Can I do a TCA cross treatment for my acne scars at 1 month or more after my CO2 laser?

Asked By:KatieShaun in Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
Will my face get irritated? I’ve read people get irritation and break outs when they use exfoliants 1 month after co2 laser, that being said, I have 3 more session is CO2 laser and I want to go to a different clinic for TCA cross because it’s really hard to find that treatment here in UAE. It’s been 2 weeks since my CO2 and I have slightly pink skin with lots of acne but not on my scars, next time I do CO2 I’ll only do it on my scars,y skin feels softer but the pitted scars are still very visible and I have wide pores
