Chemical peels
Abstract
A chemical peel is a procedure in which a topically applied wounding agent creates smooth, rejuvenated skin by way of an organized repair process. This article describes the indications, classifications, operative procedure, and complications of chemical resurfacing. In addition, alternatives to chemoexfoliation are discussed.
