Dr Mayson’s 3-Phase Anti Acne Program is not just another glycolic product— it’s a precisely designed program formulated by Dr Mayson personally over 35 years ago exclusively for his in-clinic patients seeking clearer skin.
Why Three Phases Matter
Glycolic acid can be highly effective when it is formulated correctly — but the actual form of the glycolic, its strength, its pH, and its delivery system all determine whether it's going to be effective or not.
Starting too strongly can overwhelm the skin and increase the risk of redness, dryness, or discomfort. Remaining too low in glycolic strength will produce only weak or no results.
That is why Dr Mayson’s Anti-Acne Program uses a structured 3-Phase progression system. Each phase gradually prepares the skin for the next, helping it adjust comfortably while advancing progressively to higher strengths that will produce the greatest results.
Phase 1 — Acclimatisation
The first phase introduces the skin to a low strength glycolic concentration, allowing the skin to adapt comfortably, and preparing it for the stronger phases to follow.
Phase 2 — Decongesting
The second phase increases glycolic concentration for stronger targeting of blocked pores — key factors in the formation of acne.
Phase 3 — Advanced Results
The final phase delivers the highest glycolic strength of the program to further support skin that looks increasingly clearer, smoother, more radiant, and healthier.
After completing Phase 3, we recommend ongoing use of Dr Mayson’s Maintenance Formula to both maintain and further enhance the results achieved from the 3-Phase Program.
What Makes Dr Mayson's Formulation Different?
1. Free Active Glycolic Acid
All Dr Mayson's formulas are built around the free active form of glycolic acid because only that is the form of glycolic that does the work on your skin. Not diluted. Not neutralised. Not weakened by multiple non-essential ingredients.
It's not the % on the label that's important, it's how much FREE ACTIVE glycolic is available to work on your skin.
2. The Right pH
Glycolic needs to be at the right pH to remain active. If too high, it may feel gentle, but its performance would likely be very reduced.
3. Efficient Delivery System
To work effectively, glycolic needs to penetrate the skin and reach where it needs to go. Dr Mayson's formulas are lotion-based to avoid the interference that can result from cream-based formulas.
The End Result
A structured, clinically driven approach to acne-prone skin — designed for visible results from home.
