Dr Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Ultra Gentle Daily Peel — 5 Treatments for Sensitive Dehydrated Skin, Hydrating Exfoliant

Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Ultra Gentle Daily Peel is a two-step, fast-acting daily peel designed to gently exfoliate and hydrate dehydrated or sensitive skin for smoother texture and more even tone.

This dermatologist-developed two-step formula uses a calibrated blend of three acids (AHA/BHAs) plus antioxidants and vitamins to lift away dead skin while the second step soothes, neutralizes, and restores moisture. Each kit contains five paired treatments, each completed in about two minutes, to help reveal fresher, more comfortable-looking skin without harsh abrasion or intense irritation. It’s formulated specifically for fragile, dry, or first-time peel users who want clinical benefits at home with a softer touch.

How quickly will I see smoother skin after using this peel?

Most users notice immediate surface softening and brightness after a single two-minute treatment, with cumulative improvements in texture and tone after regular use. The gentle acids loosen dead cells while the neutralizing second step calms and hydrates, making results visible without flaking or excessive sensitivity.

• Two-minute application per treatment.
• Immediate surface radiance and softer texture.
• Visible improvement in pores and fine lines with continued use.

Is this suitable for sensitive, dry, or reactive skin?

This Ultra Gentle formula was created for dehydrated and sensitive skin types or those new to chemical peels. It contains a precisely balanced, lower-concentration trio of AHAs/BHAs combined with antioxidants and vitamins to reduce the risk of irritation while delivering exfoliation and hydration.

• Lower-acid strength tailored for fragile skin.
• Step 2 neutralizes and soothes with hydrating actives.
• Daily-calibrated dosing supports gentle, consistent results.

What’s in each of the two steps and how do they work together?

Step 1 applies the active exfoliating solution that loosens dead skin and refines texture; Step 2 is a neutralizer that hydrates, calms, and delivers anti-aging actives so skin is balanced and comfortable. Together they create clinical-style results at home without aggressive resurfacing.

• Step 1: precise blend of three AHA/BHAs plus antioxidants to lift impurities.
• Step 2: calming, hydrating formula that neutralizes and replenishes skin.
• Combined effect: improved product absorption and smoother makeup application.

How should I fit these peels into my skincare routine?

Use one paired treatment daily as directed, typically on clean, dry skin. Follow Step 2 with your usual hydrating serum or moisturizer; sunscreen is recommended during daytime use to protect newly revealed skin.

• Apply on clean skin, two minutes total, then follow with moisturizer.
• Use daily for progressive, non-abrasive results.
• Always follow with SPF the next morning when used daytime.

Who is this for: This product is ideal for people with dry, dehydrated, or sensitive skin, those new to chemical peels, or anyone seeking a gentler at-home treatment to improve uneven tone, texture, fine lines, and enlarged pores. If you prefer controlled, dermatologist-developed formulas with cruelty-free, paraben-free, sulfate-free, and vegan claims and want brighter, smoother skin without strong irritation, the Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Ultra Gentle Daily Peel offers a reliable, daily-friendly option.
