Lemon Peel

Lemon peel is an infiltrated area of ​​skin that resembles the peel of a lemon due to the clearly visible mouths of the skin glands. This phenomenon occurs due to the use of an anesthetic solution that is injected into the patient's skin and causes it to infiltrate.

The anesthetic solution contains substances that block nerve impulses and reduce pain. However, if such solutions are used incorrectly, they can cause skin infiltration and the formation of lemon peel.

Infiltrated skin becomes denser and acquires a characteristic color. As a result of this process, the openings of the skin glands become more visible and give the skin a lemon peel appearance. This effect may last for several days after the injection.

Lemon peel is not a serious complication, but may cause discomfort to the patient. To avoid this effect, it is necessary to follow the rules for using anesthetic solutions and select the correct dose of the drug.



Lemon peel (anesthetic fringe) is a concept used to describe a small area of ​​the epidermis treated with an anesthetic. This term appeared in aesthetic medicine and has become a household name, since the action can create a number of effects associated with a change in appearance.

Lemon peel differs from real fruit only in its bright, large pores, which are the ducts of the sebaceous glands. Although the effect may vary depending on how carefully you used the drug, many people experience the phenomenon when using topical inhalation. The most common effects are:

Porous areas visible to the naked eye, often comparable to the appearance of a yellow peel. Increase in body volume, as if gel is accumulating in them. Narrows pores and reduces visibility. The skin in this area quickly turns pale.
