TCA Peel or Fraxel Lite (4 passes) for maximum collagen production. Which is more effective?

July 16, 2014
Asked By:hbaby in Yorba Linda, CA

I'm considering both the TCA and Fraxel treatments for overall improvement of facial wrinkles, somewhat sagging jowl area and loose skin at upper and lower eyelids. I don't like the long lasting redness that Fraxel causes so I lean toward the peel. Does a TCA peel even compare to the Fraxel laser in overall results or would I be better off with the Fraxel. Recovery and cost are both big factors for me. I'm in the Orange County, CA
