Glycolic Acid - Great Effects and Undesired Long Term Consequences!
Glycolic Acid an other hydroxy acids dissolve or exfoliate the outer layer of skin and improve it temporarily, but can cause micro tears and an undesired thickenning of the skin.
Many skin care creams for acne or anti-aging are designed to contain chemicals to speed the turnover of the outer layer of the skin. They are known as alpha-hydroxy and beta-hydroxy acids.
These chemicals dissolve the outer layer of your skin and are thus also commonly known as skin peelers or exfoliants. When used over and over again for a while and in the proper concentration they help to remove damaged, excessively dry skin cells and skin blemishes, and help to keep your skin softer and younger looking.
These creams can also diminish fine lines and wrinkles as they dissolve dead skin. The effect is only temporary. No matter how often or how much cream you apply there action is only superficial not permanent.
Your body's instant reaction to these wear and tear acids is to grow thicker skin, the same way a callus would form on your feet or hands from manual labor or exercise. An automatic reaction to this would be to use more cream to maintain your young fresh appearance or products with higher concentrations of the same acids.
Beware, for the next thing you will know is you are locked into a cycle of thickening skin and skin peelers. This is why cosmeceutical companies recommend that you use the product daily for the best results. Even sometimes a skin peeler is added to your daily moisturizers, but this fact is hidden within the small print of the creams formula makeup. So be cautious when buying a skin cream because the very cream you thought to be safe on your skin could be causing a thickening effect and not a permanent anti-ageing treatment.
The thickening of the skin results in more dead skin cells in pores, and an increased likelihood of micro-tears which invite bacterial invasion and stimulate an immune and histamine inflammatory reaction. Hormones, sun exposure, overly-enthusiastic cleansing regimens, drugs, cosmetics, and some diseases and syndromes can cause the skin to thicken.
And if you are young having more dead skin cells and micro tears which invite bacterial invasion results in an increased likelihood of inflammation and acne infection.
What makes BIOSKINCARE Far Better For Your Skin?
BIOSKINCARE is unique in that it significantly strengthens the walls of individual cells and capillaries, and triggers the proliferation of the water holding and adhesive molecules of the skin matrix while thinning and softening the tissue of the skin. This is achieved by the action of enzymes that dissolve damaged and worn out cells and release their amino-acid components to then be used by the basal stem cells as ingredients for fibroblast proliferation and all the elements of healthy skin, including new collagen and elastin tissues.

“More than 230 Billion USD$ is spent annually worldwide on over-the-counter cosmetic and cosmeceuticals to improve the appearance of ageing skin. Anti-aging cosmetics are touted to erase wrinkles and rejuvenate the skin. When most of the products only serve to camouflage the wrinkles.”, Laura Alonso and Elaine Fuchs ; Stem cells of the skin epithelium; Proc Natl Acad Sci USA . 2003 September, 30.
What Do Our Customers Recommend?
I have been using the cream for about 7 weeks now and I love it. I have noticed a reduction in my deep cystic acne scars caused by to 30 years of acne breakouts. I have had in the past 2 dermabrasions and several chemical peels, years of glycolic acids which reduced the scars somewhat but the cream is definitely working better than all those methods. It has such a calming soothing effect in general on the skin that compares to nothing else I have come across in my search. I believe that it will take time, perhaps about a year, for them to heal at the rate it is going. (...) I am so grateful ad that I found BIOSKINCARE! Irene Sowton. CA, USA.
