Staged: You may want to consider alternating. I do not recommend performing simultaneously or mixing the two. You will possibly develop hypersensitive skin or excessively dry skin.

Chemical peel: Depending on the strengths, there are formulations that contain both acids along with lactic acid for exfoliation. Not knowing about about you, especially your skin, I cannot make any recommendation relevant to your specific use and refer you to your dermatologist. Do not peel active Acne eruption.
