Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Glycolic Peel.
A Glycolic Peel uses alpha-hydroxy glycolic acid to dissolve bonds between dead skin cells, promoting exfoliation and cellular turnover. It reduces dullness, fine lines and pigmentation. Strength and duration are customized for skin type to maximize benefits while minimizing irritation.
Frequency depends on peel strength and skin sensitivity. Typically, light peels can be repeated every 2–4 weeks, while medium peels require longer intervals. Your esthetician will create a treatment plan to balance results and skin recovery for optimal, safe outcomes.
Most clients feel mild tingling or warmth during application; stronger peels may sting briefly. Estheticians monitor and neutralize as needed for comfort. Post-treatment sensitivity is common but manageable with recommended aftercare and soothing products.
Downtime varies by peel strength: light peels often have minimal downtime with mild flaking for a few days; medium peels can cause redness and peeling for up to a week. Follow aftercare, avoid sun, and use gentle skincare to support healing.
Ideal candidates have dull, uneven skin texture, mild hyperpigmentation, or fine lines and normal to oily skin types. Sensitive, very dark, or active acne skin may need assessment; a consultation ensures appropriate strength and safety.
Before treatment, avoid retinoids, waxing and prolonged sun exposure for recommended days, and disclose medications. Aftercare includes gentle cleansing, broad-spectrum sunscreen, hydrating serums, and avoiding exfoliants and heat. Follow your esthetician's instructions to maximize results and prevent complications.
