What is Glycolic Acid?
Glycolic acid is the smallest a-hydroxy acid (AHA). It appears in the form of a colorless, odorless and hydroscopic crystalline solid that is highly soluble in water and related solvents. Glycolic acid is associated with sugar-crops and is isolated from sugarcane, sugar beets, pineapple, canteloupe, and unripe grapes.
What are the Benefits?
Improves the skin's appearance and texture.
reduces wrinkles
reduces acne scarring
reduces hyperpigmentation
reduces age spots
reduces pore size
improves many other skin conditions.
How Does it Work?
Once applied, glycolic acid reacts with the upper layer of the epidermis, weakening the binding properties of the lipids that hold the dead skin cells together. This allows the outer skin to "dissolve" revealing the underlying, healthier, smoother, brighter-looking skin.
Glycolic acid works as an exfoliating agent because of its high acidity but easy solubility. When placed on the skin as part of an exfoliating cream or gel, glycolic acid goes under the damaged upper layers of skin and destroys the 'glue' which holds dead skin to the surface. As this dead skin is chemically burned off, the other ingredients carry the individual flakes away and a water rinse neutralizes the remaining acid. The result is a much-smoother skin surface and a more youthful appearance.
Which Peel Should I Use?
10% and 20% - Level 1 - Beginners
30% and 40% - Level 2 - Experienced
50% - Level 3 - Advanced
Any Warnings?
Cosmetic exfoliants and moisturizers containing glycolic acid may leave the user's skin especially sensitive to the sun, so many skin care experts recommend using a sunscreen after exfoliating with glycolic acid.
Quite often after a chemical peel, your skin will look as if it were extremely sunburned. Several days of recovery are often necessary for a complete recovery from a glycolic acid peel. Proponents of glycolic acid say that the process may appear dangerous or unsightly, but the results are worth the temporary discomfort.
Who should not use a Glycolic Peel?
Any one under the age of 18
Women who are Pregnant or Breast Feeding
Any one with Active Keloids
Any one using Accutane
Any one with Herpes
Any one undergoing chemotherapy or radiation
