Chemical peels can be used on backs and buttocks for scaring. Some considerations when performing peels there would be the thickness of the skin and the need for multiple peels to see the desired results. Post peel care is also a consideration as the skin will slough and the area where the peel is applied must be kept clean and moist. Other treatments for this area include topical agents used over a long period of time and laser treatment.
