Acne.org : AHA+ (Glycolic Acid - 10%)

I've been using a 10% benzoyl peroxide wash in the shower and the AHA once or twice a day. I do not wash my face with soap ever. This has been almost a miracle, even though it took several months. I was a dog groomer and I still have hair splinters in my neck that are working their way out, but this is definitely speeding up the process.

i just have a question about this product, my skin is sensitive and most likely I don't have acne on my face just one or two on the side of my face, but i have a lot of scars red marks from an acne before , can i use this product without the bp ?, because i have seen in a lot of reviews that people use it with bp, or do i have to use bp since I don't have breakouts ?, I'm welling to buy the product because i want to get red off the redmarks and scars,

About a year ago I broke out with horrific bumps (large, red, sore) all around the right side of my chin and under the right side of my nose. I have no idea what caused it, but I found the acne.org site and was reviewing products and decided to try this. I was also put on Acana. Within about 1 month the sores were gone. I still have one red mark from the one under my nose, but I have no other sign that I got this strange breakout. I have never had bad acne so this was pretty bad. I had to get 7 cortisone injections and this caused severe indentations in my skin (normal for cortisone injections). It took 8 months for the skin to return to normal. I am convinced that the alpha hydroxy helped in that process as well. It is very worth a try.

This is another great product from Dan. This product along with the benzoyl peroxide has made a huge difference in my skin. I'm not sure if I would say it's a great spot treatment, but it definitely helps to improve skin tone. Highly recommended.

The value and quality of this product is amazing. You only use a small amount, yet the tube is huge. I have enough in this bottle for a year! Best value out there. Honestly between this and coconut oil, my skin is FINALLY starting to look amazing. And at a fraction of the cost. I really think your skin is better off basic...not lots of fillers and chemicals. Thank you Dan!

I've been using the Regimen for just under 2 months and it has taken my oily, splotchy, irritated, acne-laden skin and made it so much clearer and calmer. I'm still breaking out, but with much less frequency, and the pimples I am still getting tend to be much smaller and quicker to resolve. I did experience the flakiness and redness for the first month as I got used to the BP, and if I use significantly more than usual at a time it can still end up red and irritated, but for the most part that effect has subsided. I used SO much jojoba oil mixed in with the moisturizer during that first month; this surprised me, given how oily my face has been historically, but the daily BP use reversed that reeeeeeal quick. I still had a lot of dark spots and scars and a generally pinkish skin tone that I wanted to get rid of, so I added in the AHA a few weeks ago. Full disclosure, it STUNG the first time I put it on after the BP dried. It felt like my skin was actively burning. I have somewhat sensitive skin, and I was thinking I wouldn't be able to handle this product, but I decided to experiment with it and I've found a way that makes it work for me! I've ended up either using it half-strength whenever I apply the BP all over, or using it full-strength during the daytime with minimal to no BP, and that is making a massive difference in my skin tone and texture. It's much smoother and less red, and the flaking is more or less gone. And, while I still have dark spots, they seem to be starting to fade. This regimen is a godsend for someone like me, who's suffered from pretty substantial acne for the past 15 years and tried everything under the sun to get rid of it. I finally don't feel the need to use foundation as a camouflage for my skin issues, and it's been the most liberating thing to go outside without makeup and not feel self-conscious about my face! 100% recommend!

I DO really like this product. I use it any night I look at my dry, cleansed face and there's a decent amount of flakes. You can literally rub the dead skin from your face after using this. The burning is pretty bad but it doesn't last long. I use an ice cube in a baggy to cool my face down. This is definitely either a night-only product or to use on days you're staying home the entire day, because it makes you so vulnerable to the sun and it does make your face red for a while. Buy I end up not looking ragged! =D

This is the only product that has ever *completely* cleared my body acne. It's a miracle. I've suffered for years (and have the scars to prove it!) and a week into daily treatment with just this product, my skin was smooth. I use this every day after my shower, and for about 2 months, I've been bump free. My upper back, chest and shoulders were awful, and as a girl, that's really hard. Thank you for this product!!

I was so excited about this product but unfortunately my skin did not agree with it. It seemed to reverse the progress achieved from using the Benzyl Peroxide. Little rashes all over my skin, totally broke me out....

This is the comment a co-worker gave me today, she asked me, "What are you doing with you skin?? It looks sooo great, like porcelain!" This is the very first time in my life during my 18 year journey of acne have I ever been complemented on my skin. I knew right away I had to write a review on the AHA+ product. This is the key to taking my skin to where I want it to be. I have only been using the AHA for about 1.5-2 weeks now. But it has evened out my skin tone, flattened my skin indefinitely, and has gotten rid of a lot of gunk. I encourage you to use this product along side the benzoyl peroxide. But I think that you should apply the AHA after you are clearing up. The AHA works as a scar treatment/skin evener. Great product. 5/5
