Glycolic Acid:
* Glycolic acid is one of the most widely used of the broadly popular alpha hydroxyl acids, as an efficacious chemical peel.
* Even in strong concentrations, it has few negative side effects.
* Long-term daily use of low-strength glycolic acid products may also have some useful effects on scars
* Glycolic also makes the skin more resistant to attack from ultraviolet light (thus reducing the impact of photo-aging), improves its moisture retention, and, perhaps for the same reasons, improves its general condition.
* Glycolic acid, used alone, is fairly effective against acne, and (even at much higher concentrations than recommended) is safe, however, by itself, it is not a complete solution and does work best as part of a skin care regime.
