I have bad keratosis pilaris on my upper arms. It's not bumpy--just a lot of very red spots under the top layer of my skin. I used 30% TCA a few days ago, at the moment it's doing nothing. Is it possible that my skin will still start peeling, and is it safe to use it again or should I wait? Is TCA a good solution for keratosis pilaris? If not, do you know what is? Thanks.
Keratosis pilaris or KP is a chronic condition and can be improved by TCA peels. I would recommend a daily regimen of exfoliation with a combination of KP Pads (brand name) and ammonium lactate. This will help unclog the keratin plugs.
Hi. I would like to get rid of some visible blood vessels and fine lines (pigmentation) that I seem to get even if I mostly keep out of the sun. I am 19 years of age, with very light skin, and I've had laser done to remove these dark lines before. Sadly though, they keep coming back, and I was thinking of getting a TCA Peel. Would it be more effective?
If so, what TCA % would you recommend for fair-skinned individuals. I am confident in your knowledge in this area as well as the suggestions I'd get. Thank u very much.

A TCA peel would help correct static wrinkles and skin atrophy around the lower eyelids. It will not correct dynamic wrinkles, as Botox is the best treatment for laugh lines.
The marks that are a red/brown color were left by cysts. Would a TCA chemical peel have any effect on them?
Yes, a TCA peel will improve post inflammatory hyperpigmentation in combination with a sound topical skin care regimen.
