I can't use Lactic Acid because I can't tolerate the itchy sensation. I am contemplating btw using a Malic Acid or TCA peel... BTW, I have Black skin and am using Retina A. I have been using Triluma for my melasma for the past 2 weeks and haven't seen results and don't think I will. I use SPF 30 too.

At-home peels

Very BAD idea! You need supervised care from a boarded doctor. There have been MANY MANY at home peels that have disfigured individual users. Be careful From MIAMI DR. B
