What are AHAs?

Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) are water-soluble acids found in natural sources such as fruits, milk, and sugar. Well-known examples include glycolic acid, lactic acid, and mandelic acid. These acids exfoliate the top layer of the skin, helping to reveal a smoother, more radiant complexion.

How Are They Used?

Dermatologists often use AHAs in peels, serums, and exfoliating treatments to target dullness, fine lines, and uneven skin tone, helping to improve overall skin texture.

AHAs offer benefits like smoother, more radiant skin, reduced dark spots, and diminished fine lines. They boost cell turnover and support moisture retention, making them suitable for many skin types. However, they can heighten sun sensitivity, so using sunscreen is crucial.
