Dr. Fulton Chemical Peel Lecture 2013
Here's is a video of the late Dr. James E. Fulton, Jr. imparting a lecture about chemical peels, shot at Vivant Skin Care HQ in Miami Lakes, FL during the spring of ...
Ask to treat 'Hooding' on eyelid/over eyesI've had numerous chemical peels,
& CO2 lasers performed over the last 2 decades. I had the stupid thought I
could research YouTube, buy the various products off eBay and do a 50% TCA
peel on myself. I had had two separate Phenol peels done in my 20's (by a
Dr.) and ended up with beautiful porcelain virgin skin. I was not afraid of
using the TCA acid on myself since phenol is a much much much stronger
acid. The first mistake I made was thinking I could do it on myself. The
deadly mistake was using too much TCA. I must have layered it, or perhaps
the eBay product shipped was not pharmaceutical grade 50% TCA as stated. My
skin frosted, I applied a good amount of neutralizer afterward. My face was
red on the first and 2nd day. On the third day my face swelled up like a
football, to the point my eyes were barely showing. The swelling finally
started to disparate on day 6. My skin then shed over the next 12 days. The
depth of the peel on my forehead ended up paralyzing all of the muscles &
nerves (elated with this result since Botox does not work for me). My deep
furrowed CREVICES (not simple wrinkles) between my eyes & on my forehead
were COMPLETELY gone after a month as well as the smaller ones around my
eyes, lower lip, & the crape paper skin in the hollows of my cheeks. The
deep furrows that ran along my upper lip were only minimized by about 50%.
The skin on my for head ended up with the shriveled texture your fingers
get after being soaked in hot water for too long. It's now been 6 months
and to my relief this texture is settling into smooth glossy skin again.
The detrimental factor I am left with is a raised deep thick massive red
scar which runs along my entire lower jaw line. Foundation does not hide
this mess. I am now left with a huge scar along my entire jaw bone. Can
you please share your information on treatment? Will a CO2 laser help to
minimize this...... another(or several lighter) chemical peels????? What
was I thinking!
+Ann Conlan The scar along the jaw-line was caused by deep penetration of TCA INTO THE SEBACEOUS DERMAL LAYER.Some scars, especially when raised, may be improved with dermabrasion and laser resurfacing. These are methods a surgeon uses to make “rough or elevated” scars less prominent, by removing part of the upper layers of skin with an abrading tool or laser light. Clearly, the scar will remain, but will be smoother and less visible.Various surgical techniques for scar revision are designed to make the scar as smooth and invisible as possible. This can involve recreating the incision, moving skin around or even moving the scar to make it less visible. What would work best for your specific scar will depend on where it is located and how it looks, your surgeon will evaluate you and discuss the options for revision surgery. For now, topical products will help in pre-conditioning the skin prior to any of the treatments above.Our recommendation:A.M.Cleanse with Buffing Grains Exfoliating Cleanser.Tone with Normalizing TonicTreat with Spin Trap Antioxidant Serum, layered with Rejuv Rx.Protect with Day Trestment Lotion SPF15.P.M.Cleanse with Buffing Grains Exfoliating Cleanser.Tone with Normalizing TonicTreat with Derm-A-Renew layered with Rejuv Rx.Apply Derm-A-Renew every other night for the first ten days,then apply nightly.For an even more customized regimen, visit: //www.vivantskincare.com/index.php/skin-support-center/custom-regimen-advisor.html. Good luck!
Dr. Fulton was an awesome doctor and teacher. I was a patient of Dr.
Fulton's for several years in Newport Beach,Ca. and i have been using
Vivant's skincare products for 18 years. He was, in every sense of the
word, a gentleman. He is sorely missed. There will NEVER be another like
him.
Thanks for the comment and kind words, No One! Yes, he is already missed...
