Not sure why my previous comment did not go through. anyways...I actually did do a few TCA peels (starting with about 10% and gradually working my way up to 50%), but this was about 2 years ago. As with lactic acid peels, there was no peeling for me and only a stinging and itching sensation. Perhaps I messed up my math and calculated the dilutions wrong?? Well, I hope this works for you!! Keep me posted on your progress, as I am trying to find a quick solution myself

My legs look similar to yours, as I have ingrown hairs and a lot of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). I have type IV skin. Im light but have dark hair and tan easily. I tried laser hair removal but got severe hyperpigmentation from it so I am afraid of doing it again!!. I have used many things from bleaching creams to lactic acid peels. I think hydroquinone 4% was most effective for me in treating the discoloration. But I continue to get ingrown hairs with topical medications and peels. I think you should see a certified dermatologist (cosmetic) and see if peels or laser treatment would be the best option for you. I have been dealing with this for 4 years now. Good luck
