Philoderm 70% AHA Peeling is a professional chemical peel formulated with 70% glycolic acid to achieve intensive epidermal exfoliation and stimulate skin regeneration. Due to its small molecular size, glycolic acid penetrates efficiently into the skin and promotes rapid cell turnover.

The formulation induces controlled epidermolysis, leading to the removal of damaged and keratinised skin layers while stimulating collagen production and improving skin structure. This results in smoother skin texture, improved elasticity and a more even skin appearance.

The gel-based formulation, supported by xanthan gum, allows controlled and uniform application, ensuring precision during treatment.

Philoderm 70% AHA Peeling is commonly used for the treatment of advanced photoaging, rough and thickened skin, fine lines and superficial wrinkles as well as acne scars. Due to its high concentration, it is intended for experienced practitioners and requires careful monitoring during application.

Typical treatment areas include the face, neck and décolleté.
