Why a progressive system?
Research shows that the skin builds a resistance to a particular AHA,
so the benefits begin to diminish. The Pelactiv system changes the
combination of AHA’s at each step to ensure performance and results
are always maintained. As the skin becomes more accustomed to an
AHA procedure, the progressive system increases in strength to allow the
skin to receive continued full benefits.

pH Potential Hydrogen
The pH scale was established around the turn of the 20th century as a convenient
way of measuring acidity of alkalinity in a solution.
The pH ranges from a value of 0 (very acidic) to 14 (very alkaline) with 7 being the
neutral. Scientifically, the pH is the most important factor for AHA effectiveness.
A lower pH improves results. Our skin’s pH is between 5.5 and 6 (acidic). Pelactiv
products have a lower or equal pH.
