title: Advances in deep chemical peels.
abstract: Deep chemical peels have been used in dermatology for more than a century and their popularity increased dramatically during the past decade. The main indications for this procedure include photoaging, perioral wrinkling, acne scars, and precancerous skin lesions. Deep chemical peel is a nonsurgical procedure that compares favorably with other surgical and nonsurgical procedures for skin rejuvenation, such as surgical face-lifting, dermabrasion, and laser resurfacing. It is a safe and cost-effective method that provides significant results and a high degree of patient satisfaction.
