Zusammenfassung

Chemical Peels haben sich in den letzten 40 Jahren zu einer effektiven ambulanten Methode zur Hautverjüngung und zur Behandlung von Hautveränderungen mit medizinischen Indikationen etabliert. Vorübergehend wurde das Interesse an den Chemical Peels durch die Lasereuphorie verdrängt. Dennoch gelten bis heute die Phenolpeels — trotz möglicher Komplikationen von Narbenbildung und Hypopigmentierungen als der Goldstandard des „skin resurfacing“ [11] an denen sich andere ablative Methoden zu messen haben [21]. Es wird hier nicht nur eine theoretischer Übersicht bezüglich der Peels aufgezeigt, sondern es werden auch praktische Schritt-für-Schritt-Anweisungen gegeben.

Abstract

Chemical peels have become established over the past 40 years as an effective outpatient method for skin rejuvenation as well as the treatment of a variety of skin conditions. Although laser skin rejuvenation has claimed much attention in recent years, phenol peels, despite problems with scarring and hypopigmentation, remains the gold standard for skin resurfacing [11], against which other methods should be evaluated [21]. We present both a theoretical overview of chemical peels and practical step-for-step instructions.
