I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist for after care. I recommend silicone gel with growth factors and hyperbaric oxygen to promote healing. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
I don't recommend doing a TCA peel yourself. These should be administered by a professional. See a cosmetic dermatologist for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer
