WORTH IT$600

After taking advice from the Realself community, I finally went for a TCA 30% peel. It was applied at my doctor's office (he is a plastic surgeon) on Tuesday morning. It's Sunday and the last part of the dead skin peeled off my face this afternoon. I am very happy with the result since the general state of my skin has visibly improved, the fine lines around my eyes, my mouth and on my forehead are gone!
The process was pretty painful for 10 minutes, unpleasant for 5 days since your face turns brown and crunchy, but it is sincerely worth it. I have been applying in thick layers Cytolnat Centella skin cream over my face until now.

Here are some before/after pics.

Leigh2014. I was in your shoes and I did a home peel because of the high cost. My review is like #2 on the relevance list, feel free to check it out. My face looked much like his as I was healing; however, when I healed, I was left with very slight scarring that is improving all the time. If I had a do-over, I would go to the doctors office. Also, I have read that many online direct-to-consumer websites are selling a highly caustic version (not medical grade, but some kind of industrial grade) to unsuspecting consumers. Do be careful if you decide to do the peel at home. Even if you do everything right, you could end up with a less than desirable result. I have been down that road and I am currently saving up for a TCA peel...at the doctors office! :) Best of luck to you in your journey, whatever you decide. Just be sure to come back and tell us how it went for you! We can always use more reviews!
