Dr Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Extra Strength Daily Peel for Oily Skin — 30 Two-Step Treatments, 2-Minute AHA/BHA Exfoliation

Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Extra Strength Daily Peel is a two-step, daily at-home chemical peel that combines five AHA/BHA acids with antioxidants and vitamins to clarify oily skin, refine texture, and target signs of aging in just two minutes per treatment.

This extra-strength version of the Alpha Beta Peel is formulated for people who need more active resurfacing: it offers higher concentrations of alpha- and beta-hydroxy acids plus supportive boosters to accelerate removal of dead skin cells and excess oil. Designed as a convenient, fast ritual, each treatment gives visible smoothing and radiance while helping serums and moisturizers absorb better afterward. The kit contains 30 pre-soaked two-step pads for a month of daily use.

How does this two-step peel work to clear pores and reduce oil?

The system uses sequential pads: the first pad prepares and lifts surface debris while the second pad delivers stronger actives to refine pores and calm the skin. The blend of AHAs and BHAs helps to dissolve oil and loosen dead cells that clog follicles, improving clarity and reducing the appearance of enlarged pores over time.

• Step 1: exfoliating solution to remove surface buildup and prime skin
• Step 2: higher-strength acid pad to refine texture and reduce excess oil
• Five-acid combination (AHA/BHA) targets oil, dead skin, and roughness
• Antioxidants and vitamins support skin comfort and appearance

Will the peel help uneven tone and fine lines without harsh irritation?

The extra-strength formula is designed to accelerate exfoliation and reveal fresher skin, which can make tone look more even and soften the look of fine lines with regular use. While it is more potent than the classic formula, the two-step approach and added soothing ingredients aim to balance efficacy with tolerability; however, sensitive skin types should introduce it gradually.

• Higher acid concentrations for faster surface renewal
• Antioxidant and vitamin support to help improve skin appearance
• Short contact time (two minutes) reduces prolonged irritation risk
• Recommended patch testing and gradual introduction for sensitive skin

How soon will I see results and how should I fit it into my routine?

Many users notice immediate radiance and smoother texture after a single use; cumulative improvements in pore size, tone, and fine lines typically appear with daily application over weeks. Use in the morning or evening on clean, dry skin, follow with SPF in daytime and continue with your usual serums and moisturizer after the treatment.

• Visible glow often after one treatment
• Best results with consistent, daily application as directed
• Apply sunscreen after daytime use to protect newly exposed skin
• Compatible with most skincare routines once skin has acclimated

Is this product safe for all skin types and what are the product credentials?

The formula is presented as suitable for a wide range of skin types, including oil-prone and combination skin, but extra strength means users with sensitive or reactive skin should proceed cautiously. The product is vegan, paraben-free, and cruelty-free, reflecting Dr. Dennis Gross’ clinical skincare background and emphasis on professional-grade at-home treatments.

• Vegan, paraben-free, and cruelty-free formulation
• Packaged as 30 two-step treatments for one month of daily use
• Developed by dermatologist Dr. Dennis Gross with clinical experience
• Recommended patch test for sensitive or reactive skin types

Who is this for: This peel is aimed at people with oily or combination skin, visible texture or enlarged pores, and those seeking a higher-strength daily resurfacer to address uneven tone or early signs of aging. If you have highly sensitive skin, active dermatitis, or are using other potent exfoliating prescriptions, consult a dermatologist before integrating this extra-strength peel into your regimen.
