Hi Lisa. I am not an expert, but I would say that the difference is that exfoliating works to remove the excess top layers of skin, whereas picking causes skin eruptions right at the sight of the bump. If you scrub vigorously with something harsh, I imagine that they might start to be the same thing, but I don't believe that we should scrub vigorously at these. I apply a small amount of pressure when I wash with a body puff. It causes a small amount of redness, but does not break open any skin. Well, that is my take on that! Good luck!

No exfoliating is gradually taking the rough,tougher skin down to the new skin. Taking off the dead skin.
