Beneficial for improving the appearance of dry skin, dark spots, visibly smoothing facial lines, and enhancing skin radiance. Trained professionals utilize Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid to support accelerated skin renewal and improve the appearance of aging skin.

Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) are exfoliating compounds. They are often associated with fruit and food sources, which is why they are sometimes referred to as fruit acids. For example, Malic Acid is associated with apples, Citric Acid with citrus fruits, and Glycolic Acid with sugar cane. Lactic Acid is associated with milk fermentation and Tartaric Acid with fermented grapes (wine).

What Are Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs)? AHAs are exfoliating compounds that help loosen the bonds between surface skin cells, promoting visible radiance and smoothness. Lactic Acid works as an exfoliating agent because of its gentle nature and high affinity for attracting moisture.

Benefits Of Lactic Acid Peels:

• Visibly smooths the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
• Enhances overall complexion radiance and brightness.
• Promotes a smoother, softer texture to the skin’s surface.
• Visibly improves the look of dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
• Helps reduce the visible appearance of enlarged pores and congested skin.
• Revitalizes the look of dull, dry, and lackluster skin.

I used the glycolic/ Lactic acid with a combination of essential oils & hydrating serums to make the perfect peel for my skin. Works like a charm! Its gel like consistency allows for more even spread

•:*¨¨*:•. •:*¨¨*:•.– This Item has the best of two worlds- JO Ann Wood- April 10, 2015 (verified purchase)
I had peelings done before glycol of 33% and know how to apply product. This item has the best of two worlds. Glycolic and lactic. I have used it once a week for 3 weeks now and you can tell the difference in the first use. Now my sun and acne marks are getting lighter. My skin feels better and brighter. It comes with instructions and gauze to apply. Not for first timers.

•:*¨¨*:• •:*¨¨*:•..– Excellent Product!!! – Angel Smith- April 5, 2015 (verified purchase)
I have been using this product for a couple of years now & it works well for me. The only issue is you have to be careful using it or you will damage (burn) your skin if you leave it on too long. If that happens I find that Shea butter helps with the healing process and it will return to normal.

I started using this product once a week, then 2 to 3 times a week. I also wash my face with black soap and I also use 4% hydroquinone cream every night before bed. After my face cleared up with all the blemishes, I stopped using all of the products and 2 months later I started getting acne breakouts again so now I just use these products as part of my daily regimen and I haven’t had any acne breakouts.

Which Chemical Peel Should I use?

Lactic Acid Skin PeelBeginners & All Skin Types: This is an ideal first-time peel, offering gentle exfoliation that helps promote a brighter, more even-toned complexion. Requires minimal downtime.

Glycolic Acid Peel (Buffered)First-time Glycolic Users: Excellent for improving the visible appearance of aging signs, including smoothing the look of fine lines, enlarged pores, and dry texture.

Salicylic Acid Peel (BHA)Oily Skin & Congestion: This peel helps clear congested pores and slough away excess oil and surface debris. Can be used more frequently than AHAs with less risk of surface irritation. Recommended for those with prior peel experience.

Glycolic Acid Peel (Unbuffered)Experienced AHA Users: This is a low-pH, higher-strength Glycolic Acid peel. It should only be used by those who have successfully used Lactic and Buffered Glycolic peels and can tolerate a stronger treatment. Great for those with oily skin and textural concerns.

Glycolic/Lactic Combination PeelAdvanced Users & Mature Skin: This combination provides the dual benefits of deep Glycolic exfoliation and Lactic moisture support. Recommended only for experienced users looking to visibly diminish advanced signs of aging and textured skin.
