The skin will be cleansed to remove any dirt or oils.

Next, the Derma Lactic solution will be brushed onto the skin. Typically, one to two coats will be applied for a superficial peel however, additional layers may be applied for a deeper peel.

Additional layers may be applied depending on skin tolerance. You may experience mild stinging or tingling sensations after the solution is applied.

What is a Lactic Peel by Skin Genius MD?

A lactic peel is a high-powered superficial peel that helps restore luminosity to your skin. It works by gently exfoliating the skin’s surface, removing dead skin cells, and promoting fresh, healthy cell turnover. Lactic acid is known for its hydrating properties, making this peel perfect for those seeking smoother, more radiant skin without the harshness of deeper peels.

The treatment is suitable for all skin types and helps to brighten dull skin, reduce fine lines, and improve overall texture—leaving your skin refreshed and glowing.

How it works

A lactic peel uses lactic acid, a gentle alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), to exfoliate the skin’s surface. This peel breaks down the bonds between dead skin cells, allowing them to shed naturally and revealing fresher, healthier skin underneath.

Lactic acid also helps to retain moisture, ensuring the skin stays hydrated while brightening dull areas and promoting a smooth, even texture. The process stimulates cell turnover, reducing the appearance of fine lines and improving skin radiance without causing irritation or downtime.
