Pros:

Evens skin tone, reduces overall blemishes, gives skin a "glow", and reduces pore size.

Cons:

After extractions (which is recommended) my face is inflamed, but the next day its great! Because this is a mild peel, I expect real results are going to take a lot longer than I would like, but I'd rather wait it out to avoid looking bad for 2 wks.

I've only had 2 peels and Blu-U Light right after. That and the combination of tetracyclene (500mg twice day)has done wonders. I only have red spots left, and hopefully after 6-8 treatments they will all be gone. I recommend seeing a specialist/Aesthetician because, unlike a derm Dr, the aesthetician wants you to look good. My treatment is $250 for 6 peels and its worth it.

I am using a Gycolic acid peel kit treatment brought from the local beauty shop. I have only used it twice, and can see amazing results. I would put the solution and wear it over night because it doesn't have a high percent of acid, so safe enough to wear when I sleep and in the morning I will remove with water. My skin is not really sensitive thats why I can bare the treatment and that's why I can see results, but I am also on medication pills to help with my skin(acne mild) aswell. I would recommend girls to try it cause it does work and if it doesn't it either your skin is really sensitive or your need a stronger strength or Gycolic acid because skin might produce to many olis.

Pros:

I use 50% Glycolic acid it cleared little bumps that i had under my skin for years,makes my complexion alot less patchy,and genraly refreshes my whole face! it does work quit well and u will defanetly notice the diffrence but its no miracle cure.

Cons:

first few peels u mite have a break out coz its clearing all the deep grime out and brings it to the surface! sometimes it can be quite sore during the peel!

It is defantly the most effective home treatment out there! the first couple of peels might make u have a break out but by your 3rd or 4th peel u will defantly start to see results and you have 6 peels 1 a week! u will need a top up peel after a month or so beacuse the effects are not permanent but it is very cheap and a 30ml bottle does 30 peels so it lasts months! for me it cleared lumps under my skin that had been there for years,evened out my skin tone and made it less patchy and gives me a healthy glow,makes my face soft as a babys ass,kills all my spots (although i still get the ocasional spot but no where near as many as before) also slighty minimized my fine lines on my forhead not very much but enough to notice! so yeah i think its good! just dont exspect miracles!

Pros:

Works to clear up current acne and also fades past acne marks.

Cons:

Can dry out the skin if not used as reccomended.

I love it. I also look for acne washes that have Glycolic acid as an ingredient. I found a 1-step Glycolic acid peel at [link removed]. It's about $32 for 20 pads.
