Summary: 5 Stars
I have had bad skin since my late teens. Mostly from not knowing how to take care of my skin, and listening to the wrong people about how to take care of my skin. I used to bust bumps with needles when I was a teenager, and in my early to mid 20's, not knowing that I was doing damage to my skin. I have a lot of acne scars, big pores, pock marks and discoloration.
I have that type of skin that if I stand under a light, my cheek area and temple area look like someone, or thing has been biting on me with sharp teeth. Pock marks galore. It had gotten to a point where I did not like what I was seeing when I looked in the mirror, and it appeared that it was getting worse. I had become very self conscience and leary of getting close to people in conversation because of my skin.
I am African American, a light complexion, but not real light. I am a fairly handsome 43 years young male, who only looks 23, but, the bad skin truly takes away from appearance and what I really look like. I remember when I had baby smooth skin when I was young and I truly want that back. A couple of years ago, I called and inquired about getting laser surgery to correct my bad skin, but I was told that laser surgery was not for African Americans.
I was a little shocked, because I thought that laser surgery should be for whoever wants it, regardless of their nationality. I also called a doctors office about laser surgery and a peel and was told that it was nothing that could be done about my scars or pock marks. So, I took it as me just having to live with bad skin for the rest of my life.
I tried all types of coco butter to lighten and smooth my scars, but it really didn't do anything. I tried different types of vitamin E creams and moisturisers and they did make my skin a little better, but it did nothing for the scaring or the total doing away with dark spots.
One day last week, while I was looking at myself in the mirror, I said to myself, I am better than this. This is not who I am. I said, I want a new beginning with my skin. I realised that the areas of my skin that was damaged was dead. I mean, you could look at it and see that there was no life to it. It was a light grayish looking.
I was sitting on on my bed and lookig out of the window and thinking about what could be done to heal my damaged skin, and I heard the words, chemical peel. Amazon came to mind, and I looked up chemical peel. I read a lot of reviews before I decided to get the 35%. I was scared, but, what did I have to loose, nothing else was working for me.
I received the peel on 12/29. I tried a little area on my forearm, but I didn't feel anything. Ok, I started to feel a little disappointed because I read some reviews that said when they received their peel, that it was water and it didn't work. So, I went for it and put some of the peel on a cotton ball and put it on my face and I could feel it working as soon as it hit my skin.
It burned, but not where I couldn't stand it. I started at my forehead and came around to my temples, cheeks, nose, chin and by my ears. I tell you, I could actually feel it getting down into my skin, and I saw a change in the bad areas right away. Seriously, it was like the peel was eating away the old skin.
I left it on for more than 4 minutes, but not past 10 minutes. I washed my face in cool water really good and pat dried it. There was little reddish irritated areas on my left cheek bone area, but that went away after I put Good'N'Natural pure vitamin E oil on my face. This was about 6pm, and after I put on the vitamin E oil, I could still feel a tingling in my skin, all over. I kid you not, even after I went to bed after 8:30pm, I could still feel the tingling throughout the night.
When I woke up this morning and looked in the mirror, some of my pours had gotten smaller, and some of the pock marks are gone, and the other pock marks are not as outstanding as they were. Matter of fact, the ones on my temple cant be seen, and my skin has a glow to it and looks good. I am not kidding. I had a lot of uneven tone and spots on my forehead area and that has evened out some and the spots have gotten lighter.
I had this nice size scar on my right cheek bone that was dark in color and it could clearly be seen. The mark has gotten smaller, and it has faded a little, but I know as I continue to use the peel, that mark is going to totally disappear, I can see it.
I had a nice size semi dark spot on my left temple, and you can barely see it now. This peel is mangnigicant. I keep looking at myself in the mirror, and it keeps getting better. All of this only after one use. Already I can stand the 35% with no problem, so when I use it tonight, I am going to leave it on for 10 minutes. I will use this and then go to the 50%, if I need to.
I plan to use the 35% every night. If not on my entire face, I will spot treat areas that I want to totally disappear, and from what I am seeing and feeling, a clean, clear beautiful new layer of skin is emerging. I ordered some Ponds Rejuveness anti-wrinkle with Lacto-nutrients & Collagen Cream.
I read a womans review on this and she said that this is good for someone who does peels, because it also has lactid acid which helps with pours and firmness of skin and wrinkles. Once I receive it, I will put the Ponds cream on as a moisturizer after I use the peel. This combination should really make my skin look fantastic. Until then, I will use the pure vitamin E oil as a moisturizer
It appears like the women really know how to take care of skin, so, I am following their lead on this one. Its working so far. Thank you ladies. Sorry men, we suck in this category. I am happy about whats happening and I am feeling better about myself more and more. It is now 4:55pm EST, and as I write this, I can still feel tingling in my left and right cheek and some on my forehead and left temple area, no lie! This stuff works!
Thank you Skin Laboratory for caring about our skin, and taking the time to create an inexpensive chemical peel that works just as good as paying hundreds of dollars for. If you have been thinking about getting this kind of face peel, do it. It will make you feel so good about what you see. If you get it, and it doesn't do what you want, you may need a higher percentage. Don't give up, keep trying, even if your told that nothing can be done. Faith is the key to move mountains and to change situations. Prosper, and be in good health, even as your soul prospers. Live well. :)
Description of Glycolic Acid 35% Gel Peel, 30ml (Professional)
Glycolic Acid is a superficial peeling agent that is made from sugar cane. It is often considered the most active and beneficial of the Alpha-Hydroxy-Acids (AHA).
Glycolic/35 works beneath the skin to stimulate collagen and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Working below the surface there is generally very little visible peeling with the Glycolic/35.
With repetitive and continuous use, improvement to skin tone and texture occurs.
Once inside the skin's cell, glycolic acid will serve as a catalyst for the formation of new collagen which will reduce the appearance of wrinkles on the skin's surface.
Glycolic acid has been proven to be very effective in the treatment of hyperpigmentation, melasma, actinic keratosis, acne, and oily skin, as well as other cosmetic uses.
