Do I qualify for a chemical peel? (Photo)

February 16, 2018
Asked By:sunshine1990 in Boston, MA

I have always had bumpy scaly skin on my chest ever since I remember. It doesn’t hurt - it’s just my skin in that one area. I have been doing research as I absolutely hate my skin there. I’m too embarrassed to wear lower cut shirts. Would chemical peel be a possible option as I know it can cure acne but I also saw it can cure “rough skin” as well. Please advise! Thank you
