Husband's skin pigmentation, everyone wants to solve it. The effect of glycolic acid is quite well studied by the world.
Glycolic acid belongs to the class of fruit acids. Its molecules are slender and can penetrate deep into the skin.

Glycolic acid can promote the shedding and renewal of the stratum corneum cells of the skin, so that the accumulated melanin goes away with the old keratin.
Looking at its effect, first, glycolic acid can inhibit the activity of melanocytes. The formation of melanin depends on the action of various enzymes. Glycolic acid can intervene in this process and reduce the amount of melanin. Second, it can speed up the metabolism of epidermal cells. New cells grow rapidly, old melanocytes dissociate rapidly, the amount of melanin on the surface of the skin decreases, and the pigmentation becomes lighter.
When using glycolic acid, you should also pay attention. It is irritating to a certain extent, and those with sensitive skin may cause discomfort, such as redness and tingling. Therefore, it is advisable to test the sensitivity before use, and gradually increase the concentration and frequency according to the skin's tolerance.
In summary, glycolic acid is indeed effective in pigmentation. Then use the method to review the nature of the skin and weigh the pros and cons to obtain good results and restore the skin to a bright and even state.
