Does any body have good / bad results with endopeel injections?! Can I use them when they are not FDA approved?!

Asked By:zainab78 in New Egypt, NJ

I used the Swiss Endopeel injections (carbolic acid) a couple of years ago for medical face lifting and honestly they were the best injections I ever tried..! But I was afraid to use them again since I was concerned about the safety since I got to know that they are not FDA approved but after that I knew that even the widely used Botox is a non FDA approved injection for wrinkles but it's relatively safe.. I need to know if these endopeel injections are safe to use... Thanx in advance :)
