Skin Laboratory Glycolic Acid 35% Gel Peel

Categories: Wrinkle Cream Reviews

Skin Laboratory’s Glycolic Acid 35% Gel Peel is intended to give you dermatologist’s-office results at home. This peel contains glycolic acid, which has an extremely small molecular size and easily penetrates the surface of the skin to dramatically increase hydration and collagen synthesis. The peel contains many healing and revitalizing ingredients that are absorbed along with the glycolic acid to even skin tone and decrease fine lines and wrinkles. This treatment is also ideal for acne, healing acne scars and repairing sun damage, which makes it somewhat unique among wrinkle creams and anti-aging treatments.

You should not ever use this peel every day. The instructions are extremely specific and extremely important. Apply the peel once or twice a week for three to five minutes, depending on how sensitive your skin is. You may feel a tingling, which is normal, but burning is not. Wash the solution off your face and moisturize it thoroughly. You may see some pinkness in your skin, but this should fade within 24 hours. After you have followed these instructions for six weeks, take a month off from the treatment. Then you can start over again.

My Rating is: 4/5

Drawbacks:

There really are very few drawbacks to this product. However, all chemical peels require careful consideration before you begin using them.

This peel can leave your face pink or even red for up to 24 hours after you use it.
Most people report results appearing about 72 hours after the peel, so you do not get instant results.
You must use a moisturizer with this product or you risk serious skin damage.

Benefits:

Not only does it treat fine lines and wrinkles, it also improves skin tone and texture.
This product clears pores effectively and relatively gently.
You can use this product to treat and prevent breakouts.

My Review

This is one of the most comprehensive skin treatments on the market. It is hard hitting, but unlikely to hurt your skin or cause breakouts – in fact, it eliminates many of the issues that cause your skin to break out in the first place. In addition, the skin smoothing and toning is extremely attractive, as is the fact that this peel takes on sun damage head on. Glycolic acid has been a staple in the anti-aging industry for quite some time, but many peels can be intimidating because they are so hard on your skin.

This one takes next to no time to apply and even has a built-in recovery period during which you give your new, fresh-looking skin a break from the peels before starting the process over. Many people make their bottles last a really long time because they find that once restoration has started, they only need the treatment once a week to make the effects stick. Obviously, whenever you use an acid peel you have to adhere to the instructions very carefully, but the results are totally worth the tingle in my book.
