Glycolic Peel: Q&A
Ask a Question
Do Glycolic Peels Increase Aging?
I am aware that the glycolic peels remove the dead layers of the skin which helps to promote new cells to the skins surface much quicker. I'm also aware that after a certain age our skin cells renew themselves more slowly. But by speeding up this process how do you know that you are not speeding up the ageing process of the skin?

Risks of Glycolic Acid Peels
Glycolic acid, even in stronger concentrations, will not penetrate deeply enough to do damage to the deeper, growing layers of the skin. It usually causes a mild exfoliation of the dead skin cell layers and helps with skin hydration. There should be no risk of speeding up the aging process. More importantly, if you want to slow down the aging process, wear your sunblock every day - year round!
