Chemical Peels to the Back and Extremities: Acne Scars

Acne scars and hyperpigmented scars occur commonly on the back and extremities.  The skin appendages on these areas differ from the face and thus require specific measures to avoid complications.

Secondly, it is rather difficult to pretreat these areas before a deep chemical peel.

Our office routinely performs chemical peels of various type and depth on the back and extremities. When discussing this option with your physician, make sure he or she is board certified and has experience in this specific anatomic area of peeling.
