Question : What do you think of lactic acid peels on african american skin ?

Answered by Dr. P V S Prasad (5 hours later)

Hello
Lactic acid peels are widely known. They are safe like glycolic acid. Any peel works better only in white skin followed by brown and finally black skin. So it must be slightly better in african american skin.
If you have any more doubts I am willing to clarify
Thanks for posting query
