Glycolic Acid Facial Skin Care

Not all glycolic acid products work. Learn why and find the best products to brighten your complexion and treat wrinkles, age spots, and acne.

Glycolic acid facial creams are powerful skin lightening products and they're the best nonprescription facial skin care products available to treat wrinkles and brighten skin. When patients ask me how to remove age spots on face and body skin, I always incorporate glycolic acid into their total skin care regimen.

Add to that the fact that glycolic acid helps unclog pores to treat acne, and you can see why it's in so many facial care products. The trick is to find strong glycolic acid facial skin care products that work, and unfortunately not all glycolic acid products deliver results. That's because their ph and free acid content vary and you can't get that information from reading the product label!

For glycolic acid products to work, they must be very acidic and have over 10% free glycolic acid (not the percent number on the label). Only the chemist who made the products knows these things and I've researched that information from all the major companies that produce professional skin care products. That's why I recommend Glytone products and Glycolix Elite 15%. They are made to be effective, plus, I've seen them deliver results for thousands of my patients.

Glycolix Elite Facial Cream

Glycolix Elite Facial Cream 15% | 1.6 oz. | Price: $23.00
This is my favorite facial glycolic acid cream made by my favorite chemist.
15% glycolic acid at a ph of under 4 means strong AHA therapy yet the creamy base is light and I find that is won't clog pores. Read More Details »

Glytone Facial Cream #2

Glytone Facial Cream #2 | 1.70 oz. | Price: $40.00
An extremely hydrating glycolic acid cream.
It's a perfect starting point for beginning AHA therapy for dry skin types.

Glytone Facial Cream #3

Glytone Facial Cream #3 | 1.70 oz. | Price: $42.00
This is the 'big gun' in facial AHA therapy.
A full 20% of available glycolic acid is the maximum I recommend for home therapy. The base is rich and hydrating for dry skin. Read More Details »

Quantity:

Glytone Exfoliating Lotion #2

Glytone Exfoliating Lotion #2 | 2 fl. oz. | Price: $32.00
AHA therapy with a light water base for oily skin.
I have patients use it to improve acne and rejuvenate skin. Read More Details »

Quantity:

Glytone Exfoliating Lotion #3

Glytone Exfoliating Lotion #3 | 2 fl. oz. | Price: $34.00
The same light water base for oily skin as in the Glytone Exfoliation Lotion #2 but with a stronger level of AHA therapy.
I have patients use it to improve acne and rejuvenate skin. I recommend conditioning the skin by beginning with Lotion #2 and then advancing to #3. Read More Details »

Quantity:

Glytone Mild Gel Wash

Glytone Mild Gel Wash | Price: $28.00
This is an excellent exfoliating foaming cleanser that preps the skin for glycolic acid creams and lotions.
A great facial cleanser alternative to our OTB SKIN Oil Off Cleanser for acne patients who are allergic to salicylic acid. Glytone Mild Gel Wash contains glycolic acid with a free acid value 4.7%. I like it used with a Buf Puf Facial Sponge. Read More Details »
