In our office, we perform many chemical peels and TCA 15% treatments can be performed at 4 week intervals. I would suggest using a alpha beta hydroxy acid treatment pad such as Melapads once or twice daily in between sessions. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

How soon after a 35% TCA peel can you use skincare products with AHAs in it?
Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS says:

Once the skin has epithelialized, it is ok to use an exfoliating cream. In our office, we advise patients to begin Melarase creams (Melarase AM and Melarase PM) to help reduce pigmentation after a chemical peel. Best, DR. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
