  1. The higher the percentage the stronger the treatment.You also have to take into consideration the level of PH in the glycolic acid. For a first time treatment try a 10% or 15% see how you’re skin reacts. It works wonders though for those who get series or treatment every 1-2 weeks, great for hyperpigmentation, and acne scars. You will eventually be able to build up to higher percentages of glycolic 20%/30%/40% etc. Not reccomeded for highly sensitive or rosacea skin. So get a good consultation from an esthetician, ask plenty of questions before getting it done. If done improperly or left on too long can lead to burns, & hyperpigmentation.

  2. I’ve been in that situation and there is really nothing you can do about it. There are things you can do to try to reduce the blemishes and get rid of acne/pimples temporarily but you will always be finding yourself cleaning your face or your body depending on where it’s at.

    I mean of course your acne should go away eventually but for some this is the case their whole life.

    I’m 29 years old and have been suffering from these little pests since I was a teenager. I tried all sorts of face washes from the local grocery store and what not, but nothing seemed to work. If anything it would just make my skin dry and itchy.

    Literally the best acne face wash I’ve ever used has been this stuff called clearpores. It has got rid of the acne to quickest and has been a success ever since I got it. It’s unique cause of it’s herbal supplement you take a long with it that helps your skin from the inside out. I saved money on it at skincleansingsystem dot com at the time which was helpful.

    You should really look into this stuff and if you can to assure the best results, get the 3 month supply because if it doesn’t work it will still save you butt on the return policy.

    Well good luck and best wishes.
