Lactic Acid Peels

Lactic acid is derived from yogurt, buttermilk, or sour cream and is much milder than other alpha hydroxy acids such as glycolic acid. Lactic Acid is already in humans cells which makes it a safer hydroxy acid to use than alpha hydroxy’s such glycolic acid.

This is an advantage for first timer users or those with sensitive skin. Lactic Acid has one of the largest molecules, so penetration is much slower which results in less irritation to the skin.

As with Glycolic Acid, it works by loosening the glue like substance that bind skin cells together. It works on the epidermis layer of the skin only, so it is not a deep peel. However it does stimulate elastic fibers and promotes growth new collagen in the dermis layer of the skin.

 

Lactic Acid Peels can improve many skin conditions including:
• Sun-damaged skin
• Hyperpigmentation
• Fine wrinkles
• Mild acne scars
• Age spots
• Actinic keratosis
• Brown Spots

Lactic Acid lotions

Normally a lighter weight formulation often used on the body.

Lactic Acid cream

Normally a richer thicker formulation designed for use on the face. Generally creams have a higher concentration of lactic acid than lotions.
