Its use at high concentrations (50-70%) and very low pH has exfoliating effects and is used as a chemical peel. The AHA act on the cohesion of the corneocytes in the lower layers of the stratum corneum newly formed causing thinning thereof, thereby enhancing flexibility. Accordingly, the present cosmetic application of AHAs is based on its humectant, and flexibilizer exfoliating power. In studies in photodamaged skin it has been observed physiological and structural improvement to counteract the harmful effects caused by ultraviolet rays.
