About LHA Cleansing Gel

SkinCeuticals LHA Cleansing Gel is a targeted exfoliating cleanser formulated specifically for oily, blemish-prone, and aging skin. This advanced gel cleanser features a triple-acid blend of lipo-hydroxy acid (LHA), glycolic acid, and salicylic acid that works synergistically to decongest pores, smooth skin texture, and prepare skin for subsequent treatment products. LHA, a derivative of salicylic acid, provides gentle yet effective exfoliation with anti-bacterial properties, while glycolic acid helps accelerate cellular turnover. The surfactant base thoroughly removes excess oil, makeup, and impurities without over-drying. Regular use helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, minimize pore size, and create a clearer, more refined complexion. This 240ml cleanser is ideal for those dealing with combination concerns of aging and acne, making it perfect preparation for professional treatments.

How to Use

Use twice daily, morning and evening. Apply a small amount to wet skin and gently massage in circular motions for 30-60 seconds, avoiding the eye area. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat dry. Follow with appropriate SkinCeuticals serum and moisturizer. Start with once daily use if new to acid exfoliation, gradually increasing to twice daily as tolerated. Always follow with broad-spectrum SPF during the day.

Pro Tip from Our Clinicians

This cleanser works exceptionally well as prep before our SkinPen microneedling or chemical peel treatments, helping to maximize penetration of active ingredients. For patients with sensitive skin, alternate with SkinCeuticals Gentle Cleanser to prevent over-exfoliation while maintaining the benefits.
