Apply Exfoliation Accelerator to clean, dry skin as directed by your skincare professional.

Because this formula contains alpha hydroxy acids, it can increase the skin's sensitivity to the sun. Always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for one week afterward, as recommended by ZO Skin Health.

If you are new to chemical exfoliation or use other exfoliating or retinoid products, introduce the product according to your dermatologist's recommendations to help minimize the potential for irritation.

Can I use Exfoliation Accelerator every day?

The appropriate frequency depends on your skin type and the rest of your skincare routine. Because it contains a 10% glycolic and lactic acid complex, we recommend following your dermatologist's instructions, particularly if you use other active ingredients.

Can I use Exfoliation Accelerator with retinol?

It may be possible to incorporate both into the same skincare regimen, but combining exfoliating acids with retinoids can increase the potential for dryness and irritation. Your dermatologist can recommend the appropriate frequency and product schedule for your skin.

Does Exfoliation Accelerator make skin more sensitive to the sun?

Yes. ZO Skin Health specifically warns that the AHAs in this product may increase skin sensitivity to the sun and the possibility of sunburn. Use sunscreen, protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using the product and for one week afterward.

Is Exfoliation Accelerator suitable for sensitive skin?

ZO Skin Health lists Exfoliation Accelerator for all skin types. However, because it contains a 10% AHA complex, individuals with sensitive or easily irritated skin should introduce it carefully and follow their dermatologist's recommendations.

What is the difference between Exfoliation Accelerator and a physical exfoliant?

Exfoliation Accelerator uses glycolic and lactic acids to chemically loosen and remove dead surface skin cells rather than relying on physical particles or scrubbing. This makes it a chemical exfoliant that can be incorporated into a targeted skincare routine.
