It’s not worth the risk. My mum had it done, her face swelled up like a balloon, it was hideous. She got infected too. She has severe pain in her face ever since due to facial nerve damage caused by the treatment. When we called the dr who performed it, & went back to see him, the receptionist met mum outside & had her hold a towel over her head & rushed her in to a seperate room away from everyone in the waiting area. He didn’t want anyone to see how hideous mum was, otherwise he may have lost some business that day. Mum regretted doing it everyday since.
Of course a procedure such as this can and does have complications, shame to hear your mom got an infection, that sounds so scary. Esp in a country without universal health care
My father was one of the first patients in the UK to have extreme dermabrasion in the late 1950's for cystic acne. The skin was completely scrubbed off using a 'power tool' wire brush instrument. He was then housed in an oxygen tent in isolation and fed through a straw whilst his face skin grew back. My grandmother vomited then passed out when she saw him. He was 14.
My father was 1 of the patients to have “UV treatment” for cystic acne. As you can imagine.. this caused malignant melanoma in later life. Nodular cystic acne is a heredity condition within the skin. Accutane is the only treatment. Thank God for my cousins & I we had Accutane & don’t have scars like prior generations

This is an absolute last resort and even then it's not advisable... It shouldn't really be considered as a general option, it's extremely dangerous and should not be viewed lightly.

Phenol peel's are an extreme measure to take, i will agree but the results in the end can not be denied. I was always so obsessed with my skin since youth. As I got older, I have tried almost everything to look younger + delay aging but as much as possible (Never tried filles or Botox though), anything from face exercises, vitamin C serum, Fraxel, collagen supplements and of course Retin A (7 years straight), home devices and what not. However, nothing made any real difference compared to the high-quality derma pen I purchased for under 100 bucks. Within 3 months of use, my skin has improved DRAMATICALLY. I don't look like I'm 18 again, but definitely not 42 either. My fine lines have disappeared completely, and my nasolabial folds are way less are nonexist and the best thing out of it, I had acne scars from many years ago, which have completely gone, and it wasn't even my intention or reason for me to start microneedling. People often underestimate the power of wounding and the revolutionary effects it can have on the skin.
Shhhh...don't tell everyone! (Joking) Ive started doing this for almost 10 years - most guess I'm @ 15 YEARS younger than my birth certificate says. I DO it myself at home, quote aggressively in places, and lightly in others,,maybe 1x month. I am 63, never had an acne scars though, just used it for anti aging

I honestly think my life would be different if I wasn't so insecure of my face at that age. I'm so glad to see this work for him.
I can relate. I had very severe acne with some cystic acne. I was totally self conscious of my skin. The treatments at the time only helped minimally. I had dermabrasion when I was 26 by a plastic surgeon and it helped with the scarring just a little. As I’ve aged, I contend with remaining scarring, but now wrinkles. Double whammy! But the good thing is that as you age, you have an underlying confidence emerge and an attitude of not caring about what other people think of you. I only wish I felt like that as an adolescent, but that’s the way most people develop.
I started doing at home TCA peels. You can get it online. I do them very lightly so I don’t have any real down time and my skin has never looked better. $45 bottle I got online. I apply it with a cotton round and I’ve done 3 this last year and my skin is better then ever, acne scars almost gone that I had for years! Calamine lotion after helps. I use calamine lotion under my make up also!
There is for example another treatment called "Microdermabrasion" which is less extreme but for that needs multiple sessions usually done within one month intervals.
@@ganjanaweeda are you maybe thinking of microneedling? microdermabrasion is a physical exfoliator that wont really do anything for severe conditions like acne scars
A phenol peel can only be done by a medical doctor and requires anesthesia, antibiotics, serious pain medications and medical monitoring. Healing time is 1-2 months, your skin color will never match your body again. You’ll never be able to be exposed to direct sunlight. But, your skin will be flawless and smooth for the rest of your life, as long as you take care of it 😊
I'm shocked that no one realizes how dangerous this procedure and other cosmetic procedures are. We lost Joan Rivers during plastic surgery ffs. RIP to that queen.
Yikes. I'd rather have my scars. No way i can shield my face from the sun forever. Mutton's tallow is working well on my scars. It's safe and gentle to my skin.
@@TheNinjaNikythere’s still many chemical peels and microdermabrasion out there for us girlies with the scarring. Also you could self tan. that helps too
@medina4926 unfortunately I'm just a pale person by nature😂 don't think I'd look good tan. I currently just do light peels and skin care but I think I'm gonna have to upgrade it
@@medina4926Your comments just reminded of a visit I had from a scar specialist post-operation, and how she said exactly what you said! And how the darker the skin, is the more melenated(?) the scar tissues becomes, so scarring can be covered in those cased with those micro tears and tan, but for me with the opposite I was recommended to have no sun exposure and to not tan, and how id go from violet to white in it. Scaring is genuinely so fascinating how it works in regards to age, sex, race etc.
Yeah… haven’t seen this on darker skin yet. A shame that certain treatments won’t provide much help (but instead be worse) to people of all shades who might need it
@@natashka1982Such an unintelligent coinage. I am black, by the way. None of my black friends use that stupid anti-word. Looking forward to the reemergence of intelligent speech and writing.
There was a guy in high school who had a very large acne cyst on his cheek that got worse each year, and he had extreme acne scarring. Kids were so, so cruel to him. Treated him like he wasn't even human, beyond zero compassion. I tried a few times to get to know him, but he was so skeptical of anyone's motives, and guarded, that all I could ever get were superficial, short interactions in between class periods. I could never figure out where he spent lunch. I think I wanted to show him a little compassion because the way he was treated would remind me of the abuse I went through as a little kid. I wonder what that guy is up to these days. I hope he found a good dermatologist, and figured out what was making his acne so severe. I don't know anything about acne, when I was a teenager it was thought that diet, and hormones, we're the biggest culprits. Diet makes sense to me, being allergic to what you eat regularly can cause all sorts of problems.
Sometimes, it doesn't matter. For some people, there's no cure. Only synthetic drugs like accutane products. But then that doesn't always work, either. Some people are just cursed with it.
I have done medium peels and they are the bomb. Def not this serious but if I had scars as he I would do the intense route too. Your face is what you present to the world. And having had acne as a teen and scars the majority of my life, I understand the toll it takes on a persons self esteem, esp if they’ve been bullied during their adolescence. This may seem extreme but the benefit far out weighs the pain and intensity of the treatment
in your opinion, what is the best peel or treatment to get rid of acne dark spots / hyperpigmentation? one that you can see results after preferably one use? my sister did micro needling and spent over 1,000 over multiple sessions and it honestly didn't do much at all :/
Yes, i saw another commenter say that he had a friend that unalived himself because of how his scars affected him, or should I say, how the scars affected other people and in turn, treated him badly and he couldnt take it anymore. Im glad that bullying is becoming an important conversation. I can't stand seeing older movies where it was normal to show people bullying others that were different, too dark, too light, too big, too small, too smart, or creative. Such a shame. So many jokes(many racial) that were ok just 10-25 years ago didn't age well and are just in bad taste.
@@DB-xo6xhEh i find it hard to believe he was being bullied as an adult about his scars, it was more than likely a self esteem issue that followed him into adulthoood
@@Shrimp_Insurance you think adults can’t go through bullying too? Are you grown or living under a rock because it can and does happen. Bullies tend to carry the trait into adult hood and actually some that were bullied become the bully
For extreme cases I can understand people really wanting something that works , but I would love to see someone similar to his condition with fraction lasers in multiple treatments to see how they compare !
Phenol is a VERY dangerous chemical if not used properly. I’m sure it burned like hell. I can’t imagine having that anywhere near my nose or eyes, though I’m not sure what concentration they use for this treatment, or if there was anything added to “mellow it out” so to speak. But mishandling it can result in some pretty awful chemical burns
I know this guy must be thrilled. Sometimes certain things about our skin drive us crazy. I would never judge anyone. I’m so glad his results are good. ❤
We only see these peels immediately after the ‘crust’ comes off. Does it still look good after a few months or are some of the improvements temporary inflammation?
They looks so amazing after!! Like baby skin I follow a couple a dermatologist who did this in insta . Works amazing on very aged women too . Takes the wrinkles out
I have very ugly terrible stretch marks from pregnancies and gaining wait. That I would be really happy to get rid of them. Who’s the dr who performed your procedure? Thank you so much for sharing this, because I didn’t even know you can do this on the stretch marks.
@@giraubumuntu1706 If it were me, I would try several sessions of microneedling before I went to this extreme! I've heard very good things about doing this after a year or less and you can DIY at home for a couple hundred $ or less.
@@giraubumuntu1706 this specific procedure is pretty risky, even when it goes well. I wouldn't suggest getting it if there were other options, especially for something as hidable as most stretch marks. read up on it before going further, and see what other options are available.
Anyone who is interested in this, it's definitely an option that can work, but this does come with a risk. This procedure can sometimes leave people with an arrhythmia (irregular heart beat.) I wouldn't do it personally, but it's definitely an option if you're willing to take the risk.
I was lucky not to have had acne- no scarring. This man's face was an extreme example of scarring & pitting. I do not know how I'd feel or what I would do ....this man's face/ skin results after tx is phenomenal.
Aqui no Brasil morreu um rapaz devido a esse fenol. Teve um ataque cardíaco. Nao sabia que o fenol fosse contra indicado para oessoas com problemas cardíacos. Ele sentiu muita dor e logo foi levado para um hospital, mas não resistiu. Vale ressaltar qye quem aplicou, não estaca abilitado para tal função. Foi uma digital influence que fez curso online.
Holy jeez. I had by far the worst acne in middle school, both with cystic and surface acne, so painful for 3-4 years. I have no idea how I didn’t scar! I got so lucky with that.
@@velily1 well your entire face falls off and is now exposed, makes sense it will need a lot of ime to recover, it's a huge wound! Also not sure if you can get any sun exposure for a while. (some comments say never!) And it the risks involve cardiactoxicity! that's a huge bet to take imo
A friend of mine had this done , he was handsome but he had severe acne scars , but years of bullying affected him deeper in his soul and he killed himself years after even if he was absolutely handsome . Bullying for a medical problem that you don’t really have control over affects people . Educate your kids not to be a bully .
Love yourselves don't waste money and time fixing something superficial. I've got a big scar on my face. Wouldn't ever dream of having it removed I kinda like it.
Oh my gosh. That seems painful but he looks fantastic! I wonder how long recovery time is. You can’t go to work like that so you’d have to take time off or work from home. I have rolling scars and box scars (I think anyway) that are from acne and the subsequent picking behavior during a former opiate addiction in the late 90s. I definitely have more of the loss/indentations of collagen/tissue (? maybe) rather than damage to the actual skin. I have thought about getting some sort of treatment to smooth the appearance but I don’t know if I could handle what this man went through. He does look great though and I’m sure his self confidence is through the roof. That’s what I struggle with as a result even though I notice it more than others do.
He’s beautiful ❤ I’m almost 70 and think I’ve watched such serious damage done to young peoples lives over severe acne when I see an older person still with scars and pits my ❤️ breaks because there life was certainly was not easy and when I learned it’s parasites it made me so sad in fact beyond sad that this was held back and the treatment is simple and cheap 😇🙏
I had severe pitted acne scars, and i thought they would never go away and i would have to do some cosmetic procedure. However, i started taking collagen for my hair and nails, and lo and behold, the collagen actually worked more on my skin and made all my scars go away within 6 months.
A guy that had fenol peeling recently died in Brazil. The person who performed it didn't have any qualifications, but was a very famous beauty influencer. Please make sure that you're doing it with a certified dermatologist.
I had a very light chemical peel and it was uncomfortable! I could only imagine the pain that he experienced going through the healing process with tgis treatment. 😢
Good for him! I’m so happy for him actually! I’m terrified of those peels but I feel Immense for sadness for anything anyone can’t truly control and than at the end it ruins and permanently disfigures you so I’m happy ppl get their happy ending because everyone deserves to feel like their best self.
I had this done when I was 18, and it worked really well for me. If you have it done, it is very important that you do not start peeling your face prematurely. Your face will turn black as the chemically burned skin starts to dry off. The skin will slowly fall of little by little. Do not be tempted to start peeling your own skin. It has to fall of on its own as it dries or else you will run the risk of creating new scars. The procedure is painful, but not unbearable.
I was one of the fortunate ones that rarely got acne as a youth. My children’s father has mild acne scars & both of my children inherited his skin condition, sadly. However, luckily, neither child has scarring 😊🙏
He looks gorgeous 😍 I wanna do that my skin doesn't have any acne marks but the reason I wanna do this is because I'm 31 now and I see that I am starting to look older
If it wasn’t for you, I would’ve went into this treatment unknowing with heart problems. I am now content with how I look. Thank you for your safety precautions.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
As awful as the recovery time and just sheer pain they had to endure you honestly cannot argue with the results. I'm typically 100% against things such as this but honestly this was amazing. You could not have gotten a better result, I'm happy for him.
This channel keeps coming up and the doctor is so cool. That I just nod and agree. And keep swiping. Just wanted to say this time good content. Good stuff.
I took chemical peel for scarring and damn the healing process is painful! You want to scratch your face night and day, the itching is crazy too. I can only imagine what that guy went through 😮
Will you explain what the recovery is like? I've seen a couple of your shorts about these peels, and now I'm very curious to learn more (not to get one, just very interested in learning more and I like the way you explain things!)
I really looked at the thumbnail and thought this was Tommy from Power. I had a friend get the CO² lazer treatment. It did good but nothing like this peel did for this guy. Thats amazing! He definitely went to the club after this. 😁
A local guy that had this done, and he was so pleased with the results. Super pleased. I don’t think he realized he always looked like he just never stopped looking like he was walking around with a terrible raw sunburn. Even in the mind of local redheads.( not so many people know more about getting a burnt look and redheads.) he thought he was very handsome, and we all did our best to pretend he looks normal. it’s hard to imagine a level of scarring that would not have looked better though; even years later, he looked like his flesh was raw.
As a redhead, I can say, yes we know sunburns very well. It's why I have to protect myself very well whenever I go in the sun, no matter the season or even if there are clouds . I will also get freckles every summer, even with the protective measures I take to avoid burns.

Healing time is 1-2 months, your skin color will never match your body again. You’ll never be able to be exposed to direct sunlight. But, your skin will be flawless and smooth for the rest of your life, as long as you take care of it 😊
You can match the skin colour with your body again just do a fullbody peel.😂
THIS! why they don't talk about this. this is a horrible procedure, and also extremely painful
I'm shocked that no one realizes how dangerous this procedure and other cosmetic procedures are.
We lost Joan Rivers during plastic surgery ffs. RIP to that queen.
Yikes. I'd rather have my scars. No way i can shield my face from the sun forever. Mutton's tallow is working well on my scars. It's safe and gentle to my skin.

so thankful i didnt get acne scars that go deep into the skin they just faded away on its own
I don't really have any pits either. But my dark spots decided to never go away no matter what I do. So be careful😂
@@TheNinjaNikythere’s still many chemical peels and microdermabrasion out there for us girlies with the scarring. Also you could self tan. that helps too
@medina4926 unfortunately I'm just a pale person by nature😂 don't think I'd look good tan. I currently just do light peels and skin care but I think I'm gonna have to upgrade it
@@TheNinjaNiky i understand 😂 I’m actually black but self tanning somehow works, microdermabrasion and also laser works
@@medina4926Your comments just reminded of a visit I had from a scar specialist post-operation, and how she said exactly what you said! And how the darker the skin, is the more melenated(?) the scar tissues becomes, so scarring can be covered in those cased with those micro tears and tan, but for me with the opposite I was recommended to have no sun exposure and to not tan, and how id go from violet to white in it.
Scaring is genuinely so fascinating how it works in regards to age, sex, race etc.
FYI, Malenated skin may have different results.
Yeah… haven’t seen this on darker skin yet. A shame that certain treatments won’t provide much help (but instead be worse) to people of all shades who might need it

He was COMMITTED. Good for him, man. Solid. 💪
There was a guy in high school who had a very large acne cyst on his cheek that got worse each year, and he had extreme acne scarring. Kids were so, so cruel to him. Treated him like he wasn't even human, beyond zero compassion. I tried a few times to get to know him, but he was so skeptical of anyone's motives, and guarded, that all I could ever get were superficial, short interactions in between class periods. I could never figure out where he spent lunch. I think I wanted to show him a little compassion because the way he was treated would remind me of the abuse I went through as a little kid. I wonder what that guy is up to these days. I hope he found a good dermatologist, and figured out what was making his acne so severe. I don't know anything about acne, when I was a teenager it was thought that diet, and hormones, we're the biggest culprits. Diet makes sense to me, being allergic to what you eat regularly can cause all sorts of problems.
Sometimes, it doesn't matter. For some people, there's no cure. Only synthetic drugs like accutane products. But then that doesn't always work, either. Some people are just cursed with it.
Its genetic. Usually when its that severe its genes and extreme hormone imbalance usually androgens causing it
Diet doesn’t cause acne
@chronic_payne5669 I breakout after eating certain foods tho
Diet don't help when it's in your genes
I have done medium peels and they are the bomb. Def not this serious but if I had scars as he I would do the intense route too. Your face is what you present to the world. And having had acne as a teen and scars the majority of my life, I understand the toll it takes on a persons self esteem, esp if they’ve been bullied during their adolescence. This may seem extreme but the benefit far out weighs the pain and intensity of the treatment
in your opinion, what is the best peel or treatment to get rid of acne dark spots / hyperpigmentation? one that you can see results after preferably one use? my sister did micro needling and spent over 1,000 over multiple sessions and it honestly didn't do much at all :/
I agree
Yes, i saw another commenter say that he had a friend that unalived himself because of how his scars affected him, or should I say, how the scars affected other people and in turn, treated him badly and he couldnt take it anymore. Im glad that bullying is becoming an important conversation. I can't stand seeing older movies where it was normal to show people bullying others that were different, too dark, too light, too big, too small, too smart, or creative. Such a shame. So many jokes(many racial) that were ok just 10-25 years ago didn't age well and are just in bad taste.
@@DB-xo6xhEh i find it hard to believe he was being bullied as an adult about his scars, it was more than likely a self esteem issue that followed him into adulthoood
@@Shrimp_Insurance you think adults can’t go through bullying too? Are you grown or living under a rock because it can and does happen. Bullies tend to carry the trait into adult hood and actually some that were bullied become the bully
For extreme cases I can understand people really wanting something that works , but I would love to see someone similar to his condition with fraction lasers in multiple treatments to see how they compare !
I agree ..
Yay! You know that he suffered for years with that cystic acne…. Poor guy. I'm happy he got a new face! He's one handsome gentleman 🎩! ♥️
That looks so painful. I'm happy it worked for him
Phenol is a VERY dangerous chemical if not used properly. I’m sure it burned like hell. I can’t imagine having that anywhere near my nose or eyes, though I’m not sure what concentration they use for this treatment, or if there was anything added to “mellow it out” so to speak. But mishandling it can result in some pretty awful chemical burns
He’s not a big fan bc it can also definitely backfire and make bigger pitting. Thank goodness this guy had success.
@@bravobby8773 body's response to phenol can even cause death 😮
@@bravobby8773that’s why this kind of peeling should be made by a Dr.
I wish this could be done with some people’s PERSONALITIES! What a WONDERFUL
world this could be!
Love the way you think ... 🎉
You can with Jesus help ❤
You could literally die from this. I don’t think it’s worth it guys ❤ you’re so beautiful the way you are. Be gentle with your skin
Yeah, there are slower and safer methods.
@@ScarletBrimstoneslower, safer, and less effective - with larger profit margins for someone like the doctor in this video. Lasers are a scam.
I have two younger sisters. If I die I die. At least I have a chance of finding a wife with such a treatment and not dying alone and forgotten
what if I told you, you can still find love having a scarred face
@@darthvader0219damnnnnnn I have same problem but less courage
I know this guy must be thrilled. Sometimes certain things about our skin drive us crazy. I would never judge anyone. I’m so glad his results are good. ❤
We only see these peels immediately after the ‘crust’ comes off. Does it still look good after a few months or are some of the improvements temporary inflammation?
They looks so amazing after!! Like baby skin I follow a couple a dermatologist who did this in insta . Works amazing on very aged women too . Takes the wrinkles out
Wish this worked on stretch marks as well 🥹

Had this done on my stretch marks postpartum. Amazing 🤩
I have very ugly terrible stretch marks from pregnancies and gaining wait. That I would be really happy to get rid of them. Who’s the dr who performed your procedure? Thank you so much for sharing this, because I didn’t even know you can do this on the stretch marks.
😮 wow.. That's so cool. I'm jelly😂
@@giraubumuntu1706 If it were me, I would try several sessions of microneedling before I went to this extreme! I've heard very good things about doing this after a year or less and you can DIY at home for a couple hundred $ or less.
@@giraubumuntu1706 this specific procedure is pretty risky, even when it goes well. I wouldn't suggest getting it if there were other options, especially for something as hidable as most stretch marks. read up on it before going further, and see what other options are available.
Glad it worked out for him and he got positive results, it looked like a really painful treatment
Anyone who is interested in this, it's definitely an option that can work, but this does come with a risk. This procedure can sometimes leave people with an arrhythmia (irregular heart beat.) I wouldn't do it personally, but it's definitely an option if you're willing to take the risk.
I don't like my acne scars.......but I like being alive.
I was lucky not to have had acne- no scarring.
This man's face was an extreme example of scarring & pitting.
I do not know how I'd feel or what I would do ....this man's face/ skin results after tx is phenomenal.
I’m happy it worked out for him. It really looked like a painful process though
Aqui no Brasil morreu um rapaz devido a esse fenol. Teve um ataque cardíaco. Nao sabia que o fenol fosse contra indicado para oessoas com problemas cardíacos. Ele sentiu muita dor e logo foi levado para um hospital, mas não resistiu. Vale ressaltar qye quem aplicou, não estaca abilitado para tal função. Foi uma digital influence que fez curso online.
That was a Cinderella moment for SURE! He truly understand what beauty is pain means now!
Wow good for him that it worked so well. It must have felt like a rebirth.
I've been doing microneedling for my chicken pox scars on my forehead and slowly but surely they're going away and there's no downtime. Much safer!
Holy jeez. I had by far the worst acne in middle school, both with cystic and surface acne, so painful for 3-4 years. I have no idea how I didn’t scar! I got so lucky with that.
I'm so happy for him. Acne scars are painful.❤️💔❤️❤️
I want this but I am afraid of the pain and going out to work I can't take 3 months of vacation 😢 but still so awesome they can use this treatment
it takes 3 months to recover?!!
@@velily14-6 weeks according to Google and results can last up to 10 years 🤔🤔
@@velily1 well your entire face falls off and is now exposed, makes sense it will need a lot of ime to recover, it's a huge wound!
Also not sure if you can get any sun exposure for a while. (some comments say never!)
And it the risks involve cardiactoxicity! that's a huge bet to take imo
Congratulations! You look great!
A friend of mine had this done , he was handsome but he had severe acne scars , but years of bullying affected him deeper in his soul and he killed himself years after even if he was absolutely handsome . Bullying for a medical problem that you don’t really have control over affects people . Educate your kids not to be a bully .
Can't imagine the pain! I have acne scars, and I have don't several peelings but I would never do a peeling that severe
Love yourselves don't waste money and time fixing something superficial. I've got a big scar on my face. Wouldn't ever dream of having it removed I kinda like it.
Sorry bubs some of us don’t
@@muffinconsumer4431 Sorry, some of us don't care.
@@xXLunatikxXlul it easy to say
@@muffinconsumer4431Exactly!
Oh my gosh. That seems painful but he looks fantastic! I wonder how long recovery time is. You can’t go to work like that so you’d have to take time off or work from home. I have rolling scars and box scars (I think anyway) that are from acne and the subsequent picking behavior during a former opiate addiction in the late 90s. I definitely have more of the loss/indentations of collagen/tissue (? maybe) rather than damage to the actual skin. I have thought about getting some sort of treatment to smooth the appearance but I don’t know if I could handle what this man went through. He does look great though and I’m sure his self confidence is through the roof. That’s what I struggle with as a result even though I notice it more than others do.
Takes about 2-3 weeks to heal I think
Do it's worth it I did it and my whole life changed instantly in 2 weeks.
He looks amazing afterwards. Huge improvement!
Currently going through lasers. It has permanently made my skin sensitive to light and heat
If you’re still going through it, then it’ll still be sensitive. Once all treatments are done, you won’t have the same sensitivities
How do you know those effects are permanent? 🤔
@@jfm14 because I'm on retinae
He was a champ through that. I’m sure that was weeks of recovery!
I am so sorry for you have to endure this horrific thing.If i were you,i would have lived with my scars
He’s beautiful ❤ I’m almost 70 and think I’ve watched such serious damage done to young peoples lives over severe acne when I see an older person still with scars and pits my ❤️ breaks because there life was certainly was not easy and when I learned it’s parasites it made me so sad in fact beyond sad that this was held back and the treatment is simple and cheap 😇🙏
Honestly i'd love this done. Its like literally starting all over again, but the possible side affects are just not worth the risk. That glow
I had severe pitted acne scars, and i thought they would never go away and i would have to do some cosmetic procedure. However, i started taking collagen for my hair and nails, and lo and behold, the collagen actually worked more on my skin and made all my scars go away within 6 months.
I also have pretty bad pitted scars. Is there like collagen brands that you can recommend? I never heard of that.
@@mariamt02good question
As long as the patient is healthy and well-aware of the risks, I can’t criticize them of their doctor. These results are astonishing! Congrats!
A guy that had fenol peeling recently died in Brazil. The person who performed it didn't have any qualifications, but was a very famous beauty influencer. Please make sure that you're doing it with a certified dermatologist.
His results are magnificent ❤
You definitely need to be very committed to see it through. So painful looking but his skin at the end is soo smooth. Good for him 😊
I'd be terrified it would eat through to the bone 😦😲 he looks great but you would need to make sure you are in the best hands.
Wow, I am so glad there are ways to help people like this. Perfect skin after the treatment 😍
Bro really woke up and choose to change a face 😂
I had a very light chemical peel and it was uncomfortable! I could only imagine the pain that he experienced going through the healing process with tgis treatment. 😢
they are using mild sedation to tolerate the pain
Good for him! I’m so happy for him actually! I’m terrified of those peels but I feel
Immense for sadness for anything anyone can’t truly control and than at the end it ruins and permanently disfigures you so I’m happy ppl get their happy ending because everyone deserves to feel like their best self.
I had this done when I was 18, and it worked really well for me. If you have it done, it is very important that you do not start peeling your face prematurely. Your face will turn black as the chemically burned skin starts to dry off. The skin will slowly fall of little by little. Do not be tempted to start peeling your own skin. It has to fall of on its own as it dries or else you will run the risk of creating new scars. The procedure is painful, but not unbearable.
I was one of the fortunate ones that rarely got acne as a youth. My children’s father has mild acne scars & both of my children inherited his skin condition, sadly. However, luckily, neither child has scarring 😊🙏
Wow!!! I am sure it was very painful, but the outcome was worth it!
He looks gorgeous 😍 I wanna do that my skin doesn't have any acne marks but the reason I wanna do this is because I'm 31 now and I see that I am starting to look older
How amazing that we can fix skin so well
He definitely unpeeled and revealed his CUTE🥰😂👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎯💯Worth the pain
If it wasn’t for you, I would’ve went into this treatment unknowing with heart problems. I am now content with how I look. Thank you for your safety precautions.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
What about if you have back skin?
As awful as the recovery time and just sheer pain they had to endure you honestly cannot argue with the results. I'm typically 100% against things such as this but honestly this was amazing. You could not have gotten a better result, I'm happy for him.
Recovery looks magnificent 😭skin is flawless
I once had a combination of ipl and levulon to treat both rosacea and sun damage. One treatment and done. Highly recommend
He’s so damn strong! Beauty really is pain 💔
He looks SO PLEASED!!! 😄
This channel keeps coming up and the doctor is so cool. That I just nod and agree. And keep swiping. Just wanted to say this time good content. Good stuff.
Holy shit that’s hard to look at, but glad it gets good results for those who need it
He deserved his new skin. It’s not take best option but he’s beautiful!
Geez!!! I KNOW that had to be painful as everything! Yet, his results are amazing. I am happy for him. 🎉💯❤
I took chemical peel for scarring and damn the healing process is painful! You want to scratch your face night and day, the itching is crazy too. I can only imagine what that guy went through 😮
Will you explain what the recovery is like? I've seen a couple of your shorts about these peels, and now I'm very curious to learn more (not to get one, just very interested in learning more and I like the way you explain things!)
I really looked at the thumbnail and thought this was Tommy from Power.
I had a friend get the CO² lazer treatment. It did good but nothing like this peel did for this guy. Thats amazing! He definitely went to the club after this. 😁
Hard to believe it's the same person. It's truly amazing what a new skin can do for some people and how much difference it makes.
There's also microneedling treatments you can get for acne that are definitely cheaper than phenol perls
This peel is amazing
A local guy that had this done, and he was so pleased with the results. Super pleased.
I don’t think he realized he always looked like he just never stopped looking like he was walking around with a terrible raw sunburn. Even in the mind of local redheads.( not so many people know more about getting a burnt look and redheads.)
he thought he was very handsome, and we all did our best to pretend he looks normal. it’s hard to imagine a level of scarring that would not have looked better though; even years later, he looked like his flesh was raw.
Ooof.
As a redhead, I can say, yes we know sunburns very well. It's why I have to protect myself very well whenever I go in the sun, no matter the season or even if there are clouds . I will also get freckles every summer, even with the protective measures I take to avoid burns.
That is crazy. I know the down time is intense but the end result is incredible! Bless his heart.
He looks beautiful! Well done ❤
Looks great ❤
Sensitive for the rest of his life....
Yes
"The recovery is very intense." I'd definitely say that's an understatement.
Peeling is so good. In 1998 I had it done.my face was very beautiful.
Wow the after pic is amazingly smooth and beautiful 😻
Wow, that looks brutal 😳 I think I’d just live with the scars
His skin is amazing. No pain, no gain. ❤❤
Oh wow.. he looks so incredibly happy now:) You can see it in the way he smiles❤
