40% Glycolic Acid Peel (Buffered)
Our 40% Buffered Glycolic Acid home peel has a 1.28 pH, the perfect balance for a mild to medium strength home skin peel. 40% Buffered Glycolic Acid reaches the deep layers of skin, promoting new collagen and stimulating elastin, which encourages skin to become tighter and firmer. The exfoliating effect of the AHA acid simultaneously yields increased skin tissue hydration as a result of the new plump dermis capacity to bind water.
Glycolic Acid, is an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), which is a non-toxic chemical exfoliant naturally found in sugar beets, unripe grapes and sugarcane. It dissolves the uppermost layer of the epidermis that then reveals fresh, smooth skin.
This skin peel is a buffered glycolic, making it ideal for home use. We also carry a full line of professional strength medical grade unbuffered glycolic acid for more experienced users.
