Peels and Peeling Agents, one of twelve titles in Milady's Aesthetician Series, successfully exposes the reader to a broad understanding of the use of specific peeling agents and how they react on the skin. In this text, the author addresses the advanced educational needs of aestheticians and nurses in such settings as medical skin care facilities, day spas and resort spas. Through specific case studies, clinicians will improve their knowledge of the peeling process. These studies validate and underscore the clinical information. Unique to this publication is an expanded chapter dedicated to peeling agents, indications for use and predictable outcomes. Finally, policy and procedure guides show the clinician, physician or facility how to implement ideas and programs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Detailed information in easy to understand language, September 28, 2009

This review is from: Milady's Aesthetician Series: Peels and Peeling Agents (Paperback)

I just received my copy of this book and am so happy I bought it! The information will come in handy when discussing peels as an option for clients. Hyperpigmentation, skin texture and suitable skin types are discussed in depth. As another reviewer stated - this book is no substitute for proper training to administer peels but this will definitely serve as a great reference book on the subject. The scope of material also makes this a good buy. It covers other topics like retinols and reactions to hydroquinone. Some of the book is more of a review (basic skin structure) but in context it helps to remind the reader of all variables to consider regarding chemical peels.

This is a great book to refresh and add to your knowledge but certainly most of these procedures should not be attempted without specific training or supervision of a physician.
