A
peeling
program can be designed to meet your expectations or another
approach more
appropriate for you chosen. Depending on how rapidly you require
improvement,
and how many side effects would be acceptable to you, either a
slow gentle
and almost side effect free plan, or a rapid plan resulting in
dryness,
flaking and sometimes even scabbing on the way to better skin will
be decided.
Generally, the program will involve several peels over a period of
time.
The flexibility of the glycolic acid peeling system takes into
consideration
the condition for which the peel is being used, the degree
of improvement
required, the time allowed to achieve it and the acceptable amount
of discomfort
or down time.

With
any procedure there are possible side effects, but those
applying
to AHA peeling are generally minimal and transient, provided
there
are no special circumstances relating to your skin.
In
general, alpha hydroxy acid peeling is a
safe and effective method
of gradually improving the surface of the skin.
