What You Need to Know About Glycolic Acid
What is Glycolic Acid?

Made from sugar cane, Glycolic acid is the most simple and effective member of the chemical family referred to as
Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs).
For centuries, AHAs derived from plants, fruits, milk, and wine have been used as moisturizers and skin fresheners.
Put simply, Glycolic Acid speeds up the skin renewal process.

Glycolic acid works by stimulating new growth of skin and collagen by decreasing the bond between dead skin cells
on the surface. This allows dead cells to be removed gradually, leaving behind a layer of smoother and softer skin.
During a glycolic peel, a solution of glycolic acid is applied to your skin for a brief period of time and then washed
away. This solution causes several layers of the Stratum Corneum (the outer layer of skin) to dry up and peel off
gradually over a period of several days. When the older layers have peeled off, they expose a new layer of
undamaged skin.

Effective for:

  •    Acne
  •    Scars
  •    Oily Skin
  •    Blackheads/whiteheads
  •    Stretch marks
  •    Dry skin
  •    Sun damaged skin
  •    Large pores (orange peel)
  •    Blotchy pigmentation
  •    Fine wrinkles
  •    Deep ex foliation
  •    Generally improving complexion
What You Need to Know About Glycolic Acid

When clients make a choice between the most popular and current non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedures
including chemical/glycolic peels, microdermabrasion, and lasers, statistics support that chemical peels continue to
remain the preferred procedure.
Why? What exactly does glycolic acid do? What results can you expect?

Glycolic acid peels are ideal for acne, scars, fine wrinkles, and skin discoloration. Dermatologists and spas also
recommend it for dry aging skin. Why? Because as the skin ages, it becomes drier and loses elasticity.
At the same time, the skin’s ability to rejuvenate slows down. The result of these changes is skin that looks older,
flat, and non-radiant in appearance.
The older you get, the more you need to speed the rejuvenation process by increasing the rate of exfoliation and to
rebuild the structure of your skin. Doctors recommend at least 6-10 peels for best results.


Studies have shown that glycolic acid produces measurable improvement in the appearance of fine lines and
wrinkles. In one study, fine lines were improved one-third after three weeks as measured by computer analysis.
Glycolic acid peels have been documented to produce a 300% increase in the moisture content of skin after twice-
daily application for three weeks. Glycolic acid is also shown to help lighten blemishes and uneven marks on skin in
conjunction with bleaching agents such as hydroquinone.
