While ice can have some skin benefits like reducing inflammation and tightening pores, it does not directly remove dead skin cells. The sensation of "removing dead skin" might be due to the temporary tightening effect of the cold, making the skin feel smoother.
However, ice doesn't exfoliate the skin. Exfoliation requires physical or chemical methods to remove dead cells. The reference mentions that lactic acid in milk can help remove dead skin cells, but this is due to the acid's exfoliating properties, not the ice itself.
For effective removal of dead skin, consider using gentle exfoliating scrubs, chemical exfoliants, or other techniques recommended by dermatologists.
