surface dependent mesh or a smooth surface?

Hello,

I use Plot3D to plot a function which is exponential in one region and 
almost a constant in the other. If I specify PlotPoints ->50 (say), costant 
region is well presented but there are too few points when the surface is 
very sharp.

Is there any possibility to get a smooth surface everywhere? As far as I 
know MaxBend, which defines a maximum possible angle between succesive line 
segments, can help for ContourPlot3D but in the case of a Plot3D?

Thank you in advance for useful comments,

Veniamin
