On the effect of the combination of benzoyl peroxide and glycolic acid
There are medicinal agents in the world. The combination of benzoyl peroxide and glycolic acid has different effects and is important for doctors.

Benzoyl peroxide has strong oxidizing properties. When applied to the skin, it can penetrate deep into the pores and break the survival environment of Propionibacterium acne, eliminating its way of reproduction. And it can loosen the keratin, promote it to fall off, make the pores unobstructed, and prevent sebum from clogging into acne.

Glycolic acid is a fruit acid. Its molecules are slender, can quickly penetrate the surface of the skin, promote the metabolism of keratinocytes, remove old waste keratin, and refresh the skin. It can increase the skin's hydration and make the skin smooth and delicate. It can also inhibit melanin production and smooth skin tone.

The two are used together to complement each other. Benzoyl peroxide mainly targets Propionibacterium acne and keratin accumulation, and glycolic acid helps skin renewal and moisturizing and whitening. If used in combination for common acne, it can reduce inflammation, redness and swelling, reduce acne and prevent acne regeneration, and improve the rough and dull state of the skin after acne.

When used in combination, it is also necessary to be careful. Both are irritating to a certain extent, or cause skin redness, itching, and desquamation. Therefore, the skin test should be carried out before use, and the dosage and range should be gradually increased from low concentration and small area. People with sensitive skin should be especially cautious, and consult a doctor before use if necessary.

In short, the combination of benzoyl peroxide and glycolic acid, if used properly, can add a lot to skin health and beauty, but users should not be careless.
