'Glycolic Acid is the better and safest peeling agent', of all A.H.A.'s, ' it can stimulate formation of collagen in the superficial dermis, improving skin's vascularity and the elastic fibers of the reticular dermis.' - Romulo Mene, MD

'Using Glycolic, fine wrinkling improved 74% on hands, 74% on forearm & 85% in face, after only four weeks of use' - Armand Newman, MD, FAAD

"Before I began using the (Nancy K. Brown) products my face was red over my check bone area, my pores on my nose and around my mouth/chin were constantly filling up with blackheads and my face was quite bumpy with an uneven texture. After my first Aloe Exfoliant facial I noticed a smoothness to my skin and a shrinking of my pores. I have now used the products (at home) for three weeks and just finished my second facial with the (professional strength) products (in the salon) and my skin feels so soft and smooth." - Colleen L.
