Croton oil peels

This author discusses the utility and versatility of the modern croton oil peel, which, unlike older formulations, may be used for all ages and skin types for effective and long-lasting skin resurfacing. He provides the rationale for various croton oil concentrations, focusing on avoiding complications while achieving a desirable clinical result and includes a comprehensive guide to application, appropriate formulas, and the perioperative process. Of significance is that this is a procedure with a distinct learning curve; the goal for the experienced practitioner is to control the application process, proceeding slowly enough to be able to stop at the appropriate depth.
