Lactic acid peels are a type of alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) peel that is effective for exfoliating the skin, improving texture, and promoting a brighter, more even complexion. Lactic acid is derived from milk and is known for being a milder AHA, making it suitable for sensitive skin while still providing significant exfoliation benefits. The concentration of lactic acid in peels can vary, typically ranging from 15% to 40%.

 

Benefits of Lactic Acid Peel:

  • Exfoliates Dead Skin Cells: Lactic acid helps to remove the outer layer of dead skin cells, promoting cell turnover and revealing fresher, smoother skin underneath.

  • Brightens Skin Tone: Regular use of lactic acid peels can improve skin radiance and reduce dullness.

  • Reduces Hyperpigmentation: It can help to lighten dark spots, age spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

  • Improves Skin Texture: Lactic acid peels can smooth rough skin texture, making the skin feel softer and more even.

  • Hydrating Properties: Lactic acid is also known for its hydrating properties, helping to maintain skin moisture levels.

  • Minimizes Fine Lines and Wrinkles: By promoting collagen production and cell turnover, lactic acid can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time.

 

How to Use Lactic Acid Peel:

  • Pre-Peel Preparation:

Cleanse Your Face: Use a gentle, oil-free cleanser to remove makeup, dirt, and impurities.

Patch Test: Perform a patch test on a small area of skin to ensure you do not have an adverse reaction.

  • Application:

Apply the Peel: Using a cotton pad or brush, apply a thin, even layer of the lactic acid peel to your face, avoiding the eye area and any areas with broken skin.

Set Time: Leave the peel on for the recommended time based on the concentration:

  • 15% Lactic Acid: 3-5 minutes
  • 30% Lactic Acid: 2-4 minutes
  • 40% Lactic Acid: 1-3 minutes

 

  • Neutralize and Rinse:

Neutralize: Some peels come with a neutralizing solution to stop the chemical action. Follow the product instructions.

Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse your face thoroughly with cool water to remove all traces of the peel.

 

Post-Peel Care:

  1. Hydrate: Apply a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to soothe the skin.
  2. Avoid Sun Exposure: Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily to protect your skin from UV damage.
  3. Avoid Irritants: Avoid using other strong skincare products, like retinoids or exfoliants, for a few days post-peel.
