Croton Oil Peel
Advanced Skin Rejuvenation for Lasting Results
The Croton Oil Peel is an advanced chemical peel designed to address deeper skin concerns, making it especially popular among men and women over the age of 50 who are seeking dramatic skin rejuvenation.
While it’s ideal for those experiencing more pronounced signs of aging, it can also be a game-changer for individuals of any age looking to tackle stubborn skin issues and achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance. Whether you’re looking to smooth fine lines and deep wrinkles, reduce stubborn pigmentation, or improve overall skin tone and texture, this treatment delivers remarkable results that go beyond traditional options.
What Are the Benefits of a Croton Peel?
The Croton Oil Peel offers both immediate and long-lasting benefits:
- Targeted application: Treat specific areas, like under the eyes for crepey skin or around the mouth to erase vertical smoker’s lines.
- Deep wrinkle reduction: Especially effective for fine lines and deeper wrinkles around the eyes and mouth.
- Even skin tone: Reduces sunspots, pigmentation, and discoloration for a more uniform complexion.
- Tighter skin texture: Improves skin elasticity and overall smoothness.
- Long-lasting results: Achieve dramatic improvements that last for years, not months.
- Reduced reliance on injectables: A lower-maintenance option for those wanting fewer touch-ups.
- Pre-cancerous growth removal: Potentially removes certain pre-cancerous lesions as part of the peeling process.

What Results Can You Expect?
Patients often see:
- Noticeable reduction in fine lines and deeper wrinkles.
- Firmer, smoother skin with a refreshed glow.
- More even pigmentation and improved texture.
These results last for years, making the Croton Peel a long-term investment in your confidence and appearance.
How Does It Compare to Other Treatments?
When considering whether the Croton Peel is right for you, here’s how it stacks up against other options:
Croton Peel vs. FaceTite: FaceTite focuses on tightening and contouring deeper layers, while the Croton Peel rejuvenates surface-level concerns like pigmentation, file lines, and deep wrinkles. In some patients, combining the two treatments can enhance the overall outcome and optimize results.
Croton Peel vs. Facelift: A facelift addresses sagging skin and structural concerns, while the Croton Peel improves skin texture and quality. For those with sagging and textural issues, a combination approach may be recommended.
Dr. Barnsley often recommends the Croton Peel for patients who want to significantly improve their skin’s appearance without undergoing surgery or as part of a larger facial rejuvenation plan.
