They were giving away chemical peels by Alpha Beta peeling quotidien formula intense. It's Alpha Beta Extra Strength daily peel. By Dr Dennis gross. The expiration date is April 2022. Should I even bother trying to use them now or should I just throw them in the trash? They've never been opened.

Love how you present the facts and give detailed explanations! I love lactic acid as my aha and use along with a 2 % bha. I only exfoliate 1x a week… using retinol 5 days and one day of recovery.

Yes glad I watched this bc I just bought the glycolic ordinary but another dermatologist said that brand wasn’t good for POC.

I use Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting Peel and I love it!

You are killing the game, Dr. S! Eternally grateful for your videos and wisdom. May you share the Bakuchiol you are using in the morn? Thank you!

I'm so glad that you mentioned using a separate and stronger exfoliate on your body. I've recently bought the L'Oréal 10% pure glycolic acid and the Amlactin 15% lactic acid lotion. I have KP on my legs (mostly) and my arms. Right now I just alternate days. But I also would like to get a retinoid to use as well. And was thinking of using a stronger retinoid for the skin on my legs. Actually I'd like to have an in office chemical peel but on my face, arms and legs. I haven't heard of full body chemical peels that much but I'm sure they are being done. Btw, your videos are always very informative.

Thank you for this video, Doctor! 🙏🏽💗 Can you do a video specifically about how to restore skin after 25 years of severe chronic eczema from head-to-toe? That's my situation. I am Canadian and live in Canada. I have bad hyperpigmentation all over my body from the skin trauma from eczema. I'm at least 2 shades darker than my natural complexion and I absolutely hate the greyish hue hyperpigmentation tends to have on my skin. My eczema is under control (I'm not scratching anymore), but now I'm dealing with the aftermath of the mess it made on my skin. The dermatologists in my province in Canada are useless!!! All they do is diagnose you with Eczema and try to push topical steroids on you (which destroy your skin in the end) - and otherwise you're on your own to suffer and figure it out on your own. My eczema was life altering. It was a nightmare. People do not understand how bad eczema can be, how long it can last for and how much it can hinder your life. The skin is the largest organ of the body....think of burn victims....when the burns are severe enough and cover too much of their body, they pass away. Do you do international consultations? Because I really would appreciate talking to a P.O.C. dermatologist about my skin issues from eczema.

This is a great tutorial I’d like to see how to treat Blackheads
