On the effect of glycolic acid on skin whitening
The color of a husband's skin is related to the beauty of everyone. Recently, the ability of glycolic acid to whiten the skin has attracted much attention.
Glycolic acid belongs to the class of fruit acids, and its molecules are tiny and can penetrate smoothly into the stratum corneum of the skin. The stratum corneum is like the screen of the skin. Glycolic acid can promote the metabolism of keratinocytes. In normal times, old keratinocytes gradually accumulate, causing the skin to be dull. Glycolic acid accelerates its replacement, new tender cells appear on the surface, and the skin feels radiant and radiant.
And glycolic acid can increase the hydration ability of the skin. Moisturizing the skin with water, the light reflection is better, it is like the brilliance of tulle, and the appearance is more uniform and bright.
And it can affect the path of melanin production. Melanin is the main cause of skin color depth. Glycolic acid may inhibit the activity of melanocytes, block melanin synthesis, and reduce the amount of melanin production in the skin, so as to achieve whitening effect.
Use glycolic acid with caution. It has a certain irritation, and those with delicate skin may feel uncomfortable for the first time, such as tingling and redness. Therefore, when using it for the first time, the concentration should be low and the frequency should be slow, so that the skin gradually adapts. And after use, it is necessary to strictly protect the skin and avoid sun exposure to avoid skin damage and deepen the color.
In general, glycolic acid does have potential for skin whitening, but it can be used reasonably and prudently to achieve the desire of whitening and beauty without the risk of skin damage.
