How this peel works
This 20% lactic acid peel hydrates while it gently exfoliates the very top layer of skin. The formula combines lactic acid with two additional lightening agents to soften texture and reduce visible discoloration without deep resurfacing. The procedure targets superficial buildup and uneven tone, producing softer, more hydrated, visibly lighter-looking skin after treatment.
Because the treatment is a superficial exfoliation, results depend on the skin’s starting condition and the follow-up care you follow. Many clients notice improved texture and brightness after a single session; a treatment plan can be recommended if you want enhanced or longer-lasting improvement, always determined during an in-clinic consultation.
What to expect during treatment
A 20% Lactic Acid Peel appointment at The Healthy Glow Studio lasts 40 minutes and is priced at $75. The visit includes a short consultation, the peel application, and time to discuss aftercare. The procedure is described as first-time-friendly and is intended to provide superficial exfoliation with immediate hydration rather than aggressive resurfacing.
Aftercare emphasizes hydration and sun protection, especially in our humid subtropical climate around Mascotte where lake recreation and commuter lifestyles increase sun exposure. We often recommend pairing the peel with our Pineapple Enzyme for added brightening; timing and combinations are planned to fit evening or weekend appointments for busy families and commuters.
Suitability and limitations
This peel is designed as an entry-level professional peel for people with uneven skin tone, rough texture, or mild discoloration who want a hydrating, gentle option. It’s not intended as a deep depigmentation procedure; clients with more persistent or deeper pigmentation may be advised about alternative professional options during consultation.
If you need stronger resurfacing or targeted depigmentation, our clinic offers other professional peels and TCA options that can be discussed and scheduled. Treatment recommendations consider your skin history, goals, and the practicalities of your schedule — convenient for clients traveling from Clermont, Groveland, Montverde and nearby communities.
