Clarena Acid Cleanser 500ml

Before Acid Treatment Lotion is a professional pre-peel preparation formulated with 7% glycolic acid to effectively cleanse, degrease and prepare the skin before chemical exfoliation treatments. Designed as the essential first step in professional acid-based procedures, this specialised lotion helps remove excess sebum and surface impurities, creating optimal conditions for the subsequent stages of treatment.

The formula combines effective cleansing with the exfoliating properties of glycolic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) known for its ability to loosen the bonds between dead skin cells and promote surface renewal. By preparing the epidermis and removing excess oil, the lotion helps create a more uniform skin surface before the application of professional chemical peels.

Suitable for professional protocols involving various skin types, the lotion provides a practical and effective preparation stage for targeted exfoliating and skin-renewal treatments.

Active Ingredient

• Glycolic Acid (7%) – An alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) recognised for its exfoliating and skin-renewing properties. Glycolic acid helps loosen the bonds between dead epidermal cells, encouraging their removal and promoting a smoother, more refined skin surface. It is widely used in professional skincare to improve the appearance of uneven texture, fine lines and blemish-prone skin. Glycolic acid is also associated with supporting collagen and glycosaminoglycan production, contributing to improved skin texture and elasticity over time.

 

How Does It Work?

The lotion works by combining surface cleansing, sebum removal and glycolic acid exfoliation to prepare the epidermis for professional chemical peeling procedures.

By removing excess oil and helping loosen accumulated dead skin cells, it leaves the skin thoroughly prepared for the next treatment steps. This preparation stage supports consistent application of subsequent exfoliating products within a professionally controlled treatment protocol.

 

Who Is It Suitable For?

• Clients undergoing professional acid-based facial treatments.

• All skin types, subject to professional skin assessment and suitability.

• Skin requiring thorough cleansing and degreasing before chemical exfoliation.

• Oily and combination skin with excess surface sebum.

• Skin with uneven texture or accumulated dead surface cells.
