Chemical face peeling without taping

Chemical face peeling is a simple surgical procedure which usually provides dramatic results. The potential for serious complications does exist and cautious assessment and management is essential. Aesthetically pleasing long-term results can be obtained by using chemexfoliation without taping, when employed with a "moist dressing" technique. This technique eliminates the need for repeated anesthetics and postoperative visits in order to remove facial taping, and provides an atmosphere for accelerated wound healing.
