Basically, what I said for the AHA Souffle applies to this face cream as well. For the past 5 months, I've been using both AHA products to help minimize my facial scarring. I've noticed some of my scars are smoother and lighter, particularly my birthmark. I have a nice-sized birthmark on the right side of my face and I hate it! I want it gone even though it's one of my trademarks. My various scars are another one of my trademarks.
However, since I have a wedding to attend in June, I'd like to speed up the healing process. I've learned that exfoliation helps speed up the cell-turnover, which reveals more radiant and healthy-looking skin. When I used to work in fast food, my hands made me look older. In fact, when I was in "A" school for the Navy, guys used to think I was 25 because of how my hands looked! That was about two years ago but I always remember that incident every time I look at my hands. So, I've been using this face cream on my hands to keep them supple and younger-looking.
