Should I Expect More Peeling from 20% Salicylic Acid or 30% Glycolic Acid?

Asked By:MrDA in London / New York

I've had 20% salicylic peels administered on a weekly basis but the level of peeling and flaking is a little too much for me, thought the results in the end are good. Will a 30% glycolic peel result in less 'down time,' peeling and flaking?
