Salicylic acid peel contains Salicylic as the main active ingredient. It helps the skin with acne, blackheads and many other skin problems. However, it is advisable to use these peels under the guidance of a professional.
This process involves applying a chemical solution to the skin, which causes the skin to break down and shed. Different chemicals are used, each having a different depth of effect on the skin, including salicylic acid, lactic acid, glycolic acid, and mandelic acid.
