Glycolic Acid in Chemical Peel Protocol Protocols

Glycolic Acid plays a key role in professional chemical peel protocol treatments. The smallest alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) with superior penetration, dissolving the intercellular glue between corneocytes for effective chemical exfoliation.

Role of Glycolic Acid in Chemical Peel Protocol

Controlled application of alpha and beta hydroxy acids to exfoliate damaged outer layers, promoting new cell growth and improved skin texture Glycolic Acid enhances this treatment through its surface exfoliation and renewal properties, providing exfoliant support during and after the procedure.

Protocol Integration

In a typical chemical peel protocol protocol, glycolic acid can be utilised at several stages:

  • Pre-treatment: Skin preparation with glycolic acid-containing products to optimise treatment outcomes
  • During treatment: Active glycolic acid delivery through the treatment modality for enhanced penetration
  • Post-treatment: Recovery support using glycolic acid formulations to accelerate healing
