DavyBoy93 0 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I have been reading around that AHA is good as a spot treatment for the Regimen I was just wondering why this would be a good spot treatment. In other words what makes this work on acne. does anyone have an answer or it just works and w/e.If someone could just explain the mechanics of AHA that would be grand.

ShockBotkins 0 Share Posted April 16, 2008 AHA speeds the renewal process up of your skin and takes care of the dead skin cells from getting into your pores. I use it every night before I go to bed and it works great. I don't recommend using it during the day because it makes your skin more prone to the sun for sun burn. I don't use it for spot treatment, I apply it all over my face because it's very good for the skin but be sure to start out every other night because it will sting when you first start using it but that only lasts for a few minutes and goes away after your skin becomes familiar with it. I recommend the souffle from www.alphahydrox.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DavyBoy93 0 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 I have used AHA before in fact i own many products containing it including the product you recommended. I just never used it as a spot treatment but w/e. Thanks for your replies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fiyero 0 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Just wanted to add this - AHAs can make your skin more sensitive to the sun and increase the possibility of sun damage/sunburn whether you apply it during the day or at night. Always protect your skin with a good, broad-spectrum sunscreen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheLinkster007 0 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I would like to add that a gentle AHA Toner can be an excellent product to use.It makes your face all smooth in terms of colour.I used to have patchy skin with red parts here and there. Now it's 99% normal looking and I love my progress. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Crabby_Patty 0 Share Posted April 17, 2008 So which is better AHA or BHA? I always thought AHA was for anti aging and BHA was for better for exfoliation for acne !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
