I had tca peel with dermatologist in 2021 . I did everything as instructed but my amine was left with some red dots that eventually turned white . Is there any treatment, laser that can help with this ? What about IPL? Or Microneedeling? Anything? I am 34 years old white Caucasian woman. Thank you!
Over 3 months ago i had TCA cross done by a dermatologist for treatment of deep acne scars. The healing post treatment has been one of the most traumatic experiences. All research online told me that it would take a month to heal but here i am 3 months later and my face is red and filled with larger more prominent holes. I really need some advice. I feel like this is not normal but my derm seems to think so. Its causing me some extreme stress atm.
Tca cross redness still there after 8 months Got tca cross done by doctor for acne scars. Scars have improved a lot but its very red even after 8 months an the healing is like forming a ring like healing. Meaning if it was a circle scar, the center has lifted but edges are still down. What to do? Please help

I am about to turn 40, and a friend insisted that she could take nearly 10 years off of my face through a 50% TCA Chemical Peel. Everything seemed okay, but after 5 days I noticed that my cheek area (both sides) had developed a bright red rash which is a bit swollen, feverish, and somewhat uncomfortable. Was it too strong for me? When will this subside and what can I do to make it better? I feel stupid and had never done anything like this before and never will again.
I had upper blepharoplasty and a lower chemical peel 35 % tca. I am still SO pink/red! Could this be a bad reaction? Will it ever go back to my normal skin color? I always worn very little to no makeup and I actually had to go purchase makeup to cover this up for public outings. Im terrified it will never look normal again and Ill always look like a raccoon. I sent photos to my plastic surgeon and expressed my concern but he told me it was normal. From what Ive seen its not.
I put 30% TCA on my scars on Saturday night... I read to dip a toothpick into the TCA and apply pressure into the scar and hold for a few seconds. My scars all appear rounded like the impression of a toothpick mark now. They dont seem to look any better at all and its been 3 days. they are wider and deeper and slightly scabbed over and the scabs that have come off are BRIGHT red... Any suggestions on what I can do? Or if this is normal? Or how bad did I damage my skin? Thanks
I had a 15% TCA peel done at a clinic 5 days ago. I'm not sure but I think I may have had a bad reaction as some areas still feel hot and a bit sore when I put cream on. Anyway, I was very stupid to peel some skin away myself on one side of my face, and my skin is fairly red/pink under it. Is this likely to fade in time? I wish I'd just been patient and left it.
I live in Asia & am home for 2 weeks. Want to get my legs tan while in the U.S. I got a mild/med TCA peel & after I washed it my face was very red. I put on high SPF and went shopping, then to the tan salon. I turned off the face/shoulder lamps & covered my face with a towel & clothes immediately. My face was very red/swollen that night & next day. It is day 2, swelling/redness improved but still prominent. Is it the peel or a burn? If it is a burn, what do i do?? I'm kinda panicking!
Six days ago I had a 20% TCA peel. However, I stupidly did not disclose that I had received a glycolic peel peel a week prior (I really wanted results, fast). I had been using retin a in perpetration also. All the skin has peeled off on my face and left two, bright red patches under my eyes that I think are becoming slightly raised. Am I in the process of becoming permanently scarred? I am very concerned. I have prescription cortisone and also silicone gel. What can I do?! Thank you!
