Glyco 12 Cream 30 gm is used to treat skin problems like acne (pimples), acne scars, melasma, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and photoaging (premature ageing of the skin caused by repeated exposure to UV radiation). Glyco 12 Cream 30 gm has antibacterial, antioxidant, keratolytic (remove warts, calluses), comedolytic (inhibits the formation of blemishes), and anti-inflammatory activity.
Glyco 12 Cream 30 gm contains ‘Glycolic acid’ which works by increasing the turnover rate of epithelial cells (cells that line the surface of the skin), eventually helps in peeling the skin and treating comedones (skin-colored, small bumps due to acne). Glyco 12 Cream 30 gm kills bacteria, reduces inflammation, and unplugs blocked pores. It decomposes to release oxygen when applied to the skin. This oxygen acts as a bactericidal agent and kills Propionibacterium acnes, the bacteria that causes acne.
