Glycolic Acid Peel: Reveal Radiant, Refreshed Skin
Transform your skin with the power of Glycolic Acid. A favorite among dermatologists and medical spas, the Glycolic Acid Peel in Washington DC is a safe, effective way to exfoliate, brighten, and renew your complexion – with little to no downtime.
What is a Glycolic Acid Peel?
A Glycolic Acid Peel in Washington DC is a type of chemical exfoliation treatment that uses glycolic acid – a naturally derived alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) – to gently remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells. This boosts cell turnover, improves texture, and enhances your skin’s natural glow.
How It Works
Glycolic acid has the smallest molecular size of all AHAs, which allows it to penetrate deeply into the skin. Once applied, it loosens the bonds that hold dead skin cells together, allowing them to slough off and reveal fresh, new skin underneath.
Key Benefits of a Glycolic Acid Peel in Washington DC
- Brightens dull, tired-looking skin

- Fades hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and sun damage
