Exfoliating Peels have been used for a long time to create an even and controlled shedding of damaged skin cells. The effect is a kind of ‘spring cleaning’ for your skin. It rejuvenates the skin, tightens it, reduces wrinkling and restores more youthful appearance.

How it works

Glycolic AHA acids exfoliate and stimulate the epidermal skin layers. This is a naturally occurring acid, derived from sugar cane plants. Glycolic acid has the smallest molecular size and weight of all the AHA’s and thus, can penetrate deeper and more effectively through the layers of the skin than any other AHA. The acid works at the base of the Stratum Corneum (upper layer of skin), dissolving the “glue” that holds these dead skin cells together. This process increases cellular turnover and improves the overall structure with a more uniform and normalized Stratum Corneum being created. Smoother, softer, skin with the lessening of fine lines and discoloration is observed, with the added benefit of reducing follicular debris and blockage.

Who is suitable

Glytone peels can help to effectively improve a wide variety of skin conditions including:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Sun damaged skin
  • Brown spots
  • Acne
  • Freckling
  • Hyper-pigmentation
  • Age spots
  • Blackheads

Procedure

Glycolic acid “peels” will not necessarily induce an actual peel. The Glycolic acid preparation will be applied to the face for an indicated time, i.e. 2 minutes, and then thoroughly removed with water and a post peel neutralizer.  The entire procedure usually takes only 10 to 15 minutes.
