What Is GA Peel?
GA (Glycolic Acid) Peel is a chemical exfoliation treatment that uses alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) to gently remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells. It promotes cell turnover, unclogs pores, and enhances the absorption of skincare products. The peel helps improve acne, smooth rough skin, reduce fine lines, and restore a radiant, even complexion. Regular treatments can also refine skin texture, reduce pigmentation, and support overall skin health.
How It Works
GA Peel works by applying a thin layer of glycolic acid solution onto the skin. Glycolic acid penetrates the upper layers of the epidermis, loosening the bonds between dead skin cells and promoting exfoliation. Depending on the skin’s sensitivity, the concentration of GA is adjusted for optimal results.
Before the treatment, the skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove oils, makeup, and impurities. A protective barrier may be applied to sensitive areas. The peel is then applied with a brush or gauze in a controlled manner. During the application, the patient may feel a mild tingling or warming sensation. After the desired exposure time, the peel is neutralized, and a soothing serum or mask is applied to calm the skin. The treatment is quick, typically lasting 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the skin’s tolerance and peel strength.
