A second look at chemabrasion. 1982

J J Stagnone, and G J Stagnone

Chemabrasion is reviewed as a single procedure in which a deep, full-face chemical peel is followed immediately by dermabrasion. In the past few years new information has encouraged some individualization of the chemical aspects of this procedure. A discussion of some factors to consider in selecting chemical agents and our recommendations based on over 5 years of experience are included. In addition, we present some useful refinements of the chemabrasion procedure.
