MD Forte

The M.D. Forte alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) skin care system is based on twenty years of glycolic acid research. This research has resulted in products with higher alpha-hydroxy acid levels than those of similar products, which means you get beautiful results with no irritation. AHAs exfoliate the dead cells from the dry external layer of the epidermis, leaving your skin looking healthier and younger. They also limit water loss and improve the moisture-binding ability of the epidermis. The retained moisture helps skin stay smoother and younger-looking while reducing the visual effects of sun damage. One form of AHA is glycolic acid, which is naturally found in sugar cane and is used in M.D. Forte products. It is so effective because of its small molecular size—more active molecules of the compound are available in a concentration; therefore, the skin receives a faster delivery of the acid’s benefits right when and where those benefits are most needed.

However, glycolic acid can be irritating, especially in higher concentrations. M.D. Forte products are unique because they use a process called partial neutralization to maximizing the positive effects of glycolic acid while minimizing irritation. Partial neutralization allows the glycolic acid to be released over an extended period of time. It also raises the pH of the product to be more similar to the pH of human skin. These two effects reduce irritation potential and increase the efficacy of the M.D. Forte glycolic acid products to ensure you receive beautiful results. M.D. Forte’s skin care product line includes cleansers, renewal products, hydrators, daily protectors, and core systems. Working with your physician, M.D. Forte can help you create a unique skin care regimen that will help you reduce fine lines and wrinkles, visibly smooth and soften skin, increase your skin’s hydration, improve your oily or acne-prone skin, and balance your skin tone.
