Glycolic Peel

Summary Content

A Glycolic Peel is a type of chemical exfoliation that uses glycolic acid, a naturally derived alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), to remove dead skin cells, smooth texture, and reveal a brighter, more radiant complexion. Known for its small molecular size, glycolic acid penetrates deeply into the skin to stimulate cell turnover, unclog pores, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, acne, and hyperpigmentation.

At Rejuvenation Dermatology, our glycolic peel treatments are professionally applied and tailored to your skin’s needs and sensitivity level. This peel is ideal for improving dullness, uneven skin tone, rough texture, and early signs of aging. It can also help manage acne-prone skin by reducing excess oil and buildup within the pores.

The treatment is quick, typically with little to no downtime, and leaves the skin smoother, clearer, and more youthful over time. Whether used as a one-time refresh or part of a regular skincare routine, a glycolic peel offers a safe and effective solution for revitalized, glowing skin.

What is a Glycolic Peel?

Glycolic peels use a gentle acid to exfoliate the skin, improve texture, and boost radiance. By removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, the treatment reveals fresher, smoother skin underneath. It’s ideal for treating fine lines, acne, dullness, and uneven tone—with minimal downtime and maximum glow.
