Company description::
Hollywood, CA (May 19, 2004) – When patients make a choice between the most popular and current non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedures including chemical/glycolic peels, microdermabrasion, and lasers, statistics support that chemical peels continue to remain the preferred procedure. Why? What exactly does glycolic acid do? What results can you expect? First, let’s explain where glycolic comes from.
Glycolic acid is the naturally occurring, non-toxic alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) originally found in sugar cane. AHA’s are one of the safest methods of skin renewal and because of glycolic acids molecular size, it is ideal for cosmetic use. Glycolic acid works by stimulating new growth of skin and collagen by decreasing the bond that holds dead skin cells on the surface. This allows dead cells to be removed gradually, leaving behind a layer of smoother and softer skin. During a glycolic peel, a solution of glycolic acid is applied to your skin for a brief period of time and then washed away. This solution causes several layers of the Stratum Corneum (the outer layer of skin) to dry up and peel off gradually over a period of several days. When the older layers have peeled off, they expose a new layer of undamaged skin.
Studies have shown that glycolic acid produces measurable improvement in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. In one study, fine lines were improved one-third after three weeks as measured by computer analysis. Glycolic acid products have been documented to produce a 300% increase in the moisture content of skin after twice-daily application for three weeks. Glycolic acid is also shown to help lighten blemishes and uneven marks on skin in conjunction with bleaching agents such as hydroquinone.
Glycolic acid peels are ideal for acne, scars, fine wrinkles, and skin discoloration. Dermatologists and spas also recommend it for dry aging skin. Why? Because as the skin ages, it becomes drier and loses elasticity. At the same time, the skin’s ability to rejuvenate slows down. The result of these changes is skin that looks older, flat, and non-radiant in appearance. The older you get, the more you need to speed the rejuvenation process by increasing the rate of exfoliation and to rebuild the structure of your skin. Doctors recommend at least 6-10 peels for best results.
How much does glycolic acid cost? Those who have spent hundreds and thousands of dollars on professional spas and facials understand the frustration of forking out tons of money for high quality treatments such as glycolic peels. Peels2go - a small online company specializing in cutting edge glycolic and skin care products offers doctor-strength glycolic peels at extremely affordable prices to the public. One glycolic peel at a spa would cost an average of $65. At Peels2go.com, the average price for one bottle of doctor-strength glycolic acid (6 months supply) is under $30.
