Yes, and then some. A peel is a lighter form of exfoliation. Think: abrasion.... they are literally taking a "drill" of sorts to your scars. Kind of like a router. My face is moderately scarred, I'm worse then most, but not half as bad as some. I would probably be bandaged up for a few. It's gonna suck if I ever make up my mind to do it.

But hell, if I do that, I may as well get a tummy tuck and have my ass lyposuctioned!
