A.All peels use an acid-base to exfoliate the top layers of skin. The higher the concentration of acid, the deeper the peel and this will be recommended by your therapist. It is often the case that only one layer of peel is necessary, however depth depends on your photo-type. The blend of acids mentioned (salicylic, lactic and glycolic) removes the surface layers of damaged skin. Dead skin cells are replaced by healthier ones, allowing the skin’s own clarity and tightness to resurface.
