TREATMENT FOR CYSTIC ACNE SACRAMENTO, CA 916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC
Gylcolic acid is a type of alpha-hydroxy acid that functions to slough surface cells from the skin. Glycolic acid is an ingredient commonly used in chemical peels as well as anti-aging and acne skincare products. Exfoliating the skin with glycolic acid can help decongest the pores, smooth texture, even skin tone and control oil.
Glycolic acid is a smaller molecule than other alpha-hydroxy acids, which allows it to penetrate the skin quicker and deeper. For some people, this action can result in irritated skin. For this reason, glycolic is not for everyone, but don't worry, there are a variety of exfoliating serums (hydroxy acids) that offer the same results.
Typically, those with sensitive skin and a fair complexion do not respond well to glycolic, but this can be a coin toss. There are some individuals who have sensitive skin, but tolerate glycolic well. On the opposite side of the spectrum, there are those who consider themselves to have thick, tough, nonsensitive skin that are extremely reactive to glycolic acid.
