Product Overview
Dr. Lara Devgan Alpha Beta Hydroxy Pads are pre-saturated exfoliating pads formulated with 5% glycolic acid, 5% lactic acid, and 2% salicylic acid. The blend combines surface exfoliation with oil-soluble pore clarification in one leave-on step.
Regular use helps remove accumulated surface cells, refine the look of uneven texture, and keep congested or blemish-prone skin looking clearer. A botanical complex is included to help balance the feel of the concentrated acid formula.
Recommended For
- Oily, combination, congested, or blemish-prone skin.
- Visible pores, uneven texture, and dull surface buildup.
- Experienced acid users seeking a convenient leave-on exfoliating step.
- Sensitive or acid-naive skin should introduce the pads gradually and avoid combining them with other strong exfoliants in the same routine.
Texture and Experience
Each textured pad is pre-saturated with a lightweight leave-on acid solution. The skin may feel freshly cleansed and lightly tingly after application.
Care Step
Use after cleansing on dry skin and before hydrating serums and moisturizer. Do not rinse. Apply sunscreen every morning while using exfoliating acids.

Professional Recommendation
Begin slowly if you are new to acids, especially when your routine already includes retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, or another peel. Increase frequency only when the skin remains comfortable, and stop temporarily if persistent stinging, peeling, or irritation develops.
For best results, cleanse first, dry skin completely, use one pad gently, avoid eyes and lips, close the jar tightly, and wear sunscreen every morning.
