However, it may be used at slightly higher or lower NV to obtain specific effects in certain types of baked goods. 

Resiniferatoxin (RTX) is the toxin isolated from the spurge Euphorbia resinifera which is responsible for the powerful burning sensation and skin irritation induced by the milky sap of these plants.

Once the desired frost is achieved, the skin can be rinsed off with water, or cooled down with cool wet compresses which are applied to the skin. The wet compresses can provide a welcome relief to the burning induced by the peel. Unlike glycolic peels the water does not neutralize the peel, as the frosting indicates the end-point of the reaction rather, it dilutes any excess TCA. The compresses can be repeated several times until the burning sensation has subsided. Subsequently, a layer of ointment such as plain petrolatum or Aquaphor is applied and post-peel instructions and what to expect are reviewed with the patient prior to discharge to home. 

After the tape mask removal the exudate is cleaned by sterile saline. Spot peeling and retaping may be done if the skin looks underpeeled, particularly in areas with severe wrinkling.

Other options include occlusive moisturizers, antibiotic ointments, and biosynthetic occlusive dressings such as Meshed Omiderm.
