Glycolic acid can help remove acne scars if the concentration is high enough. However, you SHOULD NOT try to do this without the help of a Dermatologist because when the acid peels get this strong permanent scarring from them can occur if not very careful.
Per provider on site, possible side effects of glycolic acid: redness, irritation, or rash.
Usually none except for dryness and slight redness.
