The Resurfacing Tonic

The Resurfacing Tonic

Formulated by Dr. Antony Nakhla, the Resurfacing Tonic is a high potency, powerful chemical exfoliating treatment powered by lactic and glycolic acid—which resurface the skin’s outer layer and increase skin cell turnover. Clinically-proven to improve skin texture, brighten dull skin, reduce the appearance of dark spots, minimize the look of pores, and leave skin feeling purified and more radiant.
