Answer: How can I recover from this chemical peel burn on feet and hands?
There are a few ways to go about it and it really depends on the look of your skin.You can try glycolic pads at home, nightly. As well as urea cream 40% in the morning.
Thank you for your question. Chemical peels, when performed correctly, can be a very good treatment. I would strongly advise consulting with a Board Certified Plastics Surgeons office before attempting any at home treatment.
