Poly Hydroxy Acids

Updated: Mar 29, 2024

Poly Hydroxy Acids (PHAs) are key ingredients in skincare, comprising gluconolactone, galactose, and lactobionic acid. PHAs, being water-soluble, are particularly suitable for individuals with sensitive skin due to their larger molecular size, making them gentler than Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs). This group of hydroxy acids aims to delicately exfoliate the skin, promote skin cell turnover, and diminish the appearance of skin damage, dehydration, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Gluconolactone:
This PHA effectively eliminates excess oil, reduces the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles, and dissolves dead skin cells. Its gentle exfoliation targets the skin's surface, making it well-tolerated for individuals with sensitive skin.
Galactose:
Regarded as an antioxidant, galactose serves to shield the skin from environmental aggressors like pollution, climate variations, heat, and sun exposure, preventing their detrimental effects.
Lactobionic Acid:
As a PHA, lactobionic acid boasts antioxidant properties, offering protection against free radicals that could harm the skin. Its primary purpose is to enhance skin tone, texture, radiance, address hyperpigmentation, and contribute to hydration.
For personalized advice on selecting the most suitable PHAs for your skincare routine, consider booking a consultation appointment for more information. This will enable a skincare professional to assess your specific needs and recommend the most effective PHA formulations tailored to your skin type.
