Could it be healthy to peel skin off?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and No: Chemical peels and dermabrasion performed by trained healthcare professionals are commonly performed procedures for individuals who need it. Having skin peeled off by an untrained healthcare provider or without a medical indication would not be a healthy choice.
