Geometry > UnCrease to remove creases, then move back to highest res. Divide a few times, then view lowest res. New creases can be added to specific edges as necessary. Creases are automatically created at polygroup edges. #ZBRUSH ZSPHERE SKIN#
Insert newly created skin made from ZSphere. Once satisfied with topology and thickness, Adaptive Skin > Make Adaptive Skin. Set thickness with Topology > Skin Thickness, then Preview again. This will generate a low res mesh using topology as base frame. Preview using Adaptive Skin > Preview (Shortcut A key). Click on canvas outside of geo to restart new sequence of topology points. Draw topology by snapping points over geo. 
Resize ZSphere to min size or hide inside geo to be retopo'ed. Insert ZSphere and set subtool to active. Retopology Workflow ZSphere Retopology Workflow Below is a quick visual documentation and overview of the ZScene Manager plugin for ZBrush. However, as soon as I integrated Z Scene Manager into my workflow, the subtool management was exponentially expedited and has allowed me to really focus more on the other functions within ZBrush and the modelling tasks. While first learning ZBrush, the traditional UI made it somewhat challenging to adjust, but I learned the underlying structure of how the tools and subtools worked within ZBrush. Right-clicking within the plugin window expands to a lot of other functions, such as renaming, grouping, selecting, and several others. This plugin takes the same information of subtools in the project and outlines them with relevant information, such as visibility, polycount, Boolean state, UV mapping, texture, symmetry, and many others. 
Although ZBrush has this functionality the traditional ZBrush UI can be a bit cumbersome at times and particularly when accustomed to other layer-based tools.

The plugin has a free and paid version available. The plugin has a clear UI and easy-to-use functionality, supplementing ZBrush very well. This is an effective tool and subtool management dashboard that can be used within ZBrush. Ultimately, it has really made my use of ZBrush so much more enjoyable by having it take on the management of these ZBrush elements and its user interface make them quick to apply to any active ZBrush project. Another part of this tool that I appreciate is that there can be multiple paths set up to different file and folder locations where the brushes, alphas, or models are being stored, so they don't all necessarily need to be located in a single, predefined location. It also has the option to categorize content with tags, folders, and naming conventions. But through the XMD ToolBox, I'm able to access any of the brushes, alphas, and models in my collection with a click and they become active in the ZBrush session. When I first started using ZBrush, I quickly began collecting a large number of brushes and alphas, but it became tedious manually updating them and coordinating them through the default ZBrush Lightbox methodology. This tool is a phenomenal support system for ZBrush and I highly recommend it to organize brushes, alphas, and models.
