Abstract
BACKGROUND
Retinoid products are becoming increasingly popular due to their efficacy and mild side effect profile. A few cases of epidermal stripping with wax depilation have been reported, but all have been associated with oral retinoid use.
AIMS
We aim to increase awareness of this adverse effect.
METHODS
N/A Results: N/A Conclusion: While retinoid products are effective and have a low side effect profile, they may still cause adverse effects including the possibility of epidermal stripping with wax depilation.
