Glycolic Peel Facial
A Glycolic Peel is a professional skin resurfacing treatment that uses glycolic acid, derived from sugar cane, to gently exfoliate the skin. By removing dead skin cells from the surface, it reveals a brighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking complexion.
How Does It Work?
Glycolic acid belongs to the Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) family and works by loosening the bonds between dead skin cells, allowing them to be shed more easily. This process encourages healthy skin cell turnover and helps improve overall skin texture and appearance.
