While Clarisonic brushes should be gentle enough for using two times a day, Dr. Robb stresses to do what works for you. Clarisonics don't actually exfoliate the skin you'll need to add an exfoliating cleanser to do that , but rather "works with skin's natural elasticity to gently rock dirt and oil out of the pores," he explains.
Otherwise, it's totally safe to use whenever you wash your face! While all nine brush heads are pretty great trust me; I've tried them all , it's definitely crucial to stick to the one that's best for your skin type. Robb recommends talking to a dermatologist professional or retail representative if you're on the fence about which to buy.
Robb emphasizes. I know that scrubby feeling is great, but pressing too hard, or using the brush as a scrubber, will just block the oscillation motion, which means the device won't be able to do it's job. The Clarisonic site makes it pretty clear that they want you to change the brush heads every three months, but it's not because of any nasty bacteria getting into the device.
Robb explains. My problem with Clarisonic is not the brush itself because the exfoliating benefits are very important, but I have a serious concern with how often they recommend using it. While it may feel gentle enough to use twice a day, you have to understand how exfoliation affects the skin. Clarisonic brush, facial scrubs, acids, enzymes, washcloths or whatever form you get yours in can cause skin damage and may lead to premature aging if used too frequently.
This allows moisture to seep out of the cells more easily, causing them to get dehydrated. Come to find out, the dryness started to occur once they introduced the Clarisonic brush! Discontinuing use of Clarisonic, or cutting back its use to a few times a week quickly returned their skin to a healthy, balanced and hydrated state. Exfoliating too aggressively and too often can create inflammation even if not visible setting off a response to create free radicals.
See this amazing experiment I did when I applied a vitamin C skin serum to an apple! You do not want to exfoliate to the point of destroying healthy, living cells. When you give the skin trauma, the skin goes into repair mode and stimulates cellular regeneration.
This is the last thing that any skin needs that wants to stay looking youthful and fresh. However, professional chemical peels done a few times a year do cause trauma to the skin, and this is beneficial for the stimulation of collagen.
Your skin likes boosts a little wake-up call , just not all the time. You must use caution with physical exfoliants like Clarisonic, washcloths and facial scrubs. For skin that is extremely reactive to stimulation deeper skin tones and for those prone to melasma , you need to treat your skin gently to avoid post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation resulting in increased skin discoloration.
This is also why I suggest using non-drying, sulfate-free cleansers. Cleanser recommendations: only use sulfate-free gel cleansers. Find out which cleanser is right for you by taking our Skin Type Quiz or schedule a virtual consultation to get customized advice in person, over the phone or online via Skype or FaceTime. I discuss this in greater detail in my complete guide to exfoliation.
However, I suggest using an acid serum applied to the skin several nights a week. Always use a moisturizer over the serum to seal the benefits into the skin. The idea here is that using an acid serum will dissolve the dry skin cells while a physical exfoliant like a scrub or Clarisonic will lift off the dry skin cells.
They both work differently but both are very beneficial for the health and clarity of the skin. A professional chemical peel should be performed every other month and an at-home professional-strength peel recommended exfoliating peel: Triple Berry Smoothing Peel should be used once a week.
And just for the record, I actually did purchase a Clarisonic brush and have used it on my skin. But if you love it and it works well for your skin, then by all means, use it — but in moderation.

A company insider told us she likes to linger on her shoulders and neck when she's finished buffing since the vibration helps loosen up sore muscles.
Speaking of massage, don't forget the power of facial massage , too—all that sonic vibration helps stimulate blood flow and cell regeneration for your complexion, which helps slow the aging process and lessen the appearance of fine lines. It removes everything from sunscreen to dirt, and oil, and visibly shrinks your pores.
