Proximate Composition, Mineral Contents and Fatty Acid Composition of the Different Parts and Dried Peels of Tropical Fruits Cultivated in Brazil
The proximate composition, mineral contents and fatty acid composition of different parts (peel, pulp and seeds) of seven tropical fruits were evaluated. Beyond that, this study aims to evaluate the effect of drying processing on peels. Pulp and peel showed highest moisture values (65.7-93.3%), while the seed ranged from 5.8 to 67.2%. The drying processing of peels decreased moisture values (2.3-18.7%). Furthermore, drying processing did not affect ash contents, total crude protein, lipids and fiber values and fatty acid composition for avocado, pineapple, banana, papaya, passion fruit, watermelon and melon. A wide range o...

Advanced chemical peels: phenol-croton oil peel
Once considered the gold standard for deep facial resurfacing, the classical Baker-Gordon phenol-croton oil peel has largely been replaced by formulas with lower concentrations of phenol and croton oil. The improved safety profile of deep peels has ushered in a new era in chemical peeling. Wrinkles can be improved and skin tightened with more subtle and natural results. No longer does a deep peel denote “alabaster white” facial depigmentation with complete effacement of wrinkles. The research of Dr.

Effect of drying conditions on the physical properties of impregnated orange peel
Orange peel represents approximately 30-40 g/100g of the fresh fruit weight and could be used to develop value-added products. Hence, this study aims to evaluate the effects of drying conditions on the physical properties of orange peel impregnated with sucrose solution. The response surface method (RSM) was used to optimize two parameters: drying temperature (35-55 ºC) and air flow rate (2-3 m/s). The measured responses used to determine the effect of dying process conditions were: moisture content. drying time. total soluble solids. color and hardness. The dried orange peels from the optimal process were subjected to a ...

Chemical peels: A review of current practice
Abstract Chemical peels belong to a group of cutaneous resurfacing procedures that are used in the treatment of photoageing, inflammatory dermatoses, epidermal proliferations, pigmentary disorders and scarring. This review describes best current practice, highlights recent advances in chemical peel technology and discusses the recommended uses for different peel types. It also presents the results of a survey of the chemical peeling practices of 30 Australian dermatologists.

1191 Randomized, single-blinded, split-face comparison of superficial chemical peel vs. Nd: YAG laser for the treatment of melasma
While both superficial chemical peels and Nd:YAG laser have been reported to be effective in melasma, there is an absence of side-by-side comparison studies. We prospectively compared chemical peels and laser for melasma at an urban, tertiary care university dermatology practice from January 2014 to January 2015. 20 women, age 18 and older, with at least a 2x2cm patch of melasma on each side of the face (forehead or cheek), were randomized to receive 30% glycolic acid peel on one side of the face and 1064 nm Q-switched laser on the contralateral side.

Flavonoid composition of orange peel extract ameliorates alcohol-induced tight junction dysfunction in Caco-2 monolayer.
In conclusion, OPE derived from sources that contain higher concentrations of PMF are more effective at preventing intestinal barrier dysfunction of TJ proteins induced by ethanol. PMID: 28412402 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Chemical Peels: Deep, Medium, and Light
Facial plast Surg 2019; 35: 239-247 DOI: 10.1055/s-0039-1688944Chemical peels, laser resurfacing, and dermabrasion all offer unique options for skin resurfacing for rhytids and dyschromias. Laser resurfacing has developed over the previous decades, but it is the chemical peel against which all modern forms of skin resurfacing are measured. Phenol–croton oil peels have been modernized and depend on croton oil concentration to minimize risks. Complications associated with skin resurfacing are uncommon with proper technique and postoperative management. [...] Thieme Medical Publishers 333 Seventh Avenue, New York, NY 10001,...

Quantitative Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Chemical Peelings in Reducing Acne Lesions Based on Gray-Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM)
CONCLUSION: The results of this study prove that GLCM analysis is a useful tool for assessing the effectiveness of chemical peel treatments. It can also be used for quantitative assessment of skin texture.PMID:36117771 | PMC:PMC9480591 | DOI:10.2147/CCID.S375131

Medium-depth Trichloroacetic Acid and Deep Phenol–Croton Oil Chemical Peeling for Facial Rejuvenation: An Update
Face-lift is an established rejuvenation modality; however, when performed alone, it lacks the ability to improve the appearance of fine wrinkles and dyschromias that are an important component of facial rejuvenation. Although it is only natural to be attracted by the latest technologically advanced innovative skin resurfacing techniques, chemical peeling has been proven to be a simple and effective method with a relatively good safety profile. Unfortunately, the practice of chemical peeling has relied for a long time on dogmas perpetuated by early reports without any real scientific basis. Moreover, application of peels h...

Unattractive Consequences: Litigation From Facial Dermabrasion and Chemical Peels
Conclusions: Out-of-court settlements and jury-awarded damages were considerable in cases where physicians practicing various (or multiple) specialties were named as defendants. These findings emphasize the need for physicians to thoroughly document potential complications prior to treatment, during the informed-consent process. Additionally, general considerations should be taken into account, such as patient expectations and the potential need for other procedures, which may enhance pretreatment communication and ultimately minimize liability. Finally, it is important to stress that physicians may be held liable for proc...
