This is a DEEP peel which uses a chemical solution to smooth the texture of your skin by removing the damaged outer layers.
This peel uses carbolic acid (phenol), which can pose a special risk for people with heart disease. It can damage heart muscle & cause the heart to beat irregularly.
Phenol can also harm the kidneys & liver.
Make sure to go to a licensed professional, theyโll carefully determine if you are a good candidate for this treatment.
Your physician will use a very strong chemical called phenol to penetrate down to the lower dermal layer of your skin. For this type of peel, you may need a local anesthetic and a sedative to manage any discomfort.
A deep chemical peel usually involves some sort of pretreatment for up to eight weeks. This will prepare your skin for the peel and speed the healing process.
