Customer Reviews of Topix Glycolix Elite Treatment Pads 20% 60 Pads
Customer Review: Cheap and effective
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm 22 year old college student, and I've been battling acne for the past decade. I've only had minor scars on my face, but I have some pretty bad ones on my upper back and chest. I've been using RetinA and Benzaclin for a long time, and it's been somewhat effective. Not too long ago, my parents told me that their insurance no longer covers retinA or benzaclin and that I'd be paying somewhere around $200-250 per month or so for these products.
Not really liking the results of the prescriptions as it was, there was no way I was paying that much for it. Then I began to do a little research online. I found that AHA (Alpha hydroxy acids) stimulated the growth of new skin and dissolved away dead skin. So I became interested, and went out to seek the strongest of the AHAs, glycolic acid. I went to Walmart and found an insane amount skin care products. Overwhelmed, and finding it hard to determine how much glycolic acid was in what, I looked online and found this product.
I've only been using it a week on my face/upperback/chest, and I've had several times the results with this product than I had with the years of retinA/benzaclin. Scars are fading, acne has stopped forming, pores are clear and smaller, skin tone is improved, the circles under my eyes are fading, even the small forehead creases that were creeping up on me are smoothing out.
In my small experience, I have advice for some people. Using sunscreen is an absolute must, and moisturizers aren't a bad idea. I've been using a combo, Dove Essential Nutrients Day lotion SPF 15. Some websites say that AHAs increase the effect of moisturizers. Also, don't use it on your face right after shaving.
Cons:
1. Pads stick together sometimes. It can be hard to get one at a time.
2. Despite what I expected, you use these pads to wipe instead of leaving it on the skin, which leaves a very little amount of acid on the skin. I would think that something like MaMa's lotion, while a weaker AHA, would stay on the skin longer and effectively be stronger.
