TCA (TRICHLOROACETIC ACID) Peel

TCA (TRICHLOROACETIC ACID) Peel

is a deeper peel than most superficial peels that just causes mild skin flaking. Downtime will approximately be 1 week. During this time, you will be suggested to use a moisturizer if you want to hasten the peeling process. Make sure to use sun protection since the skin becomes more sensitive.

Greatly improves acne and blackheads by shedding away the outer layer of skin that blocks infection in the pores, allowing the infection to clear out and the pores to heal.

 TCA Peel is great for sun-damaged, dry, or flaky skin and dark spots. Hyper pigmentation and age spots lighten or disappear by the peeling action of TCA, which sheds off those damaged surface skin cells, revealing new, smoother skin beneath.

FAQ: TCA Peel

Will TCA actually remove acne scars, spots, and wrinkles? 

  Yes, depending on the depth of scars, TCA will greatly improve the appearance, if not remove them altogether. TCA removes the outer 2 layers of skin (epidermis) and therefore decreases the depth of wrinkles and fine lines; also removes discolorations and age spots.

Is there any pain involved? 

 Yes, you will feel some burning for 3-4 minutes. But you will notice the burning diminishing as the minutes go by. After rinsing the skin with cool water, the burning subsides.

How do I know what strength to use?  

You’ll use a weak solution (10-15%) for a "lunchtime peel" or a stronger solution (20-35%) for a medium depth peel. Usually peels stronger than 35% are for thick skin problems such as calluses.

Will my skin be red or pink after the peel and how long does that last?  Yes, your skin will have a pinkish color for a few weeks after peeling has completed, depending on the strength solution used. This can be concealed with makeup.

 (Note: A yellow based foundation will counteract redness)

What precautions / care do I need to take after the treatment? 

While you are healing you should stay out of the direct sun (including tanning beds), and always use a sunscreen of at least SPF25. Direct sun can cause the skin to darken and you may reverse the benefits of the peel. But with TCA (Trichloroacetic) acid peels, scarring and brown discoloration of the skin is unlikely unless the client goes to a tanning salon after having the treatment or lays out in the sun. Daily sunscreen use should continue indefinitely to prevent new photo damage from occurring.

Is one treatment enough? 

 One treatment is all that is needed for many skin imperfections. For serious skin problems, more than one treatment may be required.

How often can I apply a TCA peel?  

The TCA solution can be applied more than once for deeper skin problems. Wait at least 4 to 6 weeks between treatments. The skin needs to be totally healed before applying the solution again.
