Cosmetic Corner: Dermatologists Weigh in on Facial Scrubs

To improve patient care and outcomes, leading dermatologists offered their recommendations on the top facial scrubs. Consideration must be given to:

• Facial Fuel Energizing Scrub
  Kiehl’s
  “This product isn’t terribly expensive and is great for men with all skin types. Patients love the mild stinging the product produces—that’s how they know it’s working!”—Gary Goldenberg, MD, New York, New York
  “It is great for women and men. It has menthol and caffeine that gives a refreshing feel to the skin and great exfoliating without excessive irritation.”—Anthony M. Rossi, MD, New York, New York

• NIA24 Physical Cleansing Scrub
  Niadyne, Inc.
  “It offers a beaded but gentle approach to a facial scrub and is highly rated by our patients and customers.”—Joel Schlessinger, MD, Omaha, Nebraska

• Olay Skin Smoothing Cream Scrub
  Proctor & Gamble
  “Effective, not expensive, and does not dry the skin.”—Antonella Tosti, MD, Miami, Florida
  “This product is inexpensive and great before applying moisturizer or after wearing makeup.”—Gary Goldenberg, MD, New York, New York
