Glycolic peels utilize glycolic acid, an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), to exfoliate the skin. The strength of the peel, ranging from 20% to 70%, determines its depth and effectiveness. Lower concentrations (20-30%) are often used for superficial exfoliation, while higher concentrations (50-70%) can penetrate deeper for more significant results. These peels are used to address various skin concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven skin tone.
• 20-30%: Suitable for beginners, sensitive skin, and those seeking mild exfoliation and skin brightening.
• 30-50%: Effective for addressing moderate skin concerns like sun damage, fine lines, and mild acne scars.
• 50-70%: Used for more advanced skin concerns, including deeper wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation, requiring more experienced practitioners.
