ABSTRACT
ABOUT PHENOL Many things have been said about this molecule, some represent the truth, others are only urban legends. One example of truth: it is possible to remove completely the wrinkles on the upper lip, using phenol peel. One example of legend: the patient can die just after the very first contact with the first drop of phenol. I will not say much about phenol peels, since a little part of a short chapter is not the right place for learning about it. Phenol peel has to be learned hands on, following the patient day after day during at least eight days. Nevertheless, let’s divide our phenol paragraph in two parts: the local phenol and the full-face phenol.
