Pharmacists Advice Glycolic acid is an exfoliating acid from the AHA group (alpha hydroxy acids). Glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) obtained from sugar cane. Its molecules are so small that they penetrate deeper layers of the skin, stimulating the synthesis of collagen and moisturizing substances such as hyaluronic acid. However, it is primarily known for its ability to improve skin texture and radiance, as it exfoliates at a more superficial level (on the stratum corneum). Depending on its concentration and the other ingredients, the cosmetic product may have a predominantly hydrating effect (at lower concentrations of glycolic acid) or an exfoliating effect (at higher concentrations). This concentration range can go from 4% to 20%. Depending on the desired outcome and skin sensitivity, well choose one type of cosmetic formula containing glycolic acid or another. For example, higher concentrations are usually found in intensive products for weekly application: with a deeper effect, in treatments against hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and/or blackheads. These will release a greater number of surface corneocytes (cells), which will be eliminated and promote skin renewal. When starting to use it, or if were looking for better tolerance, daily-use products with a lower concentration will provide renewal, radiance, and hydration to the skin. In addition to all these properties, it has the ability to improve acne lesions, blackheads, and blemishes. As with any routine, but especially when using this type of renewing ingredient, daily sun protection is essential. I dont recommend starting to use glycolic acid with other acidic or potentially irritating ingredients. After application, a slight tingling sensation may appear, which subsides quickly and will continue to do so with continued use. If the discomfort persists or is bothersome, it means the product is unsuitable or your skin doesnt tolerate it. Its important to seek expert advice from a skin care professional to find a routine tailored to your skin type and needs.
