Buffered and Unbuffered Glycolic Acid
On the difference between buffered and non-buffered glycolic acid
The buffered and non-buffered glycolic acid are different in both sex and use. Buffered glycolic acid, with its buffered agent, can stabilize its pH value. It is also suitable for use, when disturbed by external objects, its pH becomes slow, suitable for those with delicate skin and sensitive to acid and alkali. Because of its softness, it can reduce the thorns on the skin, gradually adjust the skin, promote new keratin generation, rejuvenate the radiance of the skin, and cause less skin discomfort.

As for non-buffered glycolic acid, it has no buffered agent and is highly acidic. When used, it is effective and strong. It can strongly exfoliate, quickly clear the old and waste keratin on the skin, and make the skin look smooth and tender. However, because of its strong acid, it is also large on the skin. Those who have healthy skin and good tolerance may use it, or they can get good results; if the skin is sensitive, it may cause redness, swelling, pain and other diseases.

When used by doctors, the characteristics of the patient's skin must be carefully reviewed. For sensitive skin, it is recommended to buffer glycolic acid to gradually adjust the skin and strengthen the skin barrier; and for those who seek rapid improvement in skin health, or to try non-buffered glycolic acid, they must be taught to carefully observe the skin condition and prevent skin damage from being used.

Workers should also consider the nature of the two when making skin care products. To make mild and protective products, take more buffered glycolic acid; if you want a strong skin rejuvenation product, you can choose non-buffered glycolic acid, but the dose must be strictly controlled to ensure the safety of the user.

In summary, buffered and non-buffered glycolic acid have their own strengths, and the user should be aware of his own needs and choose to use it to obtain the good effect of skin care and avoid skin damage.
