I have been using glycolic, lactic, salicylic acids. Also AHA & BHA solutions for s few years, and my skin is good. You just need to know, not to over use it. I keep a journal with products I use daily. To keep track and not to over use products. I also buy “the Ordinary” products and they don’t break the bank and I love them. I’m about to be 43 and no one believes me. People say I look 32 at most. But, ladies, don’t forget to drink water and green tea, leafy greens and berries, dark chocolate 🍫, face yoga and massage. And avoid stress. ❤❤❤ love you all. ❤❤❤
I’m glad I’ve been using glycolic acid since my teens. Not on daily basis, but gradual and increased over the years. Sometimes I take a break, but I go back to it. Gradually, then increase, the same cycle. Also, wearing sunscreen because it could make your skin more sensitive to the sun, and reapply sunscreen every two hours on those sunny/bright days. Thank you for sharing the proof that glycolic works!
@@ryannestrife1003 Hello, The best price with trusted quality is Reversa skin smoothing body lotion 10%glycolic acid on my face and body. Neostrata have a good one, but more costly. I will also buy ZO Skin Health complexion pads. I love to use that on my ears, behind my neck, and face. I think it was Dr. Rajani, Dr. Dray and another doctor (youtuber) from California, all say the same thing, glycolic acid is one of the cheapest ingredient, and it actually works.
sunblock has been proven to cause cancer. Remember Big Pharma's "solutions" are really made to keep you as their customer for life, and to shorten that life. Look @ the talcum powder lawsuits. Hello.
My daughter makes pain salves one day as I was helping her study I realized most of the plants could be used in a anti aging salve. Now I make my own and know exactly what I am putting on my face. Ginger is a great deep line reducer. Yes I have results jaw line picked up frown line gone❤😊
Since watching Dr. Rajani's videos, I have ordered the castor, almond and coconut oils, I love them and have stopped using regular lotion, I use the oils now. I like them way better and I noticed when I did try to use one of my body lotions the other day, I did not like the way it felt on my skin, it irritated it. It does have a fragrance and I think the more I use natural products, the more my body will reject these other products that contain a scent, like lotions. It says vegan, no parabens , etc but the fragrance isn't good for us, either.
Those of us with oil & acne prone skin were lucky in a way - exfoliation, mechanically or otherwise, became our best friend to help. This was in the era before acids were widely available. I remember starting to use Origins NightAMins 25 years ago just by the way it made my skin feel and look - now I know its the alpha acids in the product. I still use it, a great moisturiser. And I have good, thick skin in my 50s.
@@MeMe-41 I have been making my own from watching a Dr on RUclips. I have a nano sprayer. Then, and I put a dried cap (one gram ) of amanita muscaria in a 1/3 glass of water then next day I strain the water into a little jar and add a bit of vegetable glycerin and a bit of Ylang ylang oil, about five drops. I shake well and spray. The ibotenic acid makes a good exfoliation. I just used some. It does feel somewhat trippy of strong.
Probably 20 years ago when I was at the plastic surgeons office, the aesthetician offered me either retin A or glycolic. She said I can only use one….. so I tried each one and of course I went for glycolic because retina made my face mess and glycolic acid was instant gratification so I was using 20% pads for years and years now that I’m 63 last year introduced to Trentinoin I am using that at night …with glycolic in the mornings at 10% and not every single morning and I think this really made a difference in my skin
@@maleyalove3447 tretinoin with a brighter and skin repair cream every night. Take a break once a week apply glycolic leave it over night and wash off in the morning those were the instructions from my dermatologist 6 years ago. I get green peels once a year in the winter, but I stop using tretinions and glycolic acid for a week before my peel.
I’m 30 and have been using retin A for four years and just started implementing a glycolic acid mask on the opposite days and it has been GAME changer!!!
I started using Nip + Fab glycolic acid pads and I've been using them every night with no side effects. I probably have thicker skin than most people. But I can already see a difference.
I've got the Mad Hippie AHA Exfoliating Peel (glycolic acid) Serum. This is really good & is gentle👍😊. I use this every other night followed by vitamin triple c cream.
My problem is that i break out so badly from alot of products i try, it could be purging as I've heard, but when you're getting painful red cyst type spots everywhere it puts me off 😮
I have a product I really love, a lactic acid toner by Fermented. It used to sting in the beginning but now I can use it almost everyday. I’ve had comments about my skin looking brighter and clear. It doesn’t say what percentage it is though. Sometimes I would rather leave it on my face than having to rinse it off.
I apply tretinoín once a week (currently with the sandwich method), glicolic acid twice a week and salysilic acid once a week, the other nights I just apply hyaluronic acid and cerave night cream, I think I'll continue like this for a while 😁. Thanks for the info desr doctor ❤
I have always been concerned with skin getting THICKER when you dermed it off, scraped it off or melted it off. Kind of like the bottom of your feet. Your body tells it oh nO!! We gotta get thicker! Our skin is getting ground away, scraped away chemed away! We gotta get thicker to protect ourself! Your elbows, finger tips, knees they get thicker. I dont know. I wish we didnt even have to worry so much about things like wrinkles or age period. I lost my husband to some flusy that was in her 20's. Im 54. How do i compete with that?! I cant. I didnt. I told him to leave it everything was so much better. He did. Now have to un-hear his words of body shame, age shame and try to gather enough confidence and start DATING again? Or die alone...
Dr R using AHA Firming and Your Retinol for a awhile now and alternating nights as per blueprint instructions. If tolerated do you ever recommend both every night? Appreciate all you do!!
Hello Dr. Rajani. I so appreciate your videos...they are very informative and easy to understand...thank you. I currently use a Retinol Serum and a Hyaluronic Acid Serum daily. I am very fortunate to not have wrinkles at 60 but I am noticing my skin is starting to go slack around my mouth, jawline and neck areas. I want to try the glycolic serum but I cannot use sunscreen. Should I just use the glycolic serum at night or only once or twice a week or not at all. Any suggestions would be helpful and appreciated. Thank you again.
Stem cells have telomerase but it is insufficient to fully counter telomere depletion. Dr Bill Andrews showed that if you take old cells and induce sufficient telomerase they create thick young skin indistinguishable from young.
Thank you for posting this video. I had some C I purchased and only after receiving it saw it had AHA in it which made me hesitant to use it, now I can. Thank you.
5 to 10 percent is great, and most creams like mine one can simply start 1 a week and work up to 3 to 5 times a week depending on response and sensitivity.
Hello Doc ! Love from India. I love all your videos as they are very informative. I would love to use your products but not able to purchase from India.
Do you recommend this process to help older folks who have senile purpura or super fragile skin thinning that bruises and breaks open with barely a tap? My husband has this issue and he takes no medication of any kind and is very healthy. The poor thing can't even put his hands in his denim pants pockets without coming out bruised and scraped. You'd think his arms would be tough from scar tissue with as many times as his skin has split open but it's still just as fragile. He's really good about moisturizing so I wonder if the glycolic acid could help.
I really do not have deep lines, fine ones on my forehead and a little around my eyes is what I do have. Dr. Rajani, would you recommend two products for me, I was thinking of the glycolic pads or the retinol pads when you get them in again and the moisturizing cream to put on after I use the pads. Is this okay? I do not have any skin issues, no major concerns yet, just maintaining and preventative. I do use products from Hylunia, the hyaluronic acid, Vit C serum, but I think the C serum has changed because it really did work. But now, I am noticing, it is not as strong as it used to be. They are organic products, no fragrance, which I like, as I know, fragrance causes inflammation in the body and that in turn, causes aging, so we are kidding ourselves when we buy products that contain fragrance. Or do you recommend a C serum instead of a glycolic? This is where I get stumped as to what to pick, thanks!
Try castor oil, very moisturizing, wrinkle reducer, plumps skin, heals skin, won't hurt eyes & is great for growing longer eyelashes. So many health benefits, research it!
Maybe I can help with the hair loss. I was losing mine to thyroid meds so I started using saw palmetto, natures craft, Amazon and biotin and it works!! Just takes time
Dr rajani I buy the combo set 158.00 aha and his moisturizer people think I'm 50 but I'll be 76 in June I also bought a Dr pen set from temu for my mouth wrinkles it stings but it's worth it
Can I use the tightening cream then for moisturizer use castor oil? I have been using hydrosol mist then a combo of castor oil and Jamaican black castor oil on my face every night and it has been looking really good but the picture you have that promoted this video. I look like the person on the left with the tightness, especially around my lip line and sagging around that area as well, so I would love to use the firming lotion, but would it be OK to use the castor oil after? I can really only afford one and it seems like I would benefit more from the firming cream…. If not a good idea to pair with castor oil, any suggestions for good moisturizer?
lactic acid makes my skin happy, but I use it nearly every day. I find that I don't even need daily moisturizer. I slug my face with tallow on top of the lactic acid a couple times a week, but just the acid alone makes my skin dewy and moist feeling all day. IS EVERY DAY TOO MUCH? I'M NOT GETTING ANY DRYING, SO FAR.
I have rosacea and eczema. What so you recommend? Im trying to rebuild my skin barrier. So many things sting so I avoid. Stuff coming to the surface like you said bumps etc Should I follow the tips in this video or do you have good recs dor eczema/ rosacea and rebuilding skin barrier?
Questions regarding the study? 6 months but how many times a week? If someone could answer that for me it's very much appreciated.. please and thank you
Hi Doctor, I live in Miami and I like to be in the sun at least 45 min per day. I use sunscreen ( 30 spf ) and I have several spots in my face caused I think by the sun. My skin is very sensitive and white and I am 56 years old. Can I use glycolic acid during the summer? I ve used it previously and I think my spots were made because of that plus my exposure to the sun. What can I do? I would appreciate your advice. THANKS !
Should we use that just like twice a week and then do the retinol creams before bed on the other days how do we use that with our retinol cream? Thank you very much.
Can you do please a Video about combinations of Vitamin C and Retinol and acids. Can I use AHA together with Vitamin C or Retinol? How could be skin care Routine with acids when I already use Vitamin C and Retinol. As I am 36 must I use Vitamin C Serum and Retinol serum every day or should I so Breaks?
Hi Dr.Rajani! The one confusion I get is the synthetic vitamin E ( not the natural E) In many publications, even I checked in pubmed, indicates some analysis resulted synthetic E increases the cancer risk greatly. Because of this, I don't buy any skin care containing E, which contains always synthetic version. What do you think about synthetic E, please?
You bring up a great point. There are some "links" but in other trials it is protective. It would be a good video for a deep dive. People unfortunately don't sometimes watch the deep dive videos. Attention spans are so short. But at this point I m comfortable using them. If you want an in depth video I ll make one.
@rajanimdskincare Thank you for your reply. It would be great if you made an indept video on vitamin E - synthetic, natural. There might be other people as well with some questions in their mind related to the topic. Thank you.
Hi Doc! So I am wondering what is really the difference between moisturizing and hydration and how important is it to differentiate?? Also love your channel! Thanks from the mountains in southwest Pennsylvania!
I've wondered this too. I "think" moisturization is from the outside in. I.e.the moisturizer we apply on to our body. Hydration is from the inside out, i.e. drinking water.
If inflammation ages you prematurely, then why is microneedling - the whole point of which is to cause inflammation so new collagen can be stimulated - considered anti aging? What about HA fillers in the face? They too cause major inflammatory response. Or sculptra, all of these in theory should do the opposite and age your skin.
Anyone knows if its better to start with retinoids or glicolic acid? i were using retinoids but i dont know if glicoloc is better, also i started using a serum of niacinamide, should i use retinoids?
I saw somewhere that you cannot use a peptide moisturizer with a glycolic acid...that the glycolic acid will basically make the peptides inactive. Is there any truth to this? Is there a certain moisturizer that we should be using with glycolic acid? I'm new to your channel and have been very happy to go back through older videos and learn about skin care!
Dr Rajani, thsnks fir this video. Is it safe to use glycolic to thicken uber eye skin? If not, what to use please? And is it suitable for the neck too? Thanks 🙏
I feel like I’m always commenting asking for more video topics 😅, but I’m always just so interested in your input and adore your content! Very curious on your take on what to do if you’re one of the people that retinol/retinoids seemingly doesn’t work for, despite doing everything “right” - using a gradual process, low strength, etc. (causes substantial breakouts: skin barrier disruption - beyond a “purging” phase) Do you feel it is as simple as some people just don’t tolerate retinol well and have to manage with other tactics/procedures? Or is it the trick of finding and trialing a multitude of retinols until you find one that suits you? 🤍🤍
How often should you use it with retinol. I have been using regional almost every night for some time. I have experienced problems when trying to use an acid.
I have been using glycolic, lactic, salicylic acids. Also AHA & BHA solutions for s few years, and my skin is good. You just need to know, not to over use it.

Applying anything after a shower makes skin feel better but coconut oil doesn’t get rid of dead skin.

Can you use with retinol? And is this okay for people with sensitive skin/rosacea?

Great topic!!! Can you apply glycolic and retin a on top?
Glycolic acid is not good for skin of colour, unless it’s below 5%..
Mandelic & Lactic, is better suited!
Hi Dr.Rajani! The one confusion I get is the synthetic vitamin E ( not the natural E) In many publications, even I checked in pubmed, indicates some analysis resulted synthetic E increases the cancer risk greatly. Because of this, I don't buy any skin care containing E, which contains always synthetic version. What do you think about synthetic E, please?
You bring up a great point. There are some "links" but in other trials it is protective. It would be a good video for a deep dive. People unfortunately don't sometimes watch the deep dive videos. Attention spans are so short. But at this point I m comfortable using them. If you want an in depth video I ll make one.
@rajanimdskincare Thank you for your reply. It would be great if you made an indept video on vitamin E - synthetic, natural. There might be other people as well with some questions in their mind related to the topic. Thank you.
Thank you for your information
My pleasure
You are the best love your videos your products always go in to be your customer
I very very much appreciate that
I like to use Amlactin but it tends to be sticky. I have very dry sensitive skin so I stop using products too soon. Great advise Dr. Rajani
Thanks for sharing!!
Sunscreen causes cancer. Would this type of acid treatment work under my beard?
It only thins the epidermis, so your face will be photosensitive for 7 days and that's why sunscreen is so important.
I watched the entire video but have no idea what to get or what glycolics are.. Can you provide some links of what to get?
Store.rajanimd.com they are under night creams
@rajanimdskincare Could you recommend a couple good ones? I am completely new to this.. This is actually the first time i've heard anything like this
Hi Dr. Rajani. Do you have any videos on Tixel? Do you recommend it? Thanks!!! Love your videos.
I also would like to know what you think of Tixel doctor?
Hi Doc!
So I am wondering what is really the difference between moisturizing and hydration and how important is it to differentiate??
Also love your channel! Thanks from the mountains in southwest Pennsylvania!
I've wondered this too.
I "think" moisturization is from the outside in. I.e.the moisturizer we apply on to our body. Hydration is from the inside out, i.e. drinking water.
Hi Doc I use tretinoin every night when would I use the glycolic?
Good question! I hope he addresses it.
Pretty sure you'd just skip the tretinoin if using glycolic - think that was answered above "be kind to your skin" (& don't hit it with both)
Love ur channel thank u 🙏 ❤
You are so welcome thank you
If inflammation ages you prematurely, then why is microneedling - the whole point of which is to cause inflammation so new collagen can be stimulated - considered anti aging? What about HA fillers in the face? They too cause major inflammatory response. Or sculptra, all of these in theory should do the opposite and age your skin.
Study short and long term inflammation
Anyone knows if its better to start with retinoids or glicolic acid? i were using retinoids but i dont know if glicoloc is better, also i started using a serum of niacinamide, should i use retinoids?
What do you think about the multi cologen peptide powder ?
Love it and here is my video on that:

Thank you 💜💜💜😎
You are so welcome
You just reminded me if my night routine 😅 thanks
What can sensitive skin people do, a small amount of AHAs, or even PHA could be helpful?
I saw somewhere that you cannot use a peptide moisturizer with a glycolic acid...that the glycolic acid will basically make the peptides inactive. Is there any truth to this? Is there a certain moisturizer that we should be using with glycolic acid? I'm new to your channel and have been very happy to go back through older videos and learn about skin care!
I have never seen that happen..I wonder what peptides they are referring to?
Do you have a product for your body to tighten that up too for those not on bioidenticsl which DOES keep your skin younger?
Dr Rajani, thsnks fir this video. Is it safe to use glycolic to thicken uber eye skin? If not, what to use please? And is it suitable for the neck too? Thanks 🙏
Try coster oil for under the eye's
@thelight9972 you mean castor oil?
@rane655 yes, sorry, castor oil under the eye's, for me its the only eye's "serum" I use
I would like to know if I want to buy creams from you as they seem amazing can you buy small sizes only to make sure it’s suitable?
I feel like I’m always commenting asking for more video topics 😅, but I’m always just so interested in your input and adore your content! Very curious on your take on what to do if you’re one of the people that retinol/retinoids seemingly doesn’t work for, despite doing everything “right” - using a gradual process, low strength, etc. (causes substantial breakouts: skin barrier disruption - beyond a “purging” phase)
Do you feel it is as simple as some people just don’t tolerate retinol well and have to manage with other tactics/procedures? Or is it the trick of finding and trialing a multitude of retinols until you find one that suits you? 🤍🤍
Absolutely. Not everyone should be on a retinol. Keep me updated and thanks for a great question
Hi Dr I want to say I love you very much I need your help I’m sad I have mouth line what do you
Great looking shirt 😊
How often should you use it with retinol. I have been using regional almost every night for some time. I have experienced problems when trying to use an acid.
I use retinol at night. When can I use glycolic, or is it a bad combo?
Great advice, but how best to use with tretinoin to avoid inflammation?
What do you recommend for the Body? How to approach that? What products, What % of body area per what time frame? Do you have a protocol for that? :)
Many options including retinols threads sculptra rf etc
Wwooooowww , you are really amazing, whst a golden info...thanks
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching
Thank you Dr!!
Is 10% for the body enough? And how important is the PH? How low should it be to work? ❤
Hi Doctor. You have a youthful looking neck… what do you do to keep it youthful and lifted? Thank you.
Thank you. I avoid sun damage firstly. I use glycolic there 1 per week, retinols 1 per week and plasmarestore volufiline daily. Hope that helps
Is glycolic acid safe to use during pregnancy? I know retinol are a no-go.
Hi Doc my skin is 62 and of colour am i better with salsalic acid please advice thank you from scotland 😊
When it says patients applied these acids for 6 months in the study it doesn’t say how often..Daily?🧐
Is glycolic good for helping reduce dark spots on a darker skin tone?
I got the Ordinary matrixyl and niacimide combination for this and its been amazing, works in a few days!
