After spending a great deal of time tan, the years of the tanning bed had taken their toll on my 48 year old face. After giving it up, I realized that I was left with wrinkle, uneven skin tone, and dark patches. I was origninaly going to go for lazer, but my doctor said the results would be much... Read more

I am going to attempt to give as much knowledge to those considering a croton oil/phenyol peel as possible. Prior to having mine, I researched all types of face enhancement procedures and became well acquainted with every procedure and product that one might choose for face enhancement. I... Read more

I am 4 weeks post peel. It was paintful for the first 11 days but with the pain medication (I took Percoset)and numbing meds (Lidocaine)I was ok. Slept pretty much the first 4-5 days. It is imperitive that you have someone with you (preferably a nurse) to administer your medications and apply... Read more

phenol87 spent $600 in United Kingdom, GB Updated 3 years ago

I had hyper pigmentation below my eyes- nothing huge but I was tired of wearing such heavy makeup to hide them. I tried a few treatments (inc. tretonin and Obaji Clear) with no real change; therefore my dermatologist recommended a phenol peel to bleach my skin lighter. The treatment itself... Read more

I had the Phenol Peel under and around the sides of my eyes as a follow up to my Bleph surgery. The procedure itself was a breeze, just a mild to moderate burning sensation thanks to the numbing creme.About an hour or so after the procedure I was in alot of pain. My whole face ached, even my...

Growing up in Arizona without spending much thought on the proper care of protecting my skin has left my skin with many fine & deep wrinkles. Add smoking and genetics & I am looking much older than my 39 years. After much deliberation, I have decided to go thru with the expensive &... Read more

"Incredible"..."You look at least 10 yrs younger!" Comments I regularly heard after I had my croton oil peel. I was inspired to get the peel after a couple people I knew had it done and had impressive results. I was given detailed information as to what to expect day by day... Read more

I had a phenol in September. It was with a board certified Plastic Surgeon and an Anesthesiologist. It was expensive. It was worth it. Before I did it I searched all the boards for information about this procedure. All I found were not of much use. Nothing really told you what will go on the... Read more

Pros are complete removal of winkles. Cons are that you do have to care for the area for a week. I did it to tighten skin under my eyes and remove wrinkles. I have had a few plastic surgery proceedures but the results from this treatment rivel any that I had with a knife! It looks... Read more

DebS58 spent $2,000 in Worcester, MA Updated 3 years ago

Three years ago I had a Croton Phenol Peel done and my surgeon was feeling generous. He not only applied the product below my eyes but quite generously for about two inches. The result is a stained red triangle beneath both eyes, high on the cheeks. I look like I've been drinking all day even... Read more

I got a deep chamical peel, a phenol peel done a few months ago. At first i was very worried about my skin changing color permanently but the doctor assured me that phenol gives great results on white women. Even if the skin does change color on a white skin, it does not show as much and so it... Read more
