TCA Peel for Indian Skin, Olive to Dark, Loss of Pigmentation? (photo)

I have olive to dark skin that is oily and acne prone. the acne is under control but i used a 30% TCA peel. I think let it frost too much because the resulting top layer of dead skin is now hard and very dark. I moisturize a lot but it started cracking on the third day and I can see my new skin looking quite pink. i'm using a skin restore serum (mebo) and a moisturizer daily to slow it down and help my pigmentation along. how do I prevent loss of color and what if it happens? still peeling.
