A Glycolic peel is an exfoliating treatment using glycolic acid, which is derived from sugarcane, to loosen and remove superficial dead skin cells to reveal your healthier, smoother, underlying skin. Glycolic peels are best to minimize fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, discoloration, and acne and will also greatly improve the overall texture and glow of your skin. Depending upon the strength of the peel and ability for your skin to peel, you may experience mild to moderate peeling for 5-7 days.
