Reviews For Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare Alpha Beta Extra Strength Daily Peel
Cannot Live Without These
This product has changed my skin. I’ll never not use them. I’ve been using these consistently every other day for the last 4 months and WOW. I have always had clogged pores and blackheads on my nose and chin. These have helped reduce those clogged pores tremendously. Using these in combo with a daily Obagi C Serum have made my skin glow. I have an overall smoother appearance. I travel a lot for work and the packets are perfect for that and keeps me in my skincare routine.

Results you’ll love!
I’ve been using these for approximately four years. As a result of consistent use, my makeup goes on more smoothly and my skin looks brighter. These are a must have for me.

Love This Stuff!
I have been using these peel pads on and off for several years now, and I can definitely say that my skin looks better (clearer and brighter), when I use them. The only reason I don't use them all the time is the steep price tag. If you can afford these, I highly recommend that you try them. Even though they are "extra-strength," I have never found them harsh or irritating like some AHA products. I am blessed with pretty good, normal skin to begin with, but I do get a few hormonal-related blemishes every month. I also have had a few areas of mild discoloration from large pimples that took forever to go away. When I use these pads, I almost never get the obligatory pimples that I would otherwise get during my "time of month." When I do get pimples, these pads help clear everything up faster and help prevent or at least minimize discoloration. That alone makes them worth using. I frequently get compliments on my smooth skin and complexion and I attribute it to these, as well as good genes (thanks, mom!). I have found that I can make these last twice as long by cutting each pad in half, putting the other half back in the packet and sealing the packet in a zip-lock to use the following night. I try to use them about 4-6 nights a week.

Amazing Results!
I bought this for myself to help exfoliate my more mature skin and for my daughter who has mild acne. It has been absolutely amazing for the both of us. We both saw immediate results. For me, it has completely diminished my lines and wrinkles, and my skin is much brighter and younger looking, more dewy fresh. My daughters acne has literally disappeared, and her pores are almost nonexistent. It says after using the first pad to leave on for 10 minutes or so before neutralizing with the second pad, but we let the first pad sit for about 30 minutes trying to get the most exfoliating results we can. Then, we use the second pad to neutralize. The first time we both used it, we noticed mild tingling after using the first pad, but nothing bothersome by any means. It does say to not rinse either product off but we both rinse the neutral off after it has sat for about 30 minutes because our faces feel kinda sticky. But after rinsing, our skin looks so amazing. This will always be a staple in our skin care regimen.

This product really does change the texture of my skin. I use just once a week and definitely see a difference in my skin. And it gives my skin a great glow!

Best Peel Pads Ever
These are convenient, effective and simple. The best part is that they deliver great results (clean pores and glowy skin!) without the sting or burn like similar products on the market! I have sensitive skin and use them 2+ days a week without irritation.

Beautiful Glow
This product gives a beautiful glow after the first use, it is not harsh on my skin and it did not make my skin peel or become sensitive. Very comfortable to use as Dr. Dennis Gross packets help to maintain clean pores, soft glowing skin. A favorite to add to my beauty regimen and in between facials. Elsa

Good for maintenance
These pads provide a good, mild exfoliation. Doesn't cause me to peel or flake, but does create a freshness and glow. I use them once a week on my face, neck and chest because I use a nightly exfoliating toner (lotion P50). So I don't need to use the Gross 2x a week. I think these pads are good for staving off hyperpigmentation (and blemishes if you have them), and helps other products absorb better. But in my opinion, it is not a strong peel--even the extra strength. It's an exfoliant.

Adult Cystic Acne
Female 25~28 year old with sensitive combo skin, never used accutane, used Retin-A for only one month 2 years ago, and use Mario Badescu products (cleanser, moisturizer, facial spray). I was going to an esthetician bi-weekly ($45-50 per treatment, which wasn't unreasonable), where my acne just hurt so badly and lowered my self-esteem so much that I got desperate. After seeing my esthetician for 1.5 years, she raised her prices without telling me, AND made new clients off of my before-and-after pictures, where she gave me zero incentives (no discounts, no free facials--zilch)! Naturally, I got upset and looked elsewhere to get the similar~same results. Upon learning about the extra strength peels, I realized that I wouldn't get ripped off by someone that I dedicated my progress to. I find this quite comparable (less in intensity of course) to the glycolic and pumpkin peels that we used on my face, and it's much cheaper as I use the peels every other day. I no longer have active acne, my cystic scars don''t last nearly as long, and my skin looks insanely smooth and hydrated the morning after. I STILL use this even though I have minimal active acne! Once my scars have gone away, I think I'll bump the peels down to the regular strength peels for maintenance. Needless to say, my confidence jumped back up with the use of these peels! I highly recommend this product for any person struggling with active acne. I'd purchase it through LovelySkin since you get rewards, the frequent 20-25% off, and free shipping. Worth it!

I love this product so much! Combats an acne spot immediately! What used to take weeks for a cystic bump to go away now takes 2 days! Love it!

Exfoliate!!!!
Great product. I would recommend starting with the regular strength if you’re sensitive or just trying a chemical exfoliator. I use once a week. These really help slough any dead or built up skin away. Don’t use on nights or in combination with retinol if you’re a regular retinol user like myself

Good Product
I'm a fan of Dr. Dennis Gross products, especially his peels. I like that his products aren't tested on animals and are effective. These extra strength peels are strong but not too strong that it makes my skin red/flaky. The 5 pack is a good option for when I don't feel like spending over $100 and just need a few. Shipping is super fast.

A staple
This is a perfect solution for skin that tends to break out. It does not dry out the skin. Love that it travels very well!

Great cleanser but...
This product is easy to use, but I didn't see any radical results.

Tried this small pack and loved it
I received a sample of the DDG regular strength peel pads, and I was interested in trying something stronger. I purchased this 5 pack to try. These pads work really well for my sensitive, acne-prone skin. They exfoliate without leaving my skin irritated. My face glows after using them. I liked them so much that I bought the larger size!

This compares to a facial!
I’m unable to get facials right now because of my schedule and the distance to my aesthetician’s office. I received a sample of the regular strength Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Peel Pads, and they did a good job without irritating my sensitive skin. I decided to purchase the extra strength pads after reading the other reviews, and WOW! My skin glows after using them. I had issues with breakouts and clogged pores from a moisturizing cream that needed to be cleared, and these cleared every spot within a week. My skin is brighter and less tired-looking, too. I use a 1% retinol at night, too, and my skin isn’t irritated by this combination. I’m floored–*everything* bothers my sensitive skin but not these! I’m so glad that I made this purchase! Next time, I’ll order the larger box!

Great peel
Great peel. Easy to use. Cloth is large enough to use two times I usually cut it in half and store it back in the package in a Ziploc bag and use it the next week. I only use it once as week with great results .
