12.5% TCA Peel to Face - Raleigh, NC

Thank you so much!

May I ask why you would not use oils on exposed skin? I have never heard that before. Coconut oil is antibacterial. I use oils and butters with no problems.

Wow sounds great! Good for you!

I found that glycolic acid actually burned A LOT more than my tca peels and showed less results. That made me ponder why that would happen.

I meant is the temporary effect on wrinkles while permanent effect on scars?

Great to see people with positive results rather than negative ones. I used glycolic and lactic acid combos for a yr before giving up on them. They showed no results at all. 15% tca seems to show good results with no issues so I will be sticking with that.

it is really hard so what I would do is go in the bathroom with manicure scissors and trim away then apply aquaphor. This has great results for my skin but if you are vain... TCA isn't for you lol. Going out in public can be brutal for a few days

I will continue to post pics & progress... it requires patience but I can see the results & feel them already. As for the picking... I would treat myselfnto a bathroom visit with manicure scissors to cut of excess and the apply aquaphor. Lol

Oh boy...patience right:)

I agree. That's been the hardest part for me... feeling embarrassed with people staring at my peeling skin. And they will stare, even if they don't mean to do it. Just ignore them. Do your thing and know it will end. Oils and butters have always been my best friends.

TCA will respond more quickly to skin that has been using a retinoid A. which i have been for 6 months. It was neutalized, but I have always had incredibly sensitive skin... hense the reason I started with 12%. for someone of my skin tone and sensitivity I can't go higher.

Thank you and I always love help from someone who knows much more about this. I have done a trial TCA peel to my stomach and I am unsure of how the skin will respond.

Try chamomile distillate spray on face after invasive therapies, make an oat flour mask mixed with raw honey, jojoba oil, avocado oil or neem butter, plus a nice chaotic skin essential oil blend , Burdock Extract, I also add herbs like lemon grass, lavender flowers, rose hips, sage, raspberry leaf, orange peel, rose buds, there are two places I can recommend to make this ultra calming, anti inflammatory, anti bacterial, moisturizing mask Essential Wholesale, Starwest Botanicals. Cleansing with Konjac Sponges or Raw Honey will also speed up your healing time. Hope this was a help to you. Stick with the 12% peels or go to a professional. Thanks Hope owner of Urskinsworthit

Love how natural remedies are being recommended!! I use them as well and you'd be amazed at how their results can be quicker and more effective than store-bought alternatives.
