What is Mandelic Acid?
Mandelic acid is a type of alpha hydroxy acid that’s extracted from bitter almonds. Mandelic acid acts as a powerful — yet gentle — exfoliator that breaks up the tiny bonds between dead cells at the skin’s surface, making it an effective component in chemical peels.*
Compared to chemical peels containing salicylic, glycolic or lactic acids, mandelic acid is lower in strength but produces longer-lasting effects.*
Benefits of Mandelic Acid Chemical Peels
Mandelic acid’s gentle peeling effect can be attributed to its molecular structure.
Since its molecules are larger than those found in glycolic acid and other alpha hydroxy acids, mandelic acid takes longer to penetrate the skin’s surface. This makes it less likely to cause irritation.*
As a chemical peel, mandelic acid offers a wide range of treatment benefits:
• Reducing dark spots
• Improving skin texture
• Lightening freckles
• Refining skin tone
• Unclogging skin pores
• Reducing acne
• Lightening skin tone
• Reducing fine lines
• Evening out the complexion
• Being compatible with all skin types
What is particularly nice about mandelic acid peels is that they generally don’t cause a lot of inflammation.* As such, they are a safer option for treating darker skin-type individuals, resulting in less risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or brown discoloration.*
