The  Glycopeel 50% from Lanèche (Level 05 in the Beauty Innovation Treatment Program) is more than just a deep-cleansing AHA peel. It is an intensive salon treatment that improves skin structure, stimulates cell renewal, and activates released collagen and elastin fibers. Below, we delve deeper into how this treatment works, what you can expect, and how to optimally implement it in your salon.

What does Glycolic Acid 50% do for the skin?

According to the official description, Glycolic Acid accelerates the desquamation of the stratum corneum, activating deeper skin layers, resulting in: a  stimulating boost of collagen and elastin. From scientific literature, we know that this type of AHA not only exfoliates but also:

• Softens pigment spots and evens out skin tone

• Reduces fine lines by stimulating cell renewal

• Refines skin texture and tackles impurities

 

For which skin types is it suitable?

Glycopeel 50% is the pinnacle treatment within the BITP system, intended for people with firm, mature, or sun-damaged skin where maximum skin renewal is desired.

For sensitive or thick, impure skin, you can start with the  Glycopeel 5% or 10% to give the client a gentle introduction.

 

What can you expect during the treatment?

• Application of Glycopeel 50% to cleansed, dry skin, with exceptions for the eye contours

• Exposure time: just a few minutes (2–3), depending on skin tolerance

• Sensation: slight tingling or warmth, normal at this concentration

• Neutralization and thorough cleansing afterward to prevent irritation

 

Aftercare & optimal results

• Immediately apply a  restorative serum or cream  (preferably from the Lanèche Special Care line)

• Advise no active ingredients  (such as retinol or vitamin C) for the first 24–48 hours

• Sunscreen SPF 30–50 is essential, preferably for several consecutive days

• Schedule the treatment with  rest days in between, depending on skin condition

 

Why Glycopeel 50% is an indispensable step

• Deep rejuvenation: ideal for skin rejuvenation, sun damage, and firm lifting

• Rapid absorption of active ingredients: the skin becomes more receptive to repair, hydration, and lifting

• Valuable salon experience: delivers visible results and increases customer loyalty
