HOW MUCH DO YOU KNOW ABOUT GLYCOLIC ACID?
Glycolic acid is an exfoliating fruit acid, perfect for renewing the skin and making it brighter and more compact. Let's find out what are the benefits for our skin:
- Exfoliates by removing top layer of dead skin cells.
- Stimulates cell regeneration.
- Softens fine lines & superficial scars.
- Fades hyperpigmentation by suppressing melanin production.
- Smoothes skin texture.
- Stimulates collagen production & elastin quality.
- Has humectant properties (hydrating) & stimulates hyaluronic acid production.
- Helps other ingredients penetrate better.
The creams contain a concentration of active ingredient that varies from 5% to 15%. This is a quantity that serves to lightly exfoliate the most superficial layers of the skin. The high penetrating power of this acid causes an increase in the production of elastin and collagen at the level of the dermis. These are two fundamental molecules for tissue tonicity and to ensure hydration and support. Furthermore, glycolic acid is a depigmenting agent, meaning that it is able to lighten skin blemishes and is exploited in the action of lightening and smoothing creams.
