Chemical peeling in exfoliative chelitis
I was diagnosed with exfoliative chelitis around 6 months back.
The doctor recommended moisturization and antifungal creams but nothing happened.
Then I visited 3-4 new doctors and they didn't even know what EC is.
Recently another doctor told me to go for chemical peeling of my lips. I am not sure if this will be safe for my lips. Should I go for it or not?
