About this procedure
The strongest procedure, the deep chemical peel or phenol peel, is designed to treat deep wrinkles from extensive sun exposure by peeling away the top layers of the skin. A deep chemical peel produces a second-degree burn on the skin. The solution is applied to the treatment area on the face or body. The solution is left on the skin then neutralized with water. The surgeon applies a layer of petroleum jelly to the face or covers the patient’s face with a mask in order for the protective crust to develop over the skin.
