Croton oil phenol peel, also known as the Croton oil peel or the Phenol-Croton oil peel, is a type of chemical peel used to treat skin conditions such as acne scars, wrinkles, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation.
Croton oil phenol peel, also known as the Croton oil peel or the Phenol-Croton oil peel, is a type of chemical peel used to treat skin conditions such as acne scars, wrinkles, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation. It is a deep peeling treatment that involves the application of a solution containing phenol and croton oil onto the skin. The solution penetrates deep into the skin layers, causing the top layers of the skin to peel off.
This type of peel is considered to be one of the strongest peels available and is usually performed by a dermatologist or plastic surgeon. It requires a longer recovery time than other types of peels, as the skin needs time to heal and regenerate after the procedure. The results of a Croton oil phenol peel can be quite dramatic, with significant improvement in the appearance of the skin, but it also carries a higher risk of complications, including scarring, hyperpigmentation, and infection.
