Glycolic Acid Facial Peels

What is Glycolic Acid?

Don't worry, you're not going to get a chemistry lesson. Just a few facts about fruit the you may find surprising. It all begins with Alpha Hydroxies- a group of fruit extracts used since ancient times to beautify the skin.

Glycolic acid? It's derived from sugar cane and has more beautifying effects on the skin than any other fruit acid. But it had always been a little too irritating to be used daily. We created a unique form of Glycolic acid that actually enhances the beautifying benefits and decreases the irritation. You see, Glycolic acid helps the skin retain more moisture. Make it smoother. Healthier. Younger-looking. For more details, read on. And discover how Glycolic acid can help give you the beautiful skin you've always wanted.

Some Things Are Personal

What's true about snowflakes is also true about skin types. No two are exactly the same. Glycolic acid will help minimize the appearance of fine facial lines. Improve your skin's tone and texture. Refine large pores. Even out pigmentation and other irregularities. And it will do any or all of that in a cosmetic program specifically suited to you. Now, you probably already know whether your skin is dry or oily. Sensitive or not-so-sensitive. But for starters, we recommend you consult your physician for a thorough skin examination. That accomplished, you'll be well on your way to the three easy steps of the Glycolic acid program.

The Glycolic acid Facial

Sit back and relax. Because the first step in the program is performed by a trained specialist in your physician's office. You'll receive personal attention to your skin type, as your physician will customize the strength of your facial solution. Here's what to expect: Your facial is applied for one to three minutes and rinsed off with cool water. Simple, isn't it? The only sensation you may feel is a slight tingling for a few minutes. What truly lasts is the beautiful effect on your skin. It should look better and feel softer almost immediately after your first facial. For the best results, we generally recommend a series of six facials at weekly or bi-weekly intervals, followed by a monthly maintenance facial.
