Glycolic Acid
What are Glycolic Acid
A Glycolic Acid Peel at Aesthetic Design is a gentle yet effective superficial chemical peel derived from sugar cane. As a type of Alpha-Hydroxy Acid (AHA), it works by exfoliating the outermost layer of the skin. This process effectively dissolves the bonds between dead skin cells, revealing a smoother, brighter, and more radiant complexion with minimal downtime, making it an ideal “lunchtime” peel.
Where can Glycolic Acid be used?
Glycolic Acid Peels are safe and effective for use on the entire face, neck, and chest. They are particularly beneficial for treating dullness and uneven texture on the cheeks and forehead, fine lines around the eyes and mouth, and mild acne or congestion on the T-zone. This versatile peel is excellent for overall skin brightening and refreshing your complexion.
