What is Glycolic Acid Peel?
Glycolic Acid Peel is a controlled chemical exfoliation treatment designed to remove dull surface cells and improve tone, texture or congestion with a controlled peel. Individual assessment remains essential before treatment.
Treatment goal
The goal is to remove dull surface cells and improve tone, texture or congestion with a controlled peel without creating a deeper injury than the skin can safely heal.
Safety and suitability
It is generally well tolerated in suitable patients when performed by a qualified practitioner after medical screening, but no treatment is risk-free. Peel strength, contact time and neutralisation must be matched to skin type and medical history.
Temporary stinging, redness, dryness, tightness, flaking and mild sensitivity can occur. These effects are usually temporary.
Possible risks include burns, infection, prolonged redness, pigment change, scarring and cold-sore reactivation. Prompt assessment is important if unexpected symptoms develop.
