Abstract
We describe our experience with two patients with xeroderma pigmentosum who underwent multiple trichloroacetic acid chemical peels. Trichloroacetic acid and phenol were used in one case. Until now numerous treatment modalities have been reported. Deep chemical peeling has not been reported before in patients with xeroderma pigmentosum. Chemical peeling is a simple procedure with less associated morbidity.
