that provides benefits without adverse effects.
