Deep Peeling Agents-Croton Oil, Phenol


These agents remove deep wrinkles, smooth the skin and create a more youthful look.  These agents are painful to apply and require an anesthetic.  There is a greater potential for scarring and there is always some lightening of the skin.  Certain nationalities, such as blacks, asians and latinos may not be a candidate for these peels.


What to expect after a moderate or deep peel.



Several days to two weeks of crusting and scabbing depending on the depth of the peel.


The rejuvenated skin will resemble a sunburn for weeks to months depending of the depth of the peel.


The skin will need to be protected from the sunlight for 6-9 months.

Skin peeling is an important tool in maintaining good, healthy skin and should be considered by those individuals with damaged and aged skin.
