Abstract

Since 2000, this facility has actively been using chemical peels for cases of acne that do not respond to general treatment. Of 231 patients we treated with chemical peeling, 184 had acne, for which we used glycolic acid and salicylic acid for the peels. Treatment was continued in 165 cases, of which57 resulted in complete response, and efficacy was noted in 81 (84% efficacy rate). Adverse reactions were noted in 18 cases, including erythema and dryness, but half of those patients were able to continue treatment. In addition to amelioration of the disease, we noted the benefit of improving the texture of the patients’ skin, leading to high patient satisfaction and many wishing to continue the treatment. We will present the most impressive complete response cases, emphasizing the usefulness and safety of chemical peels based on our years of clinical experience.
