Exoderm is a newly developed chemical deep-depth peeling method that has been shown to exhibit excellent results in the treatment of a broad spectrum of aging-skin defects. The new formula is devoid of common undesired effects, such as cardiac arrhythmias, long-lasting erythema, depigmentation, and scar formation. Our experience with more than 4000 patients attests to the safety of the method. Exoderm compares favorably with other surgical and nonsurgical procedures for facial rejuvenation.
