Lactic Acid 70% Gel Peel, 30ml (Professional)

I noticed a slight alteration in the color of my acne scars....yes..after one treatment. Seems to keep pimples more in check as well. I have fewer break outs. The company is a good one..and they sent me feedback to let me know if i needed more help with the process...i could let them know and tell me what to do. Good customer service! ;) I can't wait to use this peel again...oh and it's gel based....i used some sample ones from another company..and they were more watery...this one feels thicker--which i like. It does sting..but i have a high tolerance for "pain"...i left my 1st peel on for 6 min. They said you shouldn't leave it on for 10...which i'll probably shoot for next time...I did not peel what-so-ever. They told me...they make it that way...if you do peel...it wont be dramatic. But i did have a few rough patches on my skin..but the dead skin came off when i exfoliated. I'll keep buying it.....and im optimistic for what my face can be in 6 weeks!

This stuff works as described.I'd had some skin problems as far as shaving bumps and acne, but I used this stuff and saw a noticeable difference.Skin was much smoother, a tad lighter (I'm a light brown skin black male) and I noticed a lot of marks/blemishes had lightened/smoothed out.I will warn that you should follow the directions exactly as written. I left some on my neck a bit too long trying to get rid of razor bump scars and it left it discolored (a bit lighter than my normal skin tone). This was years ago (2009) and it's still discolored.Overall very good product though.

I use this product interchanging with glycolic acid peels biweekly or every 3 weeks. I apply and let it sit on my face and neck for 2-3 mins, i then rinse clean with cool water and neutralize it with baking soda and water mix. Occasionally I get a slight itch or tingle on my cheeks where my skin gets dry at times or on a pimple if I have one at the time. It's not bad at all just hard fighting the urge for scratch for those 3 minutes. With my peels, professional microderabrassion monthly and daily moisturizing I have managed to cut my make up use down 90%. I now only wear it if I'm getting dressed up and going out :)

I am 34 with combination skin- dry on cheeks and oily t-zone. Pale (I fry easily in the sun) with discoloations and pregnancy mask and sun spots. I bought this to even up my tone, lighten my pregnancy mask and sun spots. Also, if it would treat the fine lines beginning to creep up, I'm okay with that too! The only peel product I have ever used is Avon's Anew peel pads, which are alright if you get them on sale, but not life-changing.I tried this for the 1st time last week. I washed my face, used alcohol to get rid of any remaning oil & let my skin dry. Then I started the peel. I tried a brush, but felt like I couldn't control where the peel was going, so I switched to a cotton ball. I only felt mild tingling. Even at that, I washed it off at 2 mins. & neutralized with baking soda and cold water. My face didn't look red or angry, so I tried out my 1mm derma roller for the first time right after. Now I was really red! I applied my retinol serum and retinol night cream and went to bed. My face felt tight and slightly sunburnt. The next morning, my skin was truly smoother. My pregnancy mask *possibly* looked a little lighter. (I have been using hydroquine cream 4% from my derm. off and on for about 5 months, but it didn't really do anything.)5 days later, I tried it again (last night). Washed my face, used alcohol, and used the peel for a full 4 mins this time. It was really burning, when it didn't last time. Maybe b/c my skin was healing still from last time? My skin only turned pink on my pregnancy mask areas on my cheeks. I used my hair dryer on cool then I neutralized it. This time, I skipped the derma roller as I read you should only do it every few weeks to let the collagen rebuild, and just used my retinol night cream. No serum. Today, my skin feels as smooth as a baby's butt!Is this a miracle? No, but it's not meant to be. It's not a deep peel. It's only a little bit at a time and that's okay with me. I don't want to look like the Crypt Keeper. I want to be able to control it. If I have to do it weekly to slowly see results over a couple of months, that's fine with me. I think my pregnancy mask is a bit lighter (my husband thinks it is) and my skin is def. smoother. My tone looks a little bit more even. My pores perhaps a bit smaller. I don't think my fine lines are any different. I will continue to use the bottle once a week until it's gone then either repurchase or find a new product.I will update every peel or so, to let you know what's going on.Please remember to use sunscreen! I bought Eucerin's 30spf face lotion on Amazon at the same time I bought the peel. It's light and not greasy. So far, I really like it.UPDATE: 4/10/13I have done the peel 2 more times since the review. 1st one, I washed my face and didn't use rubbing alcohol, since it is very drying. I just used Walmart's generic verson of ProActive toner. I don't think the peel really did anything. I didn't sting and barely tingled.5 days later, I did the full peel again, this time with the alcohol again. Much more stinging. It's true...you really have to remove ALL your face oils for this peel to penetrate through your skin. So far, am I completely wowed? No, but I will say my face is much softer and my pores are much tighter. That alone is enough to make me keep using it every 5 days til it's gone. Then even perhaps re-order. Even if it only tightens my pores, for the price and the amount of peels you get, it's worth it.

This worked well. It didn't burn at all, also didn't have any discomfort at the full 8 minutes. At first, you wont see any peeling. I didn't notice the slight peeling till after 7 days. But be patient it does work. Its gel so it kinda beads up on your face and it most definitely stays where you put it. It also doesnt drip anywhere where you dont put. There is use to layer it because it will not get because they worked with satisfying results for me

My first application was for 1 minute as the instructions stated. I increased my second application to 4 minutes. I had slight peeling around my nose area, but not very noticeable. My mild form of acne seems to dry up and look less irritated after the first application. I plan to use each week until I can get the acne under control.

I've applied the gel peel to my hands to remove the dreaded age spots. After just two uses, I don't see any significant improvement. The directions say to leave the gel on for 4 minutes max. Good luck with that! It burns my hands, but once it's removed, my skin is softer and there is no residual redness. I need to be more diligent about applying it before passing judgment.
