TCA peels are a great way to improve the look of your skin, be sure if you are a newbie to skin peels you do plenty of research to be sure this is the right type of peel and strength for your skin type. TCA can be diluted to a strength appropraite for your skin with water. 

Individuals with sensitive skin or newbies should start with glycolic acids first then graduate to TCA - A 5-15% strength is recommened for newbies. If you are a seasoned chemical peel user and need a stronger acid to remove layers of skin than 15-25% is recommended. TCA peels are NOT recommended for perople with darker skin types as hypopigmentation can occur ( patches of missing skin color). Please be sure to do the proper research!  Do NOT begin with the 20% or 25% TCA unless you have used 15% several times successfully.

FDA - Sun Sensitivity Alert Clients need to be aware that by using glycolic acid and other peeling products, your skin will be more photo-sensitive than normal. It is recommended that you use a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15, preferably SPF 30 or higher, after using skin peel products. The FDA recommends using an SPF for one week post-peel.

NORMAL SIDE EFFECTS:

* Swelling

* Redness/soreness of application area

* Rashing/flaking/peeling (peeling generally starts the 3rd-5th day)

* Temporary darkening of skin (once peeling starts these will (in most cases) dissapear). Exposing your skin to the sun after an acid application can cause temporary or possibly permaneant darkening of the skin.

* Frosting (TCA can cause this) of the skin

* Blemishes/acne may occur follwing a skin peel as the pores are being deeply cleansed by acids - this is NORMAL

*Sensitivity to the sun and other products - Other skin products may burn or feel uncomfortable to use immediately following a peel. 

It is extremely important to remember that a chemical peel is the willful application of an ACID to produce a controlled injury to the skin. By intentionally causing “damage”, ythe acids cause the outermost layers of the epidermis to slough off to reveal newer, fresher skin.
