| Description | References 566 Facial skin rejuvenation has always been a topic of great interest. Ancient Egyptians used a variety of methods which included vegetable extracts, mud packs, and soured milk to refresh the skin. The recent era has brought about topical agents such as retinoic acid, retinol, antioxidants, alpha-hydroxy acids, trichloroaectic acid, phenol, and physical modalities such as dermabrasion, microdermabrasion, as well as carbon dioxide and erbium:yttrium-aluminium-garnet (Er:YAG) lasers.
