A light to medium depth TCA peel for pigment and wrinkle treatment.

Obagi Blue Peel for Correction
The Obagi Blue peel is a mixture of TCA and Blue Peel Base. A 15% TCA is recommended for normal, sensitive, dry or thin skin for lighter exfoliation.

Obagi Blue Peel
An Obagi Blue Peel is a chemical peel that uses TCA (trichloroacetic acid) to peel the superficial layers of the skin on the face. When properly applied by an experienced physician, it produces a "medium depth" chemical peel to rejuvenate the skin. I believe it to be a peel that is on the "mild" side of the medium depth peels available. It is quite simple to do (when expertly done) and should not be very expensive.
