How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Acid Type = 1, Concentration = 30, Skin Sensitivity = 2, Previous Peels = 2 = 5 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Peel Depth
    Peel Depth
    Superficial = Superficial
  3. Calculate Recovery Time
    3 = 3
  4. Calculate Peeling Starts
    Peeling Starts
    2 = 2
