Indication Dosage

Salicylic acid and lactic acid are both types of alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) that can be used in combination to improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. Here are some of the indications for their combined use:

• Exfoliation: Both salicylic acid and lactic acid are effective exfoliants that can help remove dead skin cells and promote the growth of new skin cells. This can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots, and give the skin a smoother, more youthful appearance.
• Acne treatment: Salicylic acid is particularly effective at treating acne because it can penetrate deep into the pores and unclog them. Lactic acid can help to reduce inflammation and soothe irritated skin, making it a good complement to salicylic acid in acne treatment.
• Hyperpigmentation: Both salicylic acid and lactic acid can help to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, such as dark spots and uneven skin tone. Salicylic acid can help to break down melanin deposits in the skin, while lactic acid can help to lighten the skin and promote a more even skin tone.
• Anti-aging: Salicylic acid and lactic acid can both help to improve skin elasticity and firmness, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. They can also help to stimulate collagen production in the skin, which can help to improve skin texture and tone.
