In our opinion every decision on how far to go with exfoliation has to be taken with caution. Any resurfacing method can produce fantastic results; however everything comes at a cost. Potential of side effects are dramatically higher than for traditional, gentle exfoliators. Also too excessive/frequent resurfacing may in the long term accelerate the ageing process of the skin as well create a thicker more open pored skin.
