How many times can I perform a TCA peel of 15%.

May 1, 2015
Asked By:Agnes1316 in Miami, FL

I did it a week ago, and back in 2008 I had one done and I remember the dermatologist did it very frequently with me, and I only had 3 sessions done and it let my face like porcelain, clear from age spots and sun damage. I loved it so much that i decided to research and found out I can do it myself. I tried it again this year at 15% and the results after 7 days are amazing. When can I perform another TCA?
