TCA Cross healing concerns. What can I do? (Photo)

March 5, 2023
Asked By:MWMom in Beverly Hills, California

I had CO2 + fraxel peel 5 mths ago, but still had ice pick scars on nose + forehead, so got 30% TCA cross 3 1/2 weeks ago. Since then, I've been staying indoors, keeping wounds wet with growth factors, Neova Clinical Repair Copper Peptide Cream (which is a thick vaseline-like cream), Noeva Cu3 Recovery Lotion + emu oil. They don't seem to be healing. I eat a nutrient-dense diet, no smoking or alcohol, but as I'm keeping wounds moist, scabs have not developed. What to do? Thank you
