I learned this on RXderm and apparently, it is a miracle and I have no idea how it works and who figured it out: compound lovastatin and cholesterol cream. Available on Chemistry Rx and Skin Medicinals.
When I did peels, I used 20%. Nothing I had ever tried topically worked well.
Some have used lovastatin alone, and it apparently works also.

Works well and is not very irritating.
