Fruit acid peeling: My salvation for acne in old age

With the word fruit acid peeling alone, I thought I could feel the burning sensation on my facial skin. But if you suddenly have to deal with pimples in old age and are looking for a solution to this late pubescent problem, you get to grips with this treatment relatively quickly. Should I do it?

This not only gives a natural glow back, but acne patients can reduce deep craters and slowly renew the diseased skin. Nourishing active ingredients penetrate the skin better after a treatment and the skin generally gains more strength to provide itself with moisture. Doesn't sound wrong at first.
