Glycolic acid

About Glycolic acid

Hydroxy acid derivative, Keratolytic(Ani acne), Preservative.

Mechanism of Action of Glycolic acid

Glycolic acid works like an exfoliant. Through removal of dead skin cells that have been aggregated on the skins surface area. The composition of these dead cells emphasizes fine lines and pores or other skin impairments .Once applied, glycolic acid reacts with the upper layer of the epidermis, weakening the binding properties of the lipids that hold the dead skin cells together. This allows the stratum corneum to be exfoliated, exposing live skin cells.
