I had a Phenol Peel 1 month ago. My skin is healing nicely. I am very pleased, but as the swelling has gone down I am seeing some old acne pitting re-surface. Are there additional options for remaining scarring after a phenol peel?
I have not seen significant improvement with acne scarring doing phenol peels. It is great for general wrinkles and skin tightening.
If the pitted scars are small, they can be excised and closed or undermined and a filler placed to help improve the contour.
i'm set for a phenol peel in two weeks. Will it work? just wondering if it is worth the down-time and price? the price i will be paying is 1600.
in experienced hands you should get great results. However, you should be aware that the recovery time is significant with this procedure.

I had an upper bleph and at the time of consultation the doctor said that I should have "the bottom match the top" and suggested a phenol peel but never told me it takes out the pigment and can take a year to heal! Now I have a line scar where the liquid ended under both eyes. I used locoid for a month which helped a little. What can I do to get rid of the scars? Would the fraxel help?
From your description it sounds like you have loss of pigment, not a scar. The distinction is important as the treatment is very different. I recommend you consult with an experienced facial plastic surgeon in your area.
