What is the difference between a glycolic acid peel and a lactic acid peel?
Glycolic acid peels are formulated from sugar cane, while lactic acid peels are derived from either sour milk or bilberries. Both peels remove dead skin cells, and promote healthier, softer and more radiant skin. While both peeling agents have equivalent results, lactic acid is gentler on the skin and there is better control of the peel without burning and there is minimal chance of adverse effects.
