As stated above. I would like to know if anyone of you could share more information about this matter, whether be it articles or doctors answers would be great.

I'm really interested to know as i've had my 3rd chemical peel (Light) done in 4 months now. So i can actually gauge if i should have longer intervals between the peels or to entirely stop them.

All comments, posted articles would be great, thanks. eusa_boohoo.gif

Well, the idea is that the skin tends to be "thick" and so the peels help shed off the extra thickness. By using the peels too much and too often, you can start to thin out I think, if that's what you're talking about. You'll probably start becoming really sensitive to use of other products and skin might look reddish-pink. That's as far as I know!

No it doesn't! It's just a myth. In fact it improves skin texture and it gives your skin a plump, dewy look.

I agree with sgoodleitz, but then chemical peels is painful and has a longer recovery time compared to .
