Does anyone know anything about glycolic acid peels? I have started a course of 6 glycolic acid face peels (have had 2 so far). I have them done by a nurse. The first was 10% strength for about 10 minutes and the second 20% but for just 4 minutes. What I'd like to know is what kind of results I might get at the end of the course ( I know this varies) - has anyone had a course of these and were you happy with the results? I'm having the treatments as I have mild acne - I tend to get only a few red spots at any one time - my major problem though is blocked pores - I have these all over my face. My skin is smooth but the pigmentation is slightly uneven due to past blemishes. also, my skin is worse today than it has been for a while - would you expect it to get slightly worse initially, with this type of treatment? Hope someone can help - thankyou :)

Nothing happened post glycolic acid peel? I ordered a 50% glycolic acid peel online with a pH of 2.0 and have used it twice so far. I felt the burning both times.

Is it typical to get a 70% glycolic peel before a tca (medium) peel? A dermatologist's office mentioned over the phone that the dermatologist usually likes to give a 70% glycolic peel before doing the tca peel. I was wondering if that is the usual since I'd read that there is an at-home skin prepping for about a month with glycolic products. Just wondering if is necessary for the peel to get the utmost results or if it is to add more money to the dr's bank. Thank you! I have skin discoloration that may really be helped by such a skin peel. Any information or input is so appreciated.
Hi! I have pitted scars adn I wanna have some glycolic acid peels, can you recommend me a place to do that? I am trying to find a cheaper place.. until now 50$/ session is the cheapest but considering the fact that I need about 6 sessions I would like to find something cheaper but that is still safe.. can you give me any ideas please? Thank you so much! Thank you strawberry, I wanna do that (go to a dermatologist/spa) but I want a recommendation about a lower price as money is the issue... Hi Raymond and thank you for your answer! My scars are like little holes, people usually mistake them for very large pores (actually I also have huge pores..) and the ones that bother me the most are on my cheeks. I think they are called pitted scars :). Then, I have used vinegar but tell me again what is the exact name of the one you used, maybe I didn't try the best one. I am already using retin-a but because of my other skin condition (seborrheic dermatitis) I cannot apply it on my cheeks where most of the problems are.. I already had a chemical peeling and my skin improved so so much after this one but the effects lasted 6-7 months then the skin went back to it's problems, maybe because I have very active sebaceous glands => dilated pores, bad skin..

Glycolic Peel "at home" ?? Hi, I'm in Europe for a while where it's legal to buy real glycolic acid in pharmacies. I'm hoping someone with experience on the subject of facial peels will answer my question. I'd like to do a glycolic peel at home. Since I can buy products between 3% and 70% glycolic acid ~ what should I start with?? I have small, faint discolorations all over my face from years of acne (no raised or indented scars though). Also, if I try to apply it evenly, there shouldn't be much risk with peeling certain areas deeper than others right? Yes, I have read quite a bit on the subject and am aware there will be stinging & redness for a full evening afterwards. Thank you for any sound advice!!

Because I feel my face is so tight that I can't freely smile and it feels like I'm having a buttocks.

Question about Glytone Mild Gel Wash and Glytone glycolic facial peel? Today I went to my dermatologist and received a glycolic acid peel using Glytone products. I was wondering if anyone has had this particular procedure and whether it successfully eliminated acne. The Dr. also said something about Glytone Mild Gel Wash (which contains a tiny, tiny amount of glycolic acid in the wash) By using this everyday, i could rejuvenate my skin cells and have a mini glycolic peel each day. Just wondering if anyone has used these products for acne or got a glycolic acid peel and if they have helped their acne?

Professional glycolic acid peel--at home? I recently found out that professional-grade (or so it says) acid peels are available for home use, and after ready many, many reviews of people doing it on their own, I've decided that I'd like to try it for myself (since professional peels just aren't practical for my college student lifestyle). Are there any skincare professionals or people who have used home peels such as http://www.amazon.com/Glycolic-Acid-Peel-100ml-Professional/dp/B000PR4F9K/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=hpc&qid=1201193921&sr=8-2 who can tell me how to go about it, and any other product I might need? I've heard a few things about neutralizing the skin afterwards--some people say to do it with water, and some say that you need to buy an actual neutralizer. Can anyone point me in the right direction with this?
glycolic face peel? i have been using a no 7 glycolic face peel and although it seems to make my skin softer it doesn't seem to do anything else. i have seen gycolic acid peels on the internet for sale are they safe? and what is the % mean? what do i need to start with?
chemical peels? I have very fair skin and have age spots, and hyperpigmentation. I have been using Platnium Skin Cares 60% glycolic peel for over a year. The results are good, but I have to use it twice a week. Anyone with info on glycolic or tca combo peels please let me know. Remember I am super fair (blonde) so I don't worry about getting too white. I have not ordered the tca combo because tca seems to be for ache scars which I dont have. I have never had achne. I am 46 so I have mature skin. What about hydroquinone 4%, I've heard that some people use that. 4% is prescription strength. 2% does not work for me. Thanks Dianne
Acne glycolic acid peel? I have moderately bad acne. It's a lot better than it used to be, but it's still there. My mom the other day (I'm a16 year old male btw) was talking to a friend of hers who works at a salon that does facials and all those kind of things. and my mom told her about my acne problem, the lady said she could do a "glycolic acid peel" that would remove most acne and most acne scars. and mostly the only thing wrong with my face now is the scarring from previous acne, so this sounded like a darn good idea to me. I did a little research on the topic and well it said that the only downside to the facial peel is the fact that it can leave redness of the skin for a few days afterwords. Well I'm thinking about getting this done on Saturday, and Sunday is me and my girlfriend's 1 month anniversary (haha) and she is leaving for Jersey for 3 weeks after Sunday... and of course I want to look my best... if I get this treatment done on Saturday will my face look like utter crap the next day??
