Introduction
Glyco-12 Cream is a cream that contains Glycolic acid, which works by increasing the turnover rate of epithelial cells, eventually helping in peeling the skin and treating comedones. It decomposes to release oxygen when applied to the skin, which acts as a bacterial agent and kills Propionibacterium acnes, the bacteria that causes acne.
Directions for Use
Apply Glyco-12 every other day, preferably in the evening, during the first 2 weeks, and every day after this period.
How it works
