    cosmetic treatment using chemicals to exfoliate skin layers

    Chemical peels, also known as chemexfoliation or derma peeling, are cosmetic treatments that involve applying a chemical solution to the skin to remove its outer layers. This process helps to improve the appearance of the skin by reducing wrinkles, scars, and discoloration, and can also stimulate new skin growth. The depth of the peel can vary, ranging from superficial to deep, depending on the type of chemical used and the desired outcome.

It could serve as an alternative to minoxidil and finasteride, but it is not yet available on the market and may take several years to be released.

      The conversation is about the effectiveness of hair loss treatments, specifically finasteride and dutasteride, in different populations. Some users believe that the results of Japanese studies may not be relevant to Caucasian men, especially young ones, and that East Asians may respond better to these treatments. Others argue that clinical studies should be the basis for decision-making, while acknowledging that individual responses to medications can vary.
