Glycolic acid is one of the alpha-hydroxyacids (AHA), a group of naturally occurring substances often referred to as "fruit acids" because they are found naturally in various fruits and other foods.  Numerous clinical publications demonstrate their benefits in improving skin appearance and texture.  Improvements have been seen in patients with dry skin, oily and acne prone skin, and with pigmentation concerns including age spots and melasma.

Many skin problems are caused by or associated with an excessive build up of dead skin cells that makes the skin thick and dull and may actually cause clogged pores.  The AHA helps to loosen and remove the surface layers of the skin, as well as promote more even pigmentation and deeper firming effects.
