Abstract
Skin aging is a process that worries many people who seek for medical help to minimize its signs. Facial rejuvenation techniques are abundant and quickly developing, but few may provide such a dramatic improvement as phenol peeling. Severe facial photoaging is its main indication, but pain during and after the procedure, recovery time, and risk of cardiac toxicity may be limiting factors. Therefore, adequate patient selection is fundamental and the procedure should be performed with supportive equipment and staff, cardiac monitoring, and potent analgesia.
