Lactic acid for acne scars

by Gloria

I bought Lactic acid 70% gel peel with some trepidation as I heard of chemical peels gone bad on different television shows.
I noticed a slight alteration in the color of my acne scars after one treatment. Seems to keep pimples more in check as well.

I have tried the salicylic acid (20%), glycolic acid (35%) and finally the lactic acid (70%) and my skin has improved dramatically! I especially liked that the company included a complimentary small bottle of salicylic acid and recommended using it as a pre-peel a day before using the lactic acid. I did as recommended, and left the lactic on for exactly one minute as it was my first time using it. I have also been moisturizing at night with Vaseline petroleum jelly because of the dryness I experienced. Well, in three days, I noticed peeling, with my old skin being removed when I used my toner after washing.

Because of the gel formula easier to use than other peels that are more liquid. The product works as well as a professional peel.

Eat plenty of oranges, leafy veggies, and salmon before and after the peel. The skin will heal faster and you will get a better peel out of it. Also use a really good moisturizer.
