I had the orange peel skin texture after using certain harsh products for long periods of time...It has seemed to gone away though for the most part with a simple, non-irritating regimen. Some of my pores still look enlarged and the texture is a little messed up next to my nose but for the most part that orange peel look faded over time. I didn't do any strong chemical peels though so it may be different.
Yes, I did some at home salicylic acid peels about two years ago maybe twice or three times. Very high concentration, like 20% I think. I did it on the recommendation of someone on this forum actually, who said it was great for clearing pores and acne. I think it did create some very shallow scars, though I'm not sure. I never experienced orange peel texture though luckily.
