  • Title: Chemical peel.
    Author: Mosienko P, Baker TJ.
    Journal: Clin Plast Surg; 1978 Jan; 5(1):79-96. PubMed ID: 639446.
    Abstract:
    Chemical face peeling as described in this article produces gross and microscopic changes in the skin which are permanent. The most important aspect in assuring the success of this procedure is the proper selection of patients. The primary use of this procedure is for the purpose of eliminating wrinkles, whether as the primary or ancillary procedure, such as regional peeling. Chemical peeling of the face is a valuable adjunct in the treatment of the aging face and can produce some rather dramatic results with the careful selection of patients and meticulous attention to detail in carrying out the peel, as well as the exact adherence to the post peel instructions by the patient.
